Mumbai Indians vs. Sunrisers Hyderabad Prediction: Who Will Win
The form factor is deeply against Mumbai who have not had a considerable set of victories. Sunrisers Hyderabad, on the other hand have strung together four consecutive victories.
Mumbai’s campaign has been a real stop-start affair, and they have dearly missed the presence of Rohit Sharma, who has not featured since the RCB game. However, there has been a hugely positive development on the fitness front, with Rohit likely to return here, giving Mumbai a genuine boost that this campaign has so desperately needed. Will Jacks could also slot in alongside Sherfane Rutherford and Hardik Pandya to offer real firepower in the middle order.
Sunrisers, however, have not been without their own considerable threats. Abhishek Sharma and Ishan Kishan have had a devastating partnership at the top, and Travis Head has had the ability to take any attack apart on his day.
Yet Mumbai have had reason for optimism too. Jasprit Bumrah has had a stranglehold over Abhishek Sharma, having dismissed him twice while conceding just 17 runs off 23 balls. If Bumrah has his say early, Mumbai could stem the very source of power that has made Sunrisers so dangerous all season.
Prediction: Mumbai to win
