MI Emirates is the sister franchise of the Mumbai Indians (MI), which is owned by Indiawin Sports, led by Reliance Industries. The franchise was founded in 2022, and in 2023, it unveiled its logo and jersey in January through its social media handles. They have qualified for the playoffs in all three seasons and won the tournament in 2024.
Since taking over the leadership, Pollard has led the group to the final of the tournament. However, the franchise could not defend its trophy after losing to Desert Vipers last season. The Vipers won their maiden title by beating one of the most successful franchises of the tournament. Pollard would look to bring back the glory once again this season.
