NEW DELHI: Former India spinner Harbhajan Singh feels Mumbai Indians will be successful in the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) provided Tim David and Cameron Green can do the same things which Kieron Pollard and Hardik Pandya used to do for the franchise in the previous editions.
Harbhajan stressed on the fact that a positive start to the tournament is paramount for any team’s success.
“Well, they will be successful if Tim David can do the same thing that Pollard was doing and whether Green can do what Hardik was doing,” Harbhajan told Star Sports.
“But yes, they do have the potential, but IPL is such a tournament that if you start to get going from day one, you will have a good season. If you don’t get going, and you have to find that rhythm, it gets very difficult,” he added.

Mumbai Indians will be looking for redemption in this edition’s IPL after finishing at the bottom of the table in 2022.
Mumbai Indians will open their campaign against Royal Challengers Bangalore in Bengaluru on April 2.
