Star batter Suryakumar Yadav urged one and all to show some patience with an out of sorts five-time champions Mumbai Indians as it currently undergoing a transition phase which will yield results in coming seasons.
MI have already lost their first five matches and it is now near impossible for them to get back into the reckoning for play-offs as they would need to win at least eight of the remaining nine games.
"As you have seen, it is a fresh auction and we are building this team for the next three-four years, coming a few years down the line, you will see some great players coming out from this team," Surya said at the virtual pre-match press conference which was an indicator that MI's current season could well be over even before it reaches mid-phase of the league.
