The skipper of Mumbai Rohit Sharma is yet to deliver a match-winning knock for the team. Though he is trying to take the onus of quick runs in the powerplay overs, he hardly did the job for the team with his willow.

Quinton de Kock has been one of their contributors with the bat. However, he always wasted his good starts for the team by leaving it in the middle. Besides that, his wicket-keeping skills are at top-notch.

The youngster is showing great consistency for the team. He is knocking ball like a dream to make things fall in place. He would once again be the key for the team in home conditions.

Yuvraj Singh could get his place back in the side, as the game is being played against Kings XI Punjab. Most Probably, they would like to take that tactical call for this crucial clash.

Krunal Pandya is doing a fine job for the team in both sections of the game. However, he is yet to deliver a man of the match performance for the team in the tournament so far.

Hardik Pandya’s last game in Wankhede Stadium has gone exceptionally well. He showed his class with the bat and also got into his groove with the ball. He would like to have one more eventful game under his kitty.

Finally, Kieron Pollard has shown his calibre with the bat for Mumbai Indians against Sunrisers Hyderabad. The flamboyant batsman has been incredible in the last game and a brilliant fielder for Mumbai as well.

Rahul Chahar

Rahul Chahar is doing a fine job for the team. Replacing Mayank Markande, Chahar is delivering goods as per the requirements of the team to retain himself in the playing XI on a consistent basis.

Mumbai Indians got a stunning bowling lineup:

Alzarri Joseph

What a scintillating debut game for Alzarri?. Joseph had scalped the best bowling figures in IPL history as he had taken 6-12. Certainly, he would retain his place.

The Australian had a good day with the ball in the game against CSK and SRH. Most Probably, he would like to repeat the show for the team by retaining his place in the playing XI.

Jasprit Bumrah

So far, Bumrah hasn’t been at his best for the team. He is leaking runs for the team. However, he got great ingredients in him to seal the victory for Mumbai from the jaws of losing the game.

Ratings:

Batting – 8/10

Mumbai Indians got such a fantastic depth in their batting lineup. But, unfortunately, none of them is finding their feet in the middle. The return to form of Kieron Pollard would be a blessing for the team.

Bowling – 9/10

The addition of Alzarri Joseph has certainly made already-powerful bowling attack look more dangerous. With the likes of Bumrah, Jason, Alzarri in the lineup, they would back themselves to rattle the opposition.
