Mumbai Indians have suffered a setback due to Kieron Pollard’s poor striking form in what has been a dreadful IPL 2022 season for them.

They had lost their first eight games in a row. Despite winning the following two games, Mumbai lost their last game, giving them a record nine defeats in an IPL season. So far, the former West Indies skipper has scored 144 runs at a dismal average of 14.40 and a strike rate of 107.46 in 11 games.

In addition, MI will face CSK on May 12, his birthday. This will take a toll on the 34-year-old to perform at his best against Chennai.
