Kings XI Punjab bring in Yuvraj, Axar and Stoinis, MI bring back Lewis for Pollard

The Holkar Cricket Stadium, with its lights switched on, presented a lovely sight from up above the sky as the aircraft descended on the Indore Airport on Wednesday night. A young woman showed her little son the ground and said cheerfully, “Mumbai Indians will be playing Kings XI Punjab there.”

In a much less enthusiastic tone, she added, “But the team keeps on losing.”

This has indeed been a season of disappointment for the loyal MI fans like her. To say that Rohit Sharma’s men have underperformed would be an understatement.
