Earlier, many franchises opposed the idea of MI playing at the Wankhede Stadium as the familiarity could give them undue home advantage. While the BCCI first decided to shift Mumbai Indians to Pune, they later decided against the idea and went ahead with MI playing four matches at the Wankhede Stadium.
