It will be seen if the winner of the World Cup, who has been out of action for some time, can afford to practice or play directly. Rajasthan, having lost to the Delhi Capitals by a wide margin of 46 races, will be looking for a comeback. An aggressive display of bowling coupled with good fielding saw them restrict the Delhi capitals to 184 for eight. However, the batsmen, save for Yashasvi Jaiswal (34) and Rahul Tewatia (38), struggled during the chase.
While the Sunrisers were on track to suffer back-to-back losses before starter Jonny Bairstow and spinning star Rashid Khan helped them beat Kings XI Punjab by three wickets on Thursday. For Sunrisers, Bairstow has been in top form this season, breaking 97 of 55 balls against KXIP, and England’s opener was at its best against the Delhi Capitals and Royal Challengers Bangalore as well.
In the second match later in the evening, many small battles are expected to unfold as the two most consistent teams of the season, the Indians of Mumbai and the capitals of Delhi, cross swords in the 27th match of the season. Whether it’s a powerful higher order attack, a strong medium order or a deadly bowling attack, there’s hardly anything separating the two sides. If a team has a slight advantage in any department, it is experience in the rhythm bowling arsenal of the Mumbai Indians. Both Jasprit Bumrah and Trent Boult, with years of experience behind them, could make a difference in the most sought-after event of this edition.
Probable XI:
Mumbai Indians: Rohit Sharma (c), Quinton de Kock (week), Suryakumar Yadav, Ishan Kishan, Hardik Pandya, Kieron Pollard, Krunal Pandya, James Pattinson, Rahul Chahar / Jayant Yadav, Trent Boult, Jasprit Bumrah
Capitals of Delhi: Prithvi Shaw, Shikhar Dhawan, Shreyas Iyer (c), Rishabh Pant (week), Marcus Stoinis, Shimron Hetmyer, Axar Patel, Harshal Patel, R Ashwin, Kagiso Rabada, Anrich Nortje
