IPL 2019: Match 51, Mumbai Indians vs Sunrisers Hyderabad – Statistical Preview

Mumbai Indians will take on the Sunrisers Hyderabad on Wednesday as they search for the 8th win to confirm their playoff berth and also a chance of finishing among top two. The Sunrisers, on the other hand, will take the field without both Jonny Bairstow and David Warner in their last two league matches. Given their high NRR, the Sunrisers could make a cut into the final four despite winning only seven matches. If SRH manages to defeat MI they will also cut short the 3-time winners’ road to the playoffs.
