dc vs mi head to head

If seen, both the teams are facing each other for the second time in the current IPL season. Earlier on April 7, a match was played between the two teams at Wankhede Stadium, in which Mumbai won by 29 runs. In the history of IPL, 34 matches have been played so far between Delhi Capitals and Mumbai Indians. During this period, Mumbai Indians won 19 matches and Delhi Capitals won 15 matches. Delhi Capitals have done well in bits and pieces in the current season, registering spectacular wins in some matches and embarrassing defeats in others. Delhi has won three of its last four matches and if it beats Mumbai, its claim for the playoffs will become a little stronger. On the other hand, after a poor start, Mumbai won three of the next four matches, but lost the last match against Rajasthan Royals (RR) by nine wickets.

Rishabh Pant is in form

The most positive thing for Delhi is the form of captain Rishabh Pant which is improving match by match. His performance behind the wicket has been excellent and he is playing freely while batting. He led the team to victory by playing an unbeaten innings in the match against Gujarat Titans (GT) on Wednesday. Despite tough competition from Sanju Samson, Dinesh Karthik and Ishan Kishan, his place in the T20 World Cup team seems certain. Delhi has got a good top-order batsman in Jack Fraser-McGurk, but better performance is expected from opener Prithvi Shaw. Shai Hope, who replaced David Warner in the last match, could not do anything. Tristan Stubbs has been effective while Axar Patel, who came into the batting order against Gujarat, has also performed brilliantly. Chinamen Kuldeep Yadav and Akshar Patel have shown excellent spin bowling, but Delhi's fast bowlers will have to perform better. Fast bowler Enrique Norcia has given runs at an economy rate of around 14. Khalil Ahmed, Mukesh Kumar and Ishant Sharma have also not been effective.

Rohit Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav and Tilak Verma have performed well in bits and pieces for Mumbai Indians. Whereas Tim David, Ishan Kishan and Hardik could not play big innings. The trump card in bowling is Jasprit Bumrah who has taken 13 wickets at an average of around six. Whereas Gerald Coetzee of South Africa has taken 12 wickets at an economy rate of 10.10.

Probable playing XI of Delhi Capitals:

Shai Hope, Prithvi Shaw, Jack Fraser-McGurk, Rishabh Pant (captain/wicketkeeper), Abhishek Porel, Tristan Stubbs, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Mukesh Kumar, Khalil Ahmed, Enrique Norcia.
