MI vs KKR: Match Overview

Mumbai Indians

The Mumbai Indians, led by Rohit Sharma, have reversed course since the beginning of the Indian Premier League when they failed to advance past the league stage in either of the first two seasons. As a matter of fact, it hit absolute bottom in 2022, completing rearward in the 10-group table.

Therefore, upward is the only path. However, the task will be difficult due to the team’s numerous injuries, particularly in the bowling department. It’s possible that the team will have to rely on its past success of winning the full auction in the second season. In 2015 and 2019, it did. Can the streak continue in 2023?

The Mumbai Indians’ return to the Wankhede Stadium is the biggest strength of a lineup that looks just like it did last year, at least on paper. The Mumbai Indians won the IPL the last time it was played at home and away, winning six of the eight games it played there. The red-soil bouncy track at the Wankhede is the perfect strip for Jofra Archer, the newest sensation, to light up his new home turf. The greatest benefit for the team will be Cameron Green’s ability to turn the tide and withstand the pressure of the big money.

Inferable from Jasprit Bumrah’s delayed back physical issue and Jhye Richardson being controlled out of the competition past the point of no return, Mumbai Indians’ speed unit — regardless of Bowman’s expansion — seems, by all accounts, to be its point of failure. Its first-choice XI’s equilibrium has also been harmed by the injuries to two key pacers. Tim David is the best finisher and Green is the best all-rounder now that Kieron Pollard has left the IPL and joined the star-studded coaching staff. If Jason Behrendorff is added as Archer’s new ball partner, MI might have to bench Dewald Brevis, which could weaken the batting lineup.

Kolkata Knight Riders

Kolkata Knight Riders have been one of the IPL’s most talked-about teams season after season. However, the Shah Rukh Khan-owned team has not won a title in nearly a decade. In an effort to improve its middle order, KKR signed Shakib Al Hasan for Rs 1.5 million in an auction after finishing seventh in 2022.

However, the franchise’s captain, Shreyas Iyer, is expected to miss a significant portion of the tournament due to a back injury. Even though KKR has appointed Nitish Rana as its stand-in captain, Iyer’s absence means that the team won’t have a good batsman up the order.

KKR has an amazing speed bowling division involving Umesh Yadav and Tim Southee. Even though the New Zealand ace is a little bit concerned about an injury, the franchise has brought back Lockie Ferguson this time around to improve the team’s pace. The pace bowling unit of KKR appears formidable on paper and has sufficient experience; it will be interesting to see how it performs at Eden Gardens.

Over the past few seasons, KKR has been hurt by inconsistency. Notwithstanding having a portion of the huge names in its crew, the side has battled on numerous occasions. The team has relied a lot on Andre Russell over the years, and when the West Indies star has had a bad day, KKR has been in trouble because it has no other finisher besides Russell, which is a big problem. KKR’s middle order will face a significant challenge without Shreyas, so players like Rinku Singh and Venkatesh Iyer must step up and deliver.
