KKR, who has been out of form will take on their bogey team Mumbai Indians, as the latter has a great record against their opponent.
We take a look at Picks for the match between Mumbai Indians and Kolkata Knight Riders. We will look at head-to-head records, stats, and players to look out for in the upcoming match.
Current form for MI: W W L L L
Mumbai Indians are already out of the playoff race and thus they can be party spoilers for the other teams. MI can now play without any pressure and they will look to bring their best in the last remaining matches. The five-time champions will look to end their campaign on a high after a disappointing run.
Current form for KKR: L W L L L
KKR has struggled to find any kind of impetus in their last five matches as they have managed a solitary win. Their batting unit hasn’t delivered the goods and thus there has been a lot of chopping and changing. KKR will need to turn the tables to stay alive in the ongoing season.
