The Mumbai Indians (MI) are the most successful franchise in the history of the Indian Premier League (IPL), having won the prestigious title five times. Their journey to dominance began in 2013 when they clinched their maiden IPL trophy under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma. In the final, MI defeated the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) by 23 runs, marking the start of a golden era for the team.
In 2015, MI secured their second IPL title, once again defeating CSK, this time by a commanding 41-run margin in the final. The team showcased their consistency and resilience, becoming a force to be reckoned with in the league. Two years later, in 2017, MI claimed their third IPL trophy in a nail-biting final against the Rising Pune Supergiant, winning by just one run—the closest margin in IPL history.
The 2019 season saw MI lift their fourth IPL title, edging out CSK by one run in another thrilling final. This victory solidified their reputation as a team that thrives under pressure. In 2020, MI continued their dominance, defeating the Delhi Capitals by five wickets in the final to claim their fifth IPL trophy. This win made them the first team in IPL history to win five titles, a record they still hold.
In addition to their IPL success, MI have also won the Champions League Twenty20 (CLT20) twice. They secured their first CLT20 title in 2011 by defeating the Royal Challengers Bangalore and added a second in 2013 with a victory over the Rajasthan Royals.
