They have got back the services of their ace player Lasith Malinga and also bagged Yuvraj Singh. Speaking of the new additions, Sachin Tendulkar quoted that he is pretty impressed with the squad for the new edition.

In addition to Yuvraj Singh, Lasith Malinga, Mumbai Indians bagged the services of Barinder Sran, Pankaj Jaiswal, Anmolpreth Singh and Risakh Dar. All of them have been brilliant in the recent domestic tournaments that have been played under BCCI.

A perfect mix of experience – Sachin Tendulkar
