Preview :

The two most successful teams in IPL history, Chennai Super Kings and the Mumbai Indians, sit at the bottom of the table without a single win to their name. Early indications suggest that a lot of teams are still struggling with their ideal balance and it may take some time for teams to settle into a winning rhythm.

This next match is between the Kolkata Knight Riders and the Mumbai Indians. KKR has won two out of the three matches it has played so far while MI has lost both of its matches. The IPL betting sites are offering nearly identical odds for both teams to win this match.

KKR has been quite successful in IPL 2022 so far and the standout player for it has been a bit unexpected. Umesh Yadav has found movement and bounce during the powerplay to pick up wickets consistently. We have seen in the past that he can fall away after a good start to KKR fans will be a bit wary.
Still, having Umesh Yadav in prime form is a huge plus because we don't think the rest of their bowling is very dependable. Tim Southee, Shivam Mavi, and Andre Russell can all be very expensive. Sunil Narine and Varun Chakravarthy will be more effective once the pitches start to slow up as well.
We are a bit wary of putting money on this bowling attack against Mumbai Indians.
Sunil Narine could be one of the bowlers to watch out for. He has an excellent record against Rohit Sharma and also can be difficult for the power-hitters to pick.
KKR's batting approach has been very positive. They tend to keep attacking even when they are losing wickets, something that the modern T20 game requires.
Venkatesh Iyer and Ajinkya Rahane have not really made a mark so far, Shreyas Iyer has looked good in patches, and Nitish Rana has struggled. HOwever, Sam Billings and Andre Russell have proven themselves to be brilliant during the middle-overs.

MI has lost two matches and that is not uncommon for a team that is known to start slow in the IPL. Three matches in a row start to get really concerning, though, and MI will be separate to hit back. It seemed to have the match in the bag against Delhi Capitals and was also on course for a win against the Rajasthan Royals.
We think a match where its pieces come together is around the corner.
Rohit Sharma leads a very strong batting lineup that also has Ishan Kishan, Tilak Varma, Kieron Pollard, and Tim David. They are missing Surya Kumar Yadav and there is a chance that he could be available for this match. Even if he is not available, though, the team would think it has the necessary ammunition to win.

There is going to be some pressure on Pollard, David, and even Sams. These are the overseas batsman/all-rounders currently playing for MI. Pollard has been a shadow of himself for quite some time while Sams and David have not been able to translate the success of the other league to the IPL.

Sam Billings:

KKR’s top order is struggling at the moment and Sam Billings has batted well in the middle-order for them. He scored 24 runs in last match when kkr losses 3 early wickets. He has scored 63 runs in 3 matches of this season so for, he will be a punt player for this game.

All-rounder :

will be another great captaincy choice for this match.
