MI vs DC Match Overview

Mumbai Indians vs Delhi Capitals: Both teams preview 

Mumbai Indians

Mumbai Indians started with a loss and then went on to face continuous losses for the next three games. However, things started to change for them when they last faced Delhi Capitals in match 29, and then it started a sensational turnaround. They have won 6 of their last 7 matches. After a rocky start (losing 3 of their first 4 matches), their powerful resurgence has been spearheaded by explosive batting and a sharp bowling unit. They have since defeated top teams like RR by 100 runs, CSK by 9 Wickets, and SRH twice this season. If Mumbai wins this match, they will secure a spot to the playoffs as they currently sit with 14 points, and winning points will make it to 16 points, which means they will qualify.

Delhi Capitals

The Capitals started the season strong, winning their first three matches, including one against Chennai Super Kings, the most successful franchise. But inconsistency in the second half of the season took on the momentum. Their most recent outing was a crushing defeat from the visiting teams, where despite putting a high score on the board and KL’s century the team couldn’t convert it to a win. Rain and technical failures have also disrupted DC’s rhythm, with two non-results in their last four fixtures. Despite losing momentum, rain wash out games and technical failures, DC have managed to be in contention and are just a win away from the race to playoffs. A win from here will confirm their spot in the playoffs, where a defeat will knock them out.
