Last Year’s Performance Summary (IPL 2024)

Mumbai Indians (MI) – IPL 2024 Performance

Mumbai Indians had an inconsistent run in IPL 2024, struggling with injuries and form issues. Despite brilliant individual performances from Suryakumar Yadav and Jasprit Bumrah, they failed to maintain momentum throughout the season. Their middle-order inconsistencies and bowling struggles cost them key matches, ultimately leading to a mid-table finish. MI missed out on the playoffs and will look for a stronger comeback in 2025.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) – IPL 2024 Performance

Royal Challengers Bengaluru had a mixed campaign in IPL 2024, with Virat Kohli leading from the front with the bat. However, their bowling attack lacked consistency, often struggling in high-pressure games. Despite a few dominant wins, they couldn’t sustain form when it mattered the most. RCB failed to qualify for the playoffs and will aim for a better-balanced squad in IPL 2025.
