IPL 2022: Picks for the match between Mumbai Indians and Kolkata Knight Riders

Five-time champions Mumbai Indians will lock horns against two-time winners Kolkata Knight Riders in the 56th match of the Indian Premier League 2022 at the Dr. DY Sports Academy, Mumbai on Monday.

KKR, who has been out of form will take on their bogey team Mumbai Indians, as the latter has a great record against their opponent.

We take a look at Picks for the match between Mumbai Indians and Kolkata Knight Riders. We will look at head-to-head records, stats, and players to look out for in the upcoming match.

Current form for MI: W W L L L

Mumbai Indians are already out of the playoff race and thus they can be party spoilers for the other teams. MI can now play without any pressure and they will look to bring their best in the last remaining matches. The five-time champions will look to end their campaign on a high after a disappointing run.

Current form for KKR: L W L L L

KKR has struggled to find any kind of impetus in their last five matches as they have managed a solitary win. Their batting unit hasn’t delivered the goods and thus there has been a lot of chopping and changing. KKR will need to turn the tables to stay alive in the ongoing season.

Head to Head: Matches: 30, Won by MI: 22, Won by KKR: 8.

MI clearly holds the wood on KKR in the head-to-head battle.

Players to watch out for: Ishan Kishan, Rohit Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav, Kieron Pollard, Tim David, and Jasprit Bumrah will hold the key for Mumbai Indians.

Tim Southee, Shreyas Iyer, V, Umesh Yadav, Sunil Narine, and Andre Russell will be the crucial players for KKR.

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.
