Team History
Mumbai Indians (MI) is a Mumbai-based IPL franchise. The official IPL team page lists the owner as Indiawin Sports Pvt. Ltd.
The franchise competed from the Indian Premier League's inaugural 2008 season as one of the original city sides. Crichub records foundedYear as 2008 on that first-season membership; day-level auction chronology is not locked on this profile.
The official IPL Mumbai Indians team page lists Venue as Wankhede Stadium. Individual matches may still be staged elsewhere; Wankhede is the franchise's listed primary venue, not a guarantee for every fixture.
The same IPL team page lists IPL title years 2013, 2015, 2017, 2019, and 2020. Season tables, playoff paths, and match results remain year-specific and should be confirmed from IPL records for that season.
Leadership roles change by season. At editorial check against the IPL team page, the site displayed Captain: Hardik Pandya and Coach: Kieron Pollard — season-dated observations, not permanent titles.
Notable player associations recorded on Crichub (franchise relationships only): Rohit Sharma and Jasprit Bumrah are associated as current Mumbai Indians players for the IPL 2026 retention cycle, based on the official TATA IPL 2026 player retentions announcement and Mumbai Indians' own retention release. Their India national affiliations belong on the India team profile.
