Before the start of the tournament, Hardik Pandya went through a very poor form in IPL 2024. He failed to make an impression with the bat and ball. Apart from this, Mumbai Indians also could not perform well under his captaincy. When he joined Mumbai Indians after being traded from Gujarat Titans, the fans trolled him fiercely on social media.
This also affected the performance of the team. The Mumbai Indians team could win only 4 out of 14 matches and finished last at the end of the league stage.
