When MI lifted the IPL trophy for the fifth time in 2020, they became only the second team to win the tournament in consecutive seasons after CSK (2010 and 2011).

The Mumbai-based team has made it to the playoffs in 10 seasons. Apart from five victories, MI have been runners-up once and reached Qualifier 2 and Eliminator twice each (including the second Qualifying Final and Elimination Final).

13 wins registered by MI in the 2013 season are the joint-most victories in a single IPL season (including the knockouts/playoffs).
