Mumbai Indians had begun IPL 2014 on a horror note with 5 consecutive defeats. However, they had qualified for the play-offs in that season. It's not wise to rule out a similar comeback from MI this season but if early signs are anything to go by, Mumbai lack the quality that defined them ever since Rohit took over the leadership role in 2013.
