MI vs SRH Live Score: IPL 2024, Match 55- Mumbai Indians (MI) will collide with Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in match 55 of IPL 2024 at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. This will be the reverse fixture between these 2 sides and the 1st game was played at Hyderabad with SRH breaking all the records with the bat and winning.
Sunrisers Hyderabad piled up the highest total in IPL history as they broke RCB's record of 263 runs set in IPL 2013 when they last played against Mumbai Indians. Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma, Heinrich Klassen, and Aiden Markram went all guns blazing after the Mumbai bowlers as they batted first and scored 277 runs.
Mumbai were not too far behind as they managed to get 246 runs for the loss of 5 wickets in their 20 overs. Ishan Kishan and Rohit Sharma gave their side a solid start which Tilak Varma and Tim David then carried on towards the end.
When Mumbai welcomes SRH at home, we expect another run-fest if the visitors decide to bat first. It's a catch-22 situation for Mumbai Indians as SRH have not done well in the chase in IPL 2024 and the Wankhede Stadium is traditionally a chasing ground.
MI vs SRH Live Score and Updates: IPL 2024, Match 55
MI's campaign is all but over with the team not finding balance throughout the tournament. The captaincy switch between Rohit Sharma and Hardik Pandya also played a big role as the team was visibly divided into 2 halves for the majority of IPL 2024.
However, they will be playing for their pride now as they hold the reputation of being 5-time IPL champions, a record, which has only been equalled by CSK. For SRH, this game will mean much more than the 2 points on the table.
Given CSK's win over Punjab Kings and LSG's loss against KKR, Sunrisers Hyderabad find themselves sitting at the 4th spot in the points table. The race for the IPL playoffs is heating up and with KKR and Rajasthan almost on the verge of qualification, it will be a tight fight among SRH, CSK, and LSG for the 3rd and the 4th spot.
A lot will depend on the coin toss and the combinations that these teams opt for. Interestingly, SRH bolstered their bowling attack in the last game, adding Marco Jansen to the mix in place of Aiden Markram. They might continue with the same given the batting prowess the team already possesses.
For Mumbai Indians, Jasprit Bumrah has been the only good sign this season but there have been murmurs around him resting in future games to be fit and ready for the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. Only time will tell which combination will emerge victorious at the end of the day. Let's jump into the MI vs SRH Live Score and Updates.
