Lasith Malinga believes Mumbai Indians can recover from their winless streak. Lasith Malinga took to Twitter to express his support for the Mumbai Indians, who have yet to win a game this season.
Mumbai Indians (MI), who are currently in disarray, were defeated by Lucknow Super Giants by 18 runs on Saturday at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai. The team is currently at the bottom of the 10-team table and has yet to win in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 season. Despite their poor form, the Rohit Sharma-led team has received unexpected backing from former player Lasith Malinga. The legendary pacer, who is now the bowling coach for the Rajasthan Royals, took to Twitter to express his support for the franchise and to wish them a “strong finish to the season.”

Avesh Khan was on fire for LSG, taking three wickets in four overs while allowing 30 runs. He explained why Rohit, Dewald Brevis, and Fabian Allen were fired.
