Who knew the low-scoring game would become so interesting. Mumbai Indians at the top of the game right now as Manish Pandey goes on 11. Hooda the new man in.
The Sunrisers Hyderabad will host the Mumbai Indians in the 7th match of the IPL 2018. Team Sunrisers have won their first match, whereas the Mumbai Indians lost the opening game against the Chennai Super Kings in Mumbai. MI will definitely be looking forward to winning a game in order to get past the nil mark.
The Mumbai Indians anyway have a great record at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium. In 2017, Rohit Sharma led Mumbai Indians lifted the IPL trophy over here. Out of the last 10 matches, both teams have won 5 matches each so this game is expected to go live down the wire as well. Talking about the trivia, strike bowler of SRH Bhuvneshwar Kumar has an outstanding record against the Mumbai Indians; in 8 IPL matches – while playing for Sunrisers Hyderabad – he has taken 14 wickets and has an economy rate of 5.67. Shikhar Dhawan too holds the record for scoring more runs against MI than against any other one opponent; the left-hander has an aggregate of 536 runs from 16 matches against MI. What one can expect is a cracker of a contest between SRH and Mumbai Indians.
SRH starting XI: Shakib Al Hasan, Shikhar Dhawan, Wriddhiman Saha (wk), Kane Williamson (c), Manish Pandey, Deepak Hooda, Yusuf Pathan, Rashid Khan, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Siddarth Kaul, Billy Stanlake.
