THE LOWDOWN
MUMBAI INDIANS
- Mumbai Indians will no doubt look to use their narrow win over Delhi Capitals as a springboard for them moving forward, especially now they’ve got their annual bad start to an IPL season out of the way.
- Most pleasing for Mumbai will be captain Rohit Sharma being named Player of the Match following his 65 with Mumbai desperately needing their captain in top form to progress positively as the tournament goes on.
KOLKATA KNIGHT RIDERS
- Kolkata Knight Riders fell victim to the Harry Brook show against Sunrisers Hyderabad, his century leading SRH to a total of 228/4 batting first, which was too big a score for KKR to chase down.
- Nitish Rana’s 75 from 41 balls gave them hope as did another superb knock from Rinku Singh, but ultimately the damage had been done and the result leaves the Knight Riders 2-2 after four matches played.
THE PREDICTION
It’s difficult to predict what sort of performance you’ll see from Kolkata Knight Riders at the moment, with consistency an issue. However, they have at least proved their capability to bounce back following a poor result, so expect them to improve on the bowling front. Mumbai Indians have history of putting together winning runs following a poor start and Rohit finding form is a big boost for them. Combine that with home advantage and it makes backing Mumbai Indians to come out on top worth backing in this game.
