KKR vs MI Match Preview:

Kolkata Knight Riders batting hasn't started the tournament that well. The top order especially hasn't looked threatening from the opponent's POV. The focus will be on Shreyas Iyer's role with the bat. Andre Russell's magnificent inning took KKR home and he will be expected to deliver a similar performance in this match as well. 

Pat Cummins is expected to be available for this game. It'll be interesting to see who he will replace considering how well Tim Southee has done in the two games he played. There is a chance Cummins might have to sit out as well. 

Mumbai's batting is relying on young blood - Ishan Kishan and Tilak Verma. These two have looked brilliant but the rest have still not arrived in the season. Suryakumar Yadav's addition will be a big boost for the team. MI's bowling could see at least one change with Jaydev Unadkat coming in for Basil Thampi.
