Mumbai Indians vs Sunrisers Hyderabad - IPL 2023, Match 69
MI vs SRH Match Preview:
The Mumbai Indians must win this game to advance to the playoffs. A win here would not ensure a spot in the top four, as RCB has the same points with one match remaining.
Along with a win, MI requires an increase in NRR to overtake RCB and strengthen their prospects. MI bowlers have made early powerplay breakthroughs in recent games.
In their previous match against RCB, SRH failed to finish on a strong note. However, on a strong batting surface versus MI, they will bet on putting on a tremendous display towards the end.
MI has a strong batting lineup and will choose to bowl first if they win the toss. They can take advantage of Hyderabad’s bowling woes, especially after their recent RCB loss.
MI Preview:
- MI must recover from their recent loss, in which they failed to score 11 runs in the final over with Cameron Green and Tim David on the crease. In that over from Mohsin Khan, a 24-year-old uncapped bowler with only 12 IPL games, the two only managed to score 5 runs.
- Suryakumar Yadav and Nehal Wadhera, the vital middle-order hitters, failed to get going, hampering MI’s run-chase. While the form of Ishan Kishan and Rohit Sharma at the top is encouraging, MI’s finishers must deliver.
SRH Preview:
- In their previous encounter, Sunrisers Hyderabad were comfortably ahead of RCB at home. Klaasen’s century helped them set a 186-run total batting first, but it wasn’t enough when Kohli and Faf got going in the second half.
- It was a fantastic batting pitch in Hyderabad, and it will be even better at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. If SRH is to have a chance against MI, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and T Natarajan must be at their best.

Pitch Report:
MI’s final home game of the season will be played at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. It is a day game, and the weather prediction is gloomy, so there will be no dew. Early on, there may be some movement for new-ball bowlers. Day games at this arena may provide teams a better chance of protecting a total than night games. A score of 190 or more would be a competitive total for a team batting first.

MI vs SRH
CricAdvisor Predictions:While both teams are coming off losses, MI will have the advantage to begin with. They’ve played a lot of cricket on this field, and their main players are in great shape. The ground dimensions are inadequate, and we anticipate several sixes in this encounter. SRH will give a stiff challenge with the bat, but their bowling woes make it impossible for them to compete against such a quality opponent. MI has a clear advantage in this match and will begin as favorites in our match prediction.
MI will defeat SRH.
