The momentum is with the Mumbai Indians going into this match. They are climbing the table and opener, Quinton de Kock has started finding some form. My best bet is for De Kock to score over 26.5 runs.

Head to Head

Mumbai Indians have won four of their last five matches against the Sunrisers Hyderabad. That includes a 13-run victory for Mumbai earlier this season.

Sunrisers Hyderabad Form

Sunrisers Hyderabad are bottom of the table after seven matches with just one victory. They will need a huge turnaround in form in the second half of the campaign if they are to challenge for the playoffs.

In their last match the Sunrisers bowled first against Rajasthan Royals on a flat pitch in Delhi. The Royals smashed 220 runs in their 20 overs with Rashid Khan the only Sunrisers bowler to take any credit. He took 1-24 in four overs.

The Sunrisers started well with the bat but they could not maintain the scoring rate. Manish Pandey scored 31, Jonny Bairstow 30 and Kane Williamson 20 runs. They only managed to reach 165 in their 20 overs, losing by 55 runs.

Sunrisers Hyderabad Team News

The franchise has been in a bit of disarray this season. Performances have not been up to scratch and David Warner was sacked as captain before the previous match. Kane Williamson took over while Warner did not play.

The left-handed Aussie should return to the side for this match.

Mumbai Indians Form

The Mumbai Indians are starting to find some form and is a dangerous prospect going forward. They are fourth on the Indian Premier League table after winning their second consecutive match against the Chennai Super Kings last time out.

The Mumbai side bowled first in Delhi and none of the bowlers really performance as the Super Kings posted 218 runs in 20 overs. Despite the pitch being very good for batting, it was a stiff total.

Quinton de Kock (38) and Rohit Sharma (35) made a solid start to the chase but three quick wickets saw them slip from 71-0 to 81-3. They were well behind the scoring rate but up stepped Kieron Pollard.

The powerful West Indian played one of the great IPL innings, smashing 87* off 34 balls including six fours and eight sixes. He guided the Mumbai Indians to a four wicket win off the final ball of the innings.

Mumbai Indians Team News

The Mumbai Indians have a reasonably settled line and a very strong batting lineup. They are unlikely to make any changes.
