Another formerly one-sided rivalry has balanced out in recent seasons with KKR catching up. They are off to a decent start this season with a win and a loss but their middle-order continues to be a little concerning. Their bowling might though has balanced things out. Mumbai are in with their own struggles. Like CSK, MI seem to be playing an outdated brand of Cricket at the moment and with Rohit Sharma failing at the top the holes in their line-up appears a lot bigger. Bumrah's absence is showing with the death looking weak and new-ball lacking bite.

Mumbai generally tends to be flat and with a lot of due. Batting second is a better choice.

Venkatesh Iyer
Iyer still hasn't much to do this season. He was in good form last year and is a pretty flexible batter which is what KKR are hoping will come in handy as he looks to be the middle-overs enforcer in the team.
Rohit Sharma
If there is one man who can put an end to Mumbai's struggles it is the great Rohit Sharma. He showed a very brief glimpse in the previous game but he needs to go deeper and harder with Mumbai really banking on him to make the difference.
KKR has dominated the match-up in recent times but this time Mumbai could find form and come out on top. Rohit is due a big score and where better than at home.
