Desired result did not come due to poor 'structuring' of line-up: Mahela Jayawardene
Mumbai Indians head coach Mahela Jayawardene on Thursday admitted that "lack of execution" in close games during this IPL season has been due to the poor "structuring" of line-up, putting them at the bottom of the 10-team table. Mumbai Indians are already out of the IPL having lost eight games on the bounce before logging home their first points. But more importantly, the critics have been vindicated about five-time champions' poor auction strategy. The mediocre bunch of domestic players like Basil Thampi, Jaydev Unadkat, Murugan Ashwin along with purely sentimental retentions like Kieron Pollard and an insane bid of INR 15.25 crore for Ishan Kishan have all contributed to MI's downfall.
