Five-time champions Mumbai Indians will face Kolkata Knight Riders at the Wankhede Stadium on Sunday afternoon. Mumbai at the time of writing were eighth in the table with one win in three games, whereas Kolkata are fourth. While Kolkata are coming high on the back of two wins, MI just won their recent match, which came against Delhi Capitals.
Mumbai Indians got off the mark in their last game with a win against Delhi Capitals after losing the first two games. For MI, skipper Rohit Sharma is back in form as he hit a half-century to set up a comfortable run-chase of 173. It gave Delhi a chance to come back in the game with the wickets of Rohit Sharma and Suryakumar Yadav. Tilak Varma, meanwhile, carried on with a 29-ball 43 but was dismissed by Mukesh Kumar and the match went down to the wire. The Indians required five off the last over, but Tim David and Cameron Green held their nerve and finished it off. In the bowling department, Jason Behrendorff and Piyush Chawla picked three wickets each along with the new signing Riley Meredith who picked up two. Bowling is the main issue for Rohit Sharma’s men as they have lost three of their key bowlers due to injury and they don’t have a world-class spinner.
Kolkata, on the other hand, started the season well with wins over GT and RCB. Their spin attack and middle order have been their main strength so far. Rinku Singh and Venkatesh Iyer are in great form and they will be their mainstays if the two-time champions have to beat Mumbai Indians.
