Today In IPL 2021, SRH v MI, 31st Match: Expected Playing XI
In the 31st match of IPL 2021, Sunrisers Hyderabad(SRH) will take on Mumbai Indians(MI) in Delhi. MI has already defeated SRH this season.
Sunrisers Hyderabad's batting has been poor so far this season. Individually, players like Jonny Bairstow, Manish Pandey, and Kane Williamson have done well to score runs but the rest of the lineup has been disappointing. They have opened up a space for a foreign player in the middle order after benching David Warner. Either Mohammad Nabi or Jason Holder will be playing the game.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar has had a poor season so far. Rashid Khan has been the sole warrior in the SRH bowling department to consistently take wickets and restrict runs.
Mumbai Indians are loving the Delhi wicket where they have freely scored runs. Apart from Hardik Pandya, all the batters are looking good to score runs at will. Kieron Pollard won them the last game with individual heroics.
Trent Bould and Rahul Chahar have been the star for MI this season. Jasprit Bumrah hasn't been among the wickets lately but will remain crucial at the death.
Mumbai Indians defeated Sunrisers Hyderabad earlier in this season. MI is once again looking good enough to beat SRH.
SRH Expected Playing XI - Jonny Bairstow (wk), Kane Williamson (c), Manish Pandey, Kedar Jadhav, Vijay Shankar, Mohammad Nabi/ Jason Holder, Abdul Samad, Rashid Khan, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Sandeep Sharma, Khaleel Ahmed
