Mumbai Indians In 2010 IPL Season
The performance of Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League 2010 season, spectacularly captained by Sachin Tendulkar, was nothing short of superb. The team managed to win 11 out of 14 matches with the team’s ace player Sachin performing with the bat on most occasions. Although the team ended up as first runners up, losing to Chennai Super Kings, their performance throughout the tournament had been most consistent. This season, the team will definitely look to rock the tournament with the new players it acquired during the auctions and a few old it succeeded in retaining.
