Defending champions have six wins from eight matches and have won each of their last five matches and will look to extend their winning streak. On the other hand, Kings XI Punjab back to winning ways in the last match against Royal Challengers Bangalore and will look to carry their winning momentum into this match.
Here we are going to discuss strengths and weakness of Mumbai Indians as well as of Kings XI Punjab and will also make our MI vs KXIP Today Match Prediction –
Strengths :
Mumbai Indians’ strength is their depth in batting as well as in bowling. Their opening pair of Quinton de Kock and Rohit Sharma is fine form and gives good start and the middle order of Suryakumar Yadav, Ishan Kishan, Hardik Pandya and Kieron Pollard have been good so far so their whole batting line up is in form. In bowling Trent Boult has been amazing with the new ball and Jasprit Bumrah is doing his job in middle and death overs. In the spin department Krunal Pandya and Rahul Chahar have come back in form and on slow pitches they will be very crucial.
On the other hand, Kings XI Punjab’s strength is their opening pair of KL Rahul and Mayank Agarwal who are scoring runs for fun and have scored around 800 runs between them so far. And the addition of Chris Gayle has strengthened them further and Pooran is also in good form so their top four is very dangerous and can smash any bowling attack. In the bowling Mohammad Shami, Ravi Bishnoi and Murugan Ashwin have been good so far. Youngster Arshdeep Singh too has impressed and now Chris Jordan is also bowling well so that’s a good sign for their death overs bowling.
Weaknesses :
Mumbai Indians’ don’t have any major weakness but if we still find it then the form of James Pattinson and Nathan Coulter Nile can be a concern for them as these two have leaked a lot of runs and also Ishan Kishan needs to be sensible and Rohit Sharma should be more attacking in the start.
On the other hand, Kings XI Punjab’s major weakness is their poor middle order as the likes of Glenn Maxwell, Mandeep Singh and Sarfraz Khan have struggled to score runs and also their death overs bowling has been poor and against a team like Mumbai it will be a big challenge for them to do well in death overs.
