Mumbai Indians

Match Prediction IPL 2017: First Innings Score

The Mumbai Indians will get over 160+ with the explosive form of Buttler at the top and Pandya in the middle order to get Mumbai past 160 with his explosive hitting.

The onus is on youngsters

Having lost their first match of the tournament against Pune, the Mumbai Indians have bounced back by winning a thriller against KKR. The stepping up of young guns like Rana and Pandya is a sign of tremendous growth for the franchise which in the earlier seasons often found itself relying too heavily on big guns like Rohit Sharma, Harbhajan, Malinga, and Pollard.

Malinga is back, still not at his best though

Malinga is back into the Mumbai Indians side and began his IPL 2017 with 36 runs in 4 overs but more importantly grabbing 2 key wickets that of Surya Kumar and Woakes. Malinga will, however, know that going at 9.00 to the over is not something that Mumbai Indians expect of him as he’s sure a wicket taker but also someone who puts a break on the flow of runs – which is something that he needs to work on for the coming matches.

Pandya Brothers – Mumbai Indians new stars

The rise of Pandya brothers is benefiting the Mumbai Indians franchise to a great extent. Krunal Pandya grabbed 3 wickets in his 4 overs and gave away just 24 runs and while his brother wasn’t asked to do any job with the ball, he did his bit for the team with the bat – scoring 29 off 11 balls which no doubt was THE innings that made the match for the Mumbai Indians.

Sunrisers Hyderabad

Match Prediction IPL 2017: First Innings Score

The Sunrisers Hyderabad will get over 170+ based on the recent form shown by their batsmen.

Sunrisers Hyderabad has perfect balance

The unbeaten run for the side continues from IPL 2016 and their form thus far in the tournament gives indications into the fact that Hyderabad may well be the leading contenders this year too for the trophy. The Sunrisers Hyderabad unit looks the strongest in the competition for they have an ideal set of overseas talent matched with great local talent. It’s not often that a side in IPL gets their balance this right.

The captain has found form at the right time

The coming into the form of David Warner comes as even great news for the team. With a dry patch following this little dynamo from Australia for a few months, Warner would’ve loved his stay at the crease against the Gujarat Lions with a 76*, that included 4 sixes. His form was the key to the Hyderabad franchise winning last year’s IPL and should Warner continue this form – the chances to defend the title look really strong.

Rashid Khan – the IPL 2017 success story

IPL is known to bring cricketers from different nations on one platform and is often regarded as a great tournament because it changes cricketer’s lives, one such success story from this year’s IPL will be that of Rashid Khan. The 18-year-old Afghanistani cricketer got sold for 4cr in auctions and has already scalped 5 wickets in his 2 matches – he’s truly justifying the price Hyderabad paid to get him into their side.

Match Prediction IPL 2017: Who will win the match?

The Sunrisers Hyderabad has momentum and balance -2 lethal weapons in any format of cricket. They look set to make it 3 out of 3 in IPL 2017.

Match Prediction IPL 2017: Key Player

Lasith Malinga’s form with the ball often changes the game in Mumbai Indians favor. We predict that he will get more than 1 scalp in the match against the Sunrisers Hyderabad – for he is the big match player.
