Preview

After 55 matches of thrilling contest, we have come down to the last game and finally, the teams for playoffs will also be finalised. Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) have a great chance to make it to the top four with a win over the table-toppers, however, for that to happen, they will have to play some top-class cricket. Not that they haven’t played so far. They are coming off stunning victories over RCB and DC in their last two matches.

MI, on the other hand, are sitting pretty and have distanced themselves from all the drama in the rest of the points table. It also remains to be seen if their regular skipper Rohit Sharma is fit and available for them ahead of the crucial playoffs week. Having said that, their current combination is doing perfectly well and they might look to rest their top players in this match.
