IPL 2022: Mumbai Indians vs Kolkata Knight Riders – Match Prediction

Mumbai Indians will face Kolkata Knight Riders in the 56th match of the Indian Premier League 2022 at the Dr. DY Sports Academy, Mumbai on Monday.

Mumbai Indians are already out of the playoff race whereas KKR has a very slim chance of qualifying for the last four.

Both of these teams have failed to bring their best in the ongoing season and it has led to their downfall. Meanwhile, Mumbai had won their previous contest against an in-form Gujarat Titans by five runs.

On the other hand, KKR had lost their last game against Lucknow Super Giants by a massive margin of 75 runs. KKR were bundled out for only 101 runs and they need to come up with a better batting show as they have struggled to deliver the goods.

Except for Andre Russell, none of the KKR batters could get going in the run chase. KKR’s batting unit has been inconsistent throughout the season as they have managed only four wins in 11 games.

Meanwhile, Mumbai Indians have won their last two matches but they got off to a horrid start as they lost their first eight games. As they are already out of the tournament, they will look to play more freely in their remaining four league stage games to end the season on a high.

Match Prediction: Kolkata Knight Riders might enter the contest as favorites against Mumbai Indians.

Mumbai Indians XI Probable Playing XI: Rohit Sharma (C), Ishan Kishan (wk), Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Verma, Tim David, Kieron Pollard, Daniel Sams, Hritik Shokeen, Jasprit Bumrah, Riley Meredith, Kumar Kartikeya.

Kolkata Knight Riders Probable Playing XI: Aaron Finch, Venkatesh Iyer, Shreyas Iyer (c), Nitish Rana, Baba Indrajit (wk), Andre Russell, Sunil Narine, Shivam Mavi, Tim Southee, Umesh Yadav, Varun Chakravarthy.
