IPL 2019: SRH vs MI; Match Details, Venue, Head-to-Head Stats & Predicted XI

It should be another thrilling weekend when the Sunrisers Hyderabad host Mumbai Indians at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium. The hosts will look to continue their winning run while the Mumbai Indians must be beaming with confidence after defeating the Chennai Super Kings in their previous encounter. We can anticipate another intriguing contest when these teams collide at Hyderabad tomorrow night.

Sunrisers Hyderabad has played some consistent cricket so far in this tournament. Since the return of David Warner, the Orange Army has been ruthless in their approach, and along with Jonny Bairstow at the top, they arguably possess the best batting lineup. Having lost their opening game, SRH made a terrific comeback to win their next three games on the trot.

Mohammed Nabi made a significant impact against the Delhi Capitals with his all-round skills to take the Sunrisers to the top of the table. With an explosive batting lineup and destructive bowling attack, the table-toppers have the potential to go all the way this season.

On the other hand, the Mumbai Indians have had a mixed tournament so far, as they have won two and lost as many in their four matches. The three-time IPL champions registered a 37-run victory against the reigning champions in the previous encounter to gain some winning momentum. In the process, Mumbai Indians became the first IPL franchise to win 100 IPL matches overall.

After such a clinical performance against the mighty CSK they would be eyeing to breach the Hyderabad fortress in the upcoming game. Rohit Sharma and Hardik Pandya, who have been in decent form, will be pivotal to their team’s success on the batting-friendly track.
