CNN Central News & Network-ITDC India Epress / ITDC News Bhopal: In the 55th fixture of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024, Mumbai Indians (MI) will clash with SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Monday. Mumbai Indians find themselves at the bottom of the IPL 2024 standings with only three wins out of 11 matches, with six points to their name. On the other hand, SunRisers Hyderabad are currently hovering in fourth place, having garnered 12 points with six wins out of 10 matches. Let’s delve into the predicted XI lineups of both teams as we approach what promises to be an enticing matchup.
Ishan Kishan (wicketkeeper)
Despite early fireworks in the season, Ishan Kishan has looked stuttering with the bat. With 257 runs in 11 matches, the wicketkeeper batter will be eager to score big against SRH.
Rohit Sharma
India skipper Rohit Sharma has struggled to score runs in the recent matches for MI. However, with 326 runs in 11 matches and a century to his name, Rohit will likely display his batting prowess sooner rather than later.
Naman Dhir
In the last match against KKR, Naman Dhir couldn’t leave a mark. Despite getting few chances to bat in IPL 2024, Dhir has only managed 61 runs in four matches with an impressive strike rate of 169.44. Additionally, he is still awaiting his maiden IPL wicket and aims to make a significant contribution at home on Monday.
Suryakumar Yadav
Suryakumar Yadav has enjoyed his scintillating form in IPL 2024. Having already notched up three fifty-plus scores, SKY has accumulated 232 runs in eight matches backed by a stunning strike rate of over 168. The right-hander could likely add another big score to his tally come Monday.
Tilak Varma
Indian batter Tilak Varma has been one of the shining lights for MI in their dismal IPL 2024 campaign. The explosive southpaw has piled up 347 runs in 11 matches while maintaining a strike rate of 151.52. Varma’s sublime form could prove lethal against SRH.
Nehal Wadhera
Nehal Wadhera is yet to leave a mark with the bat in IPL 2024. With 105 runs in four matches, Wadhera will be raring to score crucial runs in the upcoming match against Hyderabad. The left-hander boasts a strike rate of 134.62 and is a vital cog in the MI camp.
Hardik Pandya (captain)
MI’s new skipper Hardik Pandya has probably failed to crack the winning algorithm in the IPL 2024. Additionally, the Indian all-rounder has struggled to convert his cameos into big scores. However, Pandya can also prove effective with the ball considering he has scalped eight wickets for MI.
Tim David
Australian hard-hitting batter Tim David couldn’t replicate his IPL 2023 success this year. So far, David has accumulated 241 runs in 11 matches, showcasing a commendable strike rate of 161.74. Meanwhile, his clean-hitting prowess at the Wankhede Stadium makes him a regular starter at home.
