What Have The Two Teams Done So Far?
There have been times in the past that even the five-time champions Mumbai Indians haven’t done well on the IPL 2024 points table. But there haven’t been times where quite a few of the fans have disliked the team’s attitude and that combined with their current 10th spot on the points table leaves them with a lot of work to do to win over their fans.
Sunrisers Hyderabad have 12 points from 10 games and are probably two wins away from their remaining four games to qualify for the playoffs. Nothing comes easy in the IPL, not even winning a match against a 10th-placed side but if there was one team they would be confident of winning against right now, it’s Mumbai.
Quick MI vs SRH Preview
Hardik Pandya cut a lonely figure as Mumbai Indians fell to their fourth successive loss of the tournament, going one worse than the three defeats they suffered at the start of the season.
This one was against Kolkata Knight Riders, who despite scoring a mere 169 batting first were able to restrict Mumbai Indians to 145. It was Mumbai’s first defeat at Wankhede to KKR since 2012.
Mumbai Indians have tried everything but it’s not so much about the quality of personnel but that of playing as a united front and it looks like that is missing from the team.
And that’s something Hyderabad will look to exploit with their bat.
In what turned out to be the closest match of the IPL, Hyderabad managed to eke out a 1-run win over Rajasthan last game to keep their spot in the top four of the points table.
Throughout the chase of 202, Rajasthan looked like they had things under control and even in the final over, they could have won it. Or at least pushed it into a Super Over but for the calmness exuded by Bhuvneshwar Kumar with the ball.
Earlier, SRH had gotten off to a slowish start despite a Travis Head fifty but it was Nitish Kumar Reddy who brought them to 200 with a 42-ball 76.
This team could prove to be a handful for Mumbai.
