MI vs KKR Pitch Report

Mumbai has been a high-scoring venue and will remain so in the crucial encounter against KKR. Small ground, some dew and flat surface doesn't really help the bowlers. In the last few games, we have seen the result of extreme heat in parts of India and the slowness of the surfaces hasn't helped either. However, Wankhede Stadium is going to be least affected by this as in Mumbai it hardly turns and it is difficult to stop runs due to short boundaries.

Chennai Super Kings had defended a score in the previous game, but this could be attributed to both some good bowling from the other team and less confident batting from the home team. However, even 200-210 runs are not safe and it is expected that the captain who wins the toss will chase. Nothing is working for Mumbai Indians at the moment, however, they would like to chase the target after being limited to moderate scores while defending in the last two matches and KKR also love to chase the target.
