Mumbai Indians and Kings XI Punjab will be up against each other in the match no. 36 of 2020 Indian Premier League (IPL). This season we have seen teams come back in the final stages of games and KXIP did just that in their previous match against Royal Challengers Bangalore. Their openers, KL Rahul and Mayank Agarwal are in a purple patch and with the inclusion of the Universe Boss in the eleven, their batting lineup looks strong.
Chris Gayle didn’t disappoint his captain and scored a match-winning 53. Their bowlers though are in a spot of bother and need to find a settled attack if they are to even qualify for the playoffs. On top of that, they haven’t had luck on their side on most of the occasions. Mumbai, whereas, are looking like one of the favorites currently to lay their hands on the trophy again.
Their batting has, more or less, been on spot. Their fielders are grabbing most of the opportunities on the field and bowlers have backed each other and delivered most of the time. They will be going into this contest with a win and confidence at the back of their minds.
Here are the 3 players who can make you win big in your Dream11 team for MI vs KXIP:
1. KL Rahul (11 credits)
KL Rahul has had the best IPL so far. He has scored 448 runs in eight matches at an incredible average of 74.66 striking at a reasonable 133.33. To add the cherry on top of the cake, the right-hander has even scored a century this season against RCB and dons the Orange Cap. Without any hesitation, he can be the skipper not only for his team but of your Dream11 team as well.
2. Rohit Sharma (10.5 credits)
Rohit Sharma has had a decent IPL so far. But you can never predict when he can go all guns blazing against any bowling line up. He has scored 251 runs from eight outings at a decent average of 31.37. The Nagpur-born has looked in excellent touch this season and he will be expected to do well again. The 33-year-old Sharma can be either the C or VC of your Dream11 team.
3. Suryakumar Yadav (9 credits)
Suryakumar Yadav has been the saviour for MI this season, batting in the middle order. He has pulled his team out of trouble on most of the occasions this season. Not only with his batting, but he has also given a treat to the Mumbai fans with the screamer he took against KKR to send Rahul Tripathi back. So his abilities in the field too can be considered for including him in your Dream11 team either as a C or VC.
