The roots of Mumbai's trade-off defying squad were in 2010, when the franchise had the foresight to establish a scouting network comprising six scouts, which would be led by the former India and Mumbai head coach John Wright from 2015. The network was astonishingly effective at identifying brilliant young talent. The biggest success story was the 19 year-old Jasprit Bumrah, plucked out of age-group cricket in Gujarat before becoming the world's best quick and the spearhead of Mumbai's pace attack.

The all-rounders Hardik and Krunal Pandya were also products of Mumbai's scouting and also would become the fulcrums of Mumbai's team. The Pandya brothers and Bumrah were the three headline recruits of a stellar list of players unearthed by the scouts. Mumbai could also credit identifying Yuzvendra Chahal, Mayank Markande, Rahul Chahar, Shreyas Gopal, Suryakumar Yadav, Kuldeep Yadav, Axar Patel and Nitish Rana to their network. This stellar group - all identified by Mumbai, though some later thrived for different franchises - were the dividend on Mumbai's scouting investment.
