KIERON POLLARD
Mumbai Indians finished last on the points table in IPL 2022. And one of the reasons for that was the loss of form of their biggest hitter, Kieron Pollard. MI management backed Pollard to come good despite him clearly struggling to hit the big shots.
They backed him so much, that Tim David was benched for the majority of the season and only got to play when MI was out of contention for playoffs and Pollard voluntarily sat out. The former West Indies white-ball captain made 144 runs in 11 matches with a best of 27 at a strike rate of 107.46.
