Mumbai Indians head coach Mahela Jayawardene has emphasised that the team’s focus remains on process and preparation rather than past records, as they gear up for the IPL 2026 season.
Addressing the media ahead of their opening match, Jayawardene said Mumbai Indians will not alter their preparation despite a history of slow starts.
"We have had close matches in the past that we lost, but the focus is on the intensity we bring to the first game. That is something we can control," he said.
