MI vs KKR, IPL Toss Result: Today's match players list, teams & umpires for Match 56

The Mumbai Indians (MI) will be keen to complete a hat-trick of wins when they take on the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in Match 56 of the 2022 Indian Premier League (IPL) at the DY Stadium in Navi Mumbai on Monday. After eight straight losses, Mumbai have won their last two matches, defeating the Rajasthan Royals (RR) and the Gujarat Titans (GT).

In the match against Gujarat, they were on the backfoot for the most part. However, the bowlers helped Mumbai stage an excellent comeback as they went on to win the contest by five runs. Daniel Sams gave away only three runs when GT needed nine off the last over. The triumph would undoubtedly have boosted Mumbai’s confidence.

After a bright start, Kolkata’s campaign has gone completely off-track. They have won only one of their last seven matches. With just eight points after 11 games, their playoff hopes are as good as over. Can they lift themselves against Mumbai after the 75-run thrashing at the hands of Lucknow?
