In recent matches, Nitish Kumar Reddy has blossomed into one of the most promising players for SRH, contributing 219 runs. His emergence has alleviated a considerable amount of pressure from the team’s key batters.
India‘s vice-captain, Hardik Pandya, has faced consistent scrutiny for his lackluster performance with both bat and ball, as well as his on-field decisions as MI skipper. Nevertheless, the all-rounder is eager to turn the tide and silence the critics who have been vocal since the beginning of this IPL season.

Typically, the Wankhede wicket is a batsman’s dream. Yet, Mumbai stumbled in their last match against Kolkata Knight Riders, failing to chase a target over 167 despite the dew. This raises questions: Are the pitches wearing down in the latter half of the season, or was this merely a singular instance against Kolkata Knight Riders, where spinners dominated? Only time will tell.
