IPL 2019: MI vs KXIP - 3 interesting player battles to watch out for

#3 Rohit Sharma vs Mohammed Shami

Can Mohammed Shami get the big wicket of Rohit Sharma?

Mohammed Shami's return to form in limited overs cricket has been one of the best things for the Indian team in a recent while. While this duo has played for the same team in the last couple of months, it will be interesting to see how Rohit Sharma tackles Mohammed Shami in the game.

Probably the most improved cricketer in the last year or so, Shami will be looking to nip out his vice-captain's wicket in a short span of time. He is someone who has been getting everything from his slower balls to yorkers to bouncers on point and Rohit Sharma will be keen to take him on and smash him around the park.

With both teams eager to secure a win to move up the points table, it is going to be a superb contest and these player battles is what is going to make the match more interesting.
