Mumbai Indians New Jersey: The joint-most successful team in IPL history, the Mumbai Indians, released a teaser for their new look as the 2024 season draws near.
The Mumbai-based team posted a video to social media with the tagline, “First Look: Our Stars in Our New Kit.”
Stars from the team, including recently appointed captain Hardik Pandya, Ishan Kishan, Jasprit Bumrah, Rohit Sharma, and Suryakumar Yadav, among others, can be seen strutting the team’s new shirt for the season.
Before the season began, Mumbai successfully signed Pandya from the Gujarat Titans, causing a commotion. They then announced that the 30-year-old all-rounder will take over as captain, succeeding the veteran Rohit, who has led the Mumbai team to numerous victories over the years.

Between 2014 to 2022, Pandya was a member of the Mumbai Indians team. In 2022, he joined the newly established Gujarat Titans.
In his debut season as the Ahmedabad-based team’s captain, he excelled as he guided them to the championship in their very first trophy campaign.
He continued his good run by taking the Gujarat side to the final of the following season, only to stumble in the final hurdle as they lost the title to MS Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings.

Mumbai signed Sri Lankan seam players Nuwan Thushara and Dilshan Madushanka, as well as South African pacer Gerald Coetzee, and they acquired some amazing bowling potential.
The five-time champions also selected Indians Shreyas Gopal, Shivalik Sharma, Anshul Kamboj, and Naman Dhir, as well as Afghanistan veteran Mohammad Nabi to strengthen the team.
On March 24, MI will make their season debut against GT at Ahmedabad, marking Pandya’s comeback to the team.
