Both teams will be trying to put together a few victories to increase their chances of making it to the knockout stage after managing to win three of their previous five games.

DC vs MI: Match Overview

Delhi Capitals

Although Rishabh Pant’s Capitals have managed to win four games thus far, their consistency is still far from what they would like it to be. Their bowling group came up when their batting collapsed early in the tournament. And it’s the exact opposite now.

Their bowlers, particularly Anrich Nortje, whose horrifying performance in this year’s IPL continues, have proven to be reliable, but their batting has clicked. Regardless of the pace he creates, batsmen have been able to play them fearlessly and score runs off of him with ease. After having a strong start to the season, Mukesh Kumar faltered in the middle and is currently attempting to get back on track.

While Khaleel Ahmed and Lalit Yadav, the fifth bowling option, haven’t yet made an impression, Axar Patel and Kuldeep have generally performed well. With the addition of Australian sensation Fraser McGurk, DC’s batting has significantly improved. It is concerning that Prithvi Shaw is unable to spend time at the crease.

However, Abhishek Porel has steadied himself and can give his team a strong base from above. The Delhi Capitals have had great play from Pant and Stubbs, and their combination paid off the other night when the Gujarat Titans came to Delhi and gave the hosts a thrilling chase.

Mumbai Indians

The Mumbai Indians have performed poorly the entire season. The squad’s poor performance this season is evidently due to the captaincy change that has upset the team’s rhythm.

Bumrah was the one who, more than anyone else, always put Mumbai in a strong position. With his amazing T20 abilities, the Indian captain has been in excellent form and has been asking the batsmen questions. Although Coetzee, his partner, has not had the desired impact, the South African bowls with all of his heart. In addition, Akash Madhwal hasn’t exactly lit up the competition and is still refining his radar. It hasn’t worked out at all for Piyush Chawla or Shreyas Gopal as the spinner.

Rohit Sharma is leading the way at bat, scoring the majority of the runs upfront. Additionally performing admirably in the middle order is Tilak Varma. Though he’s still not quite in his element, Suryakumar Yadav scored a vital 78 the other night to give MI a chance. Only Ishan Kishan has managed to score a single half-century, with the remaining batsmen being largely insignificant.

DC vs MI: Head-to-head
