The upcoming afternoon fixture in the Indian Premier League (IPL) on Sunday carries immense importance for both Mumbai Indians (MI) and Delhi Capitals (DC) as they aim to reverse their recent poor form. Positioned towards the bottom of the league standings, with MI at the very bottom following three successive defeats and DC just one place above after a significant loss, both teams are desperate for a turnaround.

SKY Set To Return For MI

All eyes are on Suryakumar Yadav, who is making a comeback from injury, with his performance eagerly awaited. With the T20 World Cup looming, his return holds significant importance, both for his IPL franchise and the national team. Having been spotted practicing at the Wankhede Stadium, Suryakumar’s preparation involved batting drills and fitness exercises, signaling his readiness to strengthen MI’s lineup.

Despite making promising starts, MI’s batting unit, led by Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan, has struggled to convert those starts into substantial scores. Similarly, Delhi’s batting has heavily relied on Rishabh Pant, who has found form with consecutive half-centuries, and David Warner. However, other key players like Prithvi Shaw and Mitchell Marsh are yet to make a significant impact this season.

While the return of star player Pant has injected some energy into the DC lineup, the team’s overall performance has been inconsistent. Their recent match highlighted weaknesses, particularly in the bowling department, as DC conceded a high total and suffered a batting collapse during their chase.

MI Probable Playing XI

Ishan Kishan(w), Rohit Sharma, Tilak Varma, Suryakumar Yadav Hardik Pandya(c), Tim David, Romario Shepherd, Gerald Coetzee, Piyush Chawla, Akash Madhwal, Jasprit Bumrah

DC Probable Playing XI
