Mumbai Indians skipper Rohit Sharma has conceded that it was an “unexpected season” for the five-time Indian Premier League champions, having finished last in IPL-15, and added that “unity in the team” was the biggest takeaway as the side aims to find its winning ways next season.

IPL-15 turned out to be the worst season for Mumbai Indians with the side winning just four league games and losing 10 to finish 10th and last. Gujarat Titans took the lucrative league by storm, winning the title in their first year itself, with former Mumbai Indians all-rounder Hardik Pandya leading from the front.
