Preview Match 9: Mumbai Indians (MI) Vs Delhi Daredevils (DD)
Mumbai Indians and Delhi Daredevils both are the strong teams on paper but they failed to prove on the ground. In last Delhi Daredevils performed well in the first innings against the Rajasthan Royals to restrict them to 153 in 18 overs on a flat track. However, due to the rain, the Daredevils were forced to score 71 in just 6 overs, which they failed to do.Gautam Gambhir looked visibly disappointed with the result and the rain after the match. They will look to give it their all to achieve their first win this season.
On the other hand, Mumbai Indians in the last match perform well in last minute against Sunrisers Hyderabad and almost took the match away from them. However, Deepak Hooda ensured that the 2016 champions didn’t slip up in the end by hitting a six in the penultimate over.
Mumbai Indians Vs Delhi Daredevils match will be played at the Wankhede Stadium which has the slow pitch. This creates difficulties for the pace bowlers. Mumbai Indians have best fast bowling combination(Mustafizur Rahman, Mitchell McClenaghan, and Jasprit Bumrah) which can turn the game in death over. Considering batting order for the Mumbai Indians it may little worried as Rohit Sharma failed in the first two games even Evin Lewis failed to do anything in first two matches. This match also going to be little difficult for them.
The Delhi Daredevils, on the other hand, have more headaches to deal with. They are playing all their initial games away from home and don’t want the defeats piling up before playing seven consecutive games at home towards the end of the season. A rain-hit second game meant Gambhir didn’t walk out to bat and chose to open with Glenn Maxwell in a bid for quick runs, but come Saturday, DD batsmen will slot themselves into their respective batting positions. Fellow opener Colin Munro hasn’t been particularly effective and could well be replaced by Jason Roy.
The DD bowlers haven’t found a way to arrest the scoring rate in their previous matches, and Trent Boult and co. will be aware of that. The Gambhir-Ponting leadership could bring in some changes in the bowling combination as well.
