MI and KKR go head to head in match 51 of IPL 2024 in Mumbai on Friday. The match starts at 7.30 pm IST. They play the reverse fixture in Kolkata on May 11 Saturday.

KKR are heading into this game and placed second on the table. They have now won six out of their nine games and are on 12 points. They defeated DC in their last game through a dominant performance with bat and ball. 

MI, on the other hand, have largely struggled this season. They lost their previous game against LSG in Lucknow. There have been debates about Hardik Pandya's captaincy to the players underperforming so far in the campaign. Jasprit Bumrah has lacked the support from the other bowlers.

Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan have not been consistent as an opening pair. Suryakumar Yadav has just scored 166 in this season so far in six games at an average of less than 30. Mumbai's below-par score of 145 was not enough to challenge LSG.

Historically, MI have dominated KKR over 16 years in the IPL. Mumbai Indians have won more games at home and also at Eden Gardens. However, with the franchise struggling this season, this is KKR's chance to add to that tally of wins.
