Mumbai Indians v Sunrisers Hyderabad Team News
Mumbai’s focus has shifted from an unlikely playoff run to avoiding the wooden spoon. That’s why Jasprit Bumrah will probably still be available to them. Ishan Kishan might be replaced by Vishnu Vinod.
Possible XI: Rohit/Nabi (subs), Vinod, Yadav, Tilak, Hardik, Wadhera, David, Chawla, Coetzee, Bumrah, Thushara
Sunrisers dropped Aiden Markram for the last game in favor of Marco Jansen, an odd call considering Glenn Phillips was a like-for-like pick. Anmolpreet Singh may be substituted for Jaydev Unadkat or Mayank Markande.
Possible XI: Head, Abhishek, Anmolpreet/Unadkat (subs), Reddy, Klaasen, Samad, Shahabaz, Jansen, Cummins, Kumar, Natarajan
Mumbai Indians v Sunrisers Hyderabad Pitch Report
The expected run fest between Mumbai and KKR at the Wankhede didn’t materialize, with the visitors defending 169. Given the ground’s history of high scores, it’s hard not to consider it an anomaly. Both teams have strong batting line-ups, and both teams to score markets are priced high. A par line for overs players at 204.5 at even money may be a good bet.
Mumbai Indians v Sunrisers Hyderabad Match Odds
Mumbai are once again favorites for a game they seemingly have no right to win. Sunrisers have shown superiority in every department, which isn’t surprising when facing Mumbai.
There are signs that Sunrisers have improved their efficiency in death overs, evident from their performance against the Royals.
Mumbai Indians v Sunrisers Hyderabad Exchange Strategy
Despite Mumbai’s collapse against KKR, there’s a bias for the chasing team at the Wankhede. On a probable flat pitch, this offers an opportunity for an in-play strategy.
We anticipate the side batting first to become favorites, possibly at least 1.70. Ideally, if Mumbai is batting first, we can bet on Sunrisers at big prices during the chase.
Mumbai Indians v Sunrisers Hyderabad Player Bets
With Rohit Sharma potentially not playing as a sub if Mumbai chases, there could be value elsewhere. Hardik Pandya at 15/2 isn’t a bad option. For Sunrisers, we’ll consider betting on Heinrich Klaasen at 4/1 to be the top SRH batsman. He’s underused, but a flat surface could see him unleash his potential towards the end of the innings.
