Delhi Capitals vs Mumbai Indians IPL

It’s a chance to move up the table for the Mumbai Indians, but they pay a tricky visit to the in-form Delhi Capitals side.

There’s a huge gulf between these sides already, with Delhi starting this match with four wins out of four and Mumbai losing four of their five this season. It could be another tough pill to swallow for the Mumbai team here, and I am backing Delhi to win.

Mumbai lost 10 of their last 11 away matches, including seven in a row.
Mumbai also lost 10 of their last 12 matches in the IPL.
Delhi won their last 5 matches in a row.
Delhi won their last 4 matches at this venue.
Delhi won 6 of their last 9 matches against Mumbai at this venue.

Head to Head

Delhi Capitals played Mumbai Indians in 35 matches so far, with 16 wins for Delhi and 19 wins for Mumbai. It is the Mumbai Indians who may have had a recent grip over the Capitals, as their run of eight wins from the last 12 fixtures shows.

The teams met twice last season, winning one game each, at their respective home venues. Mumbai won by 29 runs at the Wankhede, while Delhi won by 10 runs at this venue.

Delhi are the envious side of this tournament, being the only unbeaten team so far. They are coming off an impressive six-wicket win in Bengaluru and are looking to start their home stretch positively.

Positively for the home team, their batting started to click really well. KL Rahul (185 runs, SR 169.72) has found a new gear and has two 50+ scores in his three innings this year.

The bowling exploits make Delhi a difficult side to face. While Mitchell Starc (nine wickets) wreaks havoc with the new ball, Kuldeep Yadav (ER 5.56) and Vipraj Nigam (five wickets) spin a web in the middle overs.

Is Jake Fraser-McGurk under threat? 46 runs at 102.22 SR aren’t the numbers Delhi wanted to see, but will Delhi bite the bullet and replace him with Donovan Ferreira and rejig the batting order?

Mumbai Indians Form

What can we say of the Mumbai Indians! They are eighth in the standings ahead of this weekend’s fixtures, with two points from five matches.

They are coming off consecutive 12-run defeats to Lucknow and Bengaluru. While the margins appear closer, Mumbai were always playing catch-up with the opponents.

SKY (199 runs, SR 150.75) seems to be playing in a different sphere, while the others keep struggling. Captain Hardik Pandya (10 wickets) has been a revelation with the ball, but it’s the young tweaker Vignesh Puthur (six wickets, ER 8.54) that has impressed.

The return of Jasprit Bumrah was a big piece of positive news, but Mumbai are still struggling to find the right balance. Can they give a game to Bevon Jacobs in place of Will Jacks? Is it time to test the likes of Reece Topley or Corbin Bosch.

Verdict

Delhi Capitals v Mumbai Indians - T20

Mumbai’s woes are evident in the fact that they are struggling in all departments. Delhi seem to have settled down and should fancy their chances. Although it’s a suicide to back someone based on form in a fickle format like the T20s, I am sticking my neck out and putting money on Delhi winning here.
