MI vs DC Preview
- Ishan Kishan has been much better this year after a dismal tournament last year, hitting 370 runs. The keeper-batter is our pick for the highest run scorer for the Mumbai Indians in this game. With the ball, Jasprit Bumrah has 7 wickets in his last three games and is our selection for the top wicket taker for Mumbai Indians vs Delhi Capitals.
- Only three players have scored more runs in the 2022 IPL than David Warner, and we predict him to be the biggest run scorer for the Delhi Capitals in this match. Kuldeep Yadav has 20 wickets in the league and is a strong contender to be the top wicket taker for Delhi Capitals versus Mumbai Indians.
- Mitchell Marsh, who is a strong hitter, blasted three sixes in the Delhi Capitals’ last game. In this match, he is our pick for the Player with The Most Sixes.
On Saturday evening, the Mumbai Indians and Delhi Capitals will play in the penultimate group stage game of the 2022 Indian Premier League at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. The Mumbai Indians are at the bottom of the table and have already been eliminated this season. The Delhi Capitals are in fifth place, two points out of the play-offs. The tournament’s 69th match begins at 19:30 local time.
Mumbai Indians remained competitive in their last game, but fell by 3 runs against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Despite finishing the season in respectable form, it has been a forgettable season, and this will be a difficult game.
Delhi Capitals have won their last two matches by 17 runs and 8 wickets over Punjab Kings and Rajasthan Royals, respectively. They’re gaining traction and will be difficult to stop in this match.
MI vs DC Weather Report
On Saturday, the weather will be bright, with temperatures ranging from 31 to 29 degrees Celsius with humidity and wind speeds of 68 percent and 23 km/h, respectively. There is no probability of rain.
MI vs DC Match Toss Prediction
Because the pitch is conducive to batting and no target is safe, both captains should opt to chase the total if they win the toss.
MI vs DC Pitch Report
The speed bowlers have had the most success on this surface, despite Rashid Khan’s outstanding numbers in Match 67 at the Wankhede Stadium. Any score above 190 is likely to be difficult to beat.
Mumbai Indians Team News & Probable Playing XIs
Hrithik Shokeen and Kumar Kartikeya, both spinners, were left out of the Mumbai Indians XI for the defeat against Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Wankhede Stadium. We expect to see the same team for this game, since the ground is likely to favor pace bowlers.

Delhi Capitals are the favorites to win this match.
Many observers have been surprised by Mumbai Indians’ poor performance this season, and it would be a great surprise if they were to suddenly turn things around in this match. We believe that the Delhi Capitals will be far too powerful and will win handily at the Wankhede Stadium.
