Exclusive | 'Not trying to reinvent the wheel': Luke Williams backs MI's core for WPL 2027

New Mumbai Indians head coach Luke Williams, a previous WPL champion with Royal Challengers Bengaluru, arrives at the franchise to lead a team that secured two titles in four seasons. He intends to avoid making massive structural changes to a side that struggled in the2026 season due to lack of consistency and health issues among key players like Hayley Matthews and Nat Sciver-Brunt.

Last season, the team finished with three wins and five losses, despite strong individual contributions from Harmanpreet Kaur, Nat Sciver-Brunt, and Amelia Kerr. While the team maintained a positive net run rate, Williams's approach will focus on settling combinations and winning crucial, tight matches.
