MI is currently ninth in the points table entering this game. They had lost their previous match against LSG before this game. Mumbai Indians fans are divided about Hardik Pandya’s captaincy.
The batsmen included Rohit Sharma. Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Yadav haven’t been reliable enough for the team. Despite the power-hitters like Hardik Pandya and Tim David, the middle-order batting appears to be even more unstable.
KKR are coming off a strong win over the Delhi Capitals in their previous encounter. KKR completed a run phase of 154 against DC in 17 overs and won with 21 balls to spare, increasing their NRR another further.
