The last leg of the league phase has begun and every game has serious implications on the IPL league table. MI have 14 points on the board and have all but qualified for the playoffs, and could seal that playoff spot with a home win on Thursday.
SRH on the other hand need another win to get to 14 points and have to do so without their talisman, David Warner. Martin Guptill is waiting in the ranks but he would need a miracle to play the way David Warner has been playing this season.
Venue/Pitch:
Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai
The average first innings score at the Wankhede this season is 187. With dew likely to make its presence felt during the latter half of the match, teams – as is the trend mostly in T20s – would want to chase.
