Mumbai vs Hyderabad on May 17

Mumbai Indians will take on the Sunrisers Hyderabad in their next encounter at the Wankhede Stadium. The Rohit Sharma-led side is coming off a comfortable victory against the Chennai Super Kings in their previous game despite a hiccup while chasing at the start. With just three wins in 12 games, Mumbai Indians haven’t had much to be delighted about, and they will be looking to sign off the season with a win. On the other hand, Sunrisers Hyderabad have gone into a shell after starting so well and have lost all their last five games on the trot. The Kane Williamson-led side has a negative run rate as well and hence, they will need to win their remaining two games by a big margin and hope for the other results to go their way as well.

Best economical pick – Tilak Varma has played some high-quality knocks in the tournament in just his first season and he definitely is one of the bright prospects for the Mumbai Indians going forward. The left-hander has amassed 368 runs in 12 games so far this season and stepped up yet again in a crucial situation in the previous game against CSK with an unbeaten 32-ball 34 to steer his side home.

Top captains & vice captains – Ishan Kishan has made 327 runs in 12 matches at an average of 29.72 and a strike rate of 117.20 including 3 half-centuries. Kishan has made two 40+ scores in the last 5 matches and would be responsible for providing a quick start to the team. Abhishek Sharma has made 374 runs in 12 matches at an average of 31.16 and a strike rate of 134.53. Abhishek is the leading run-scorer for SRH this season. In the last 5 matches, he has made 30+ scores thrice.

Smart pick – Jasprit Bumrah was outstanding with the new ball for the Mumbai Indians in the previous game and he finished with 1/12 in his three overs with one maiden as well. The right-arm quick generated good speeds and was ready to swing the ball as well both ways. He has certainly found the rhythm going and will be a key figure in the upcoming fixture as well.

Cautious Pick – Tristan Stubbs made his IPL debut for MI in the last game against Chennai Super Kings and was dismissed for a duck. You can pick some other in-form wicketkeepers in your fantasy team and avoid Stubbs in your fantasy team.

My XI – Ishan Kishan (Captain), Abhishek Sharma (Vice-Captain), Tilak Varma, Jasprit Bumrah, Umran Malik, Washington Sundar, Aiden Markram, Rohit Sharma, Rahul Tripathi, Kane Williamson, Nicholas Pooran
