KKR vs MI Match Preview

The Kolkata Knight Riders will face the Mumbai Indians in Match 60 of the 2024 Indian Premier League on Saturday evening at Eden Gardens. KKR leads the table with eight wins from 11 games, while Mumbai Indians are four points behind the top four with two games remaining. KKR have been in excellent form throughout the tournament, but they appear to have improved even further in recent games. Their success has been built on the attacking and consistent opening pair of Phil Salt and Sunil Narine, who we expect to carry the attack to Mumbai once more in this match. After a string of defeats, the Mumbai Indians rebounded with an impressive victory over a very strong Sunrisers Hyderabad side on Monday.

Topmost Picks for KKR vs MI Dream11 Prediction:

Top Picks – Mumbai Indians

• Tilak Varma – Tilak Varma has also looked in decent touch at times but failed to score big. However, he still has 343 runs to his name, including three fifties.
• Gerald Coetzee – Gerald Coetzee has also picked crucial wickets, even though he has been a tad expensive with an economy of over 10 runs per over.

Top Picks – Kolkata Knight Riders

• Sunil Narine- the 35 year old has been producing with both bat and ball on a consistent basis in IPL 2024 season and Friday’s game was another with four overs costing only 24 runs as well as hitting 13 boundaries.
• Mitchell Starc- the Australian left-arm pace bowler has been expensive in the tournament but he is a very dangerous bowler and KKR could do with his attacking mentality with the ball in this game.

KKR vs MI Probable Winners:

The Mumbai Indians’ win over Sunrisers Hyderabad was the type of performance that cricket experts expected to see on a regular basis this season, but for whatever reason, it has not occurred. The question now is whether Mumbai can repeat their performance against KKR at Eden Gardens. We predict a close game, but we believe KKR’s batting power will be too strong, and the hosts will win on Saturday evening. Considering the team combination, Kolkata Knight Riders are expected to win this match.
