MI vs DC Match Preview
Mumbai Indians currently occupy the bottom position on the IPL points table, while Delhi Capitals holds the ninth spot. Mumbai Indians have competed in three matches this season, failing to secure a victory, whereas Delhi Capitals have played four matches, managing to win just one.
Mumbai Indians’ recent match against Rajasthan Royals ended in a defeat by 6 wickets, with Hardik Pandya contributing 34 runs. Conversely, Delhi Capitals suffered a significant loss by 106 runs against Kolkata Knight Riders in their last game, with Rishabh Pant and Tristan Stubbs scoring 55 runs and 54 runs, respectively.
Mumbai Indians did not start as they had hoped, suffering defeats against Gujarat Titans, Sunrisers Hyderabad, and Rajasthan Royals. However, Suryakumar Yadav’s potential return could provide the boost they need.
Playing against the only team below them in the table, Delhi Capitals fancy their chances of securing their second win. However, their bowlers need to be smarter and employ better variety after their lack of intelligence against KKR in their last game.
MI vs DC Head To Head Records
In their previous encounters, Mumbai Indians have emerged victorious in 18 out of 33 matches against Delhi Capitals, while Delhi Capitals have won 15 games.
Although they are yet to win this season, Mumbai Indians have beaten Delhi Capitals by 5 wickets and by 6 wickets in their last two head-to-heads. Delhi Capitals last beat Mumbai Indians in March 2022.
Wankhede Stadium Pitch Report
Wankhede Stadium pitches are considered belters, where batsmen have scored a lot of runs. However, the wickets at the venue have also helped the fast bowlers, providing good bounce and movement in the early stages of the game. Due to the dew at night, the game here will favour teams chasing the target.
This is not the easiest batting pitch, with a turn for the spinners and sideways movement for the quick bowlers. A par score is likely to be no higher than 150, with the pitch getting easier to bat on as the game progresses.
