Mumbai Indians will kick-off the 14th edition of Indian Premier League as defending champions. The Mumbai-based franchise is owned by India’s biggest conglomerate, Reliance Industries (RIL), headed by Mukesh Ambani. Currently captained by ace batsman Rohit Sharma, the team has won the winner’s title five times – 2013, 2015, 2017, 2019 and 2020 – and thus, riding high on confidence.
