IPL 2023 Predictions: SRH vs MI

Published

on

Aiden Markram’s Sunrisers Hyderabad will face Rohit Sharma’s Mumbai Indians in Match 25 of Indian Premier League 2023 at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad on Tuesday.

After making a dismal start to the season, SRH have finally got some momentum by winning back-to-back matches.

Harry Brook, who was bought by the Sunrisers for a whopping price of ₹13.5 crores for this season, smashed the season’s first century and propelling SRH to a match-winning total of 228 against KKR.

Skipper Aiden Markram scored a half-century while Abhishek Sharma and Heinrich Klaasen too got some runs.

However, Mayank Agarwal is going through an extended lean patch.

Hyderabad’s bowling has quality pacers in the form of Bhuvaneshwar Kumar, Marco Jansen, T Natarajan and Umran Malik.

But their unlikely bowling hero has been Mayank Markande who has picked up 6 wickets in 2 appearances so far.

However, they also need to improve their net run-rate, which reads -0.822.

Mumbai Indians also lost their first two games of the season but bounced back to win the next two.

They defeated Delhi Capitals by six wickets and Kolkata Knight Riders by five wickets. MI have a net run-rate of -0.389.

Arjun Tendulkar made debut for MI in the previous game and should keep his place.

Duan Jansen also made his debut but was expensive. Jofra Archer’s availability remains unclear.

For Mumbai Indians, the best bowler has been Piyush Chawla with five wickets at an economy of 6.25. He is a good bet to be the top bowler for MI once again.

It has been a pretty even record when it comes to head-to-head encounters between the 2 teams.

Of the 19 matches that they have played so far, the Mumbai Indians have won 10, while the Sunrisers have won 9.

Both MI and SRH are two points away from the second spot but are placed eighth and ninth, respectively.

Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium Score Records:

Total matches: 2
Batting first won: 0 (0%)
Bowling first won: 2 (100%)
1st inn avg score: 196
2nd inn avg score: 198
Highest Total: 209/4
Highest Chased: 209/4

Key Players

Mumbai Indians’ wicketkeeper batter Ishan Kishan showed his class once again against KKR in the last game.

The leftie scored 58 runs from just 25 deliveries and gave MI a perfect launchpad early in the innings. In 4 innings so far, Ishan has scored 131 runs at a strike rate of over 150.

SRH’s INR 13.25 Crores buy, Harry Brook showed his true colours against KKR as he slammed his maiden IPL ton. Brook remained unbeaten at 100 runs in 55 deliveries.

The milestone knock will give him much-required confidence to go big in the upcoming games as well.

Spin played a key role when SRH played at the Rajiv Gandhi Stadium last time and Mayank Markande was brilliant. The spinner scalped four wickets in four overs by conceding just 15 runs.

Suryakumar Yadav captained MI in the last game and scored 43 runs in 25 balls. He made a good comeback following a string of poor performances in the last few innings.

Sunrisers Hyderabad Possible Playing 11

Harry Brook, Mayank Agarwal, Rahul Tripathi, Aiden Markram(C), Abhishek Sharma, Heinrich Klaasen(WK), Marco Jansen, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mayank Markande, Umran Malik, T Natarajan

Mumbai Indians Possible Playing 11

Ishan Kishan(WK), Cameron Green, Tilak Varma, Suryakumar Yadav(C), Tim David, Nehal Wadhera, Arjun Tendulkar, Hrithik Shokeen, Piyush Chawla, Duan Jansen, Riley Meredith

Who will win

Both teams are coming to the match with wins under their belt.

The batting line-ups of MI and SRH are looking pretty good. SKY’s return to form is great news for the Mumbai side who were struggling for consistency.

However, MI has a weak bowling attack. Piyush Chawla has been the standout bowler in the past 2 matches but he may not get enough purchase on this wicket.

Hence, we think SRH will emerge winners.
