With Jofra Archer unavailable and Jasprit Bumrah off-colour, Mumbai Indians struggled greatly in the pace department. Daniel Sams, Riley Meredith and Tymal Mills could not provide pace bowling edge to MI. Barring Bumrah, Indian pacers too were not up to the mark in IPL 2022. In the past, Quinton De Kock and Trent Boult were two successful trade-ins.
