Preview: On May 6 at Wankhede Stadium, the Mumbai Indians (MI), who are presently at the bottom of the standings, will play the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH). With four straight losses and almost eliminated from the tournament, the hosts will try one more time. They would want to exact revenge on SRH, who defeated them in the rematch in a high-scoring match in which SRH repeatedly attacked MI’s bowlers.
For SRH, there is absolutely everything on the line, including a chance to advance to the Playoffs. They would be hoping to maintain the same by building on their one-run success over the Rajasthan Royals in their previous encounter.
Indian Premier League 2024, 55th T20 match, IPL 2024, MI vs SRH
Venue: Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai
Date & Time: Monday, May 6, 7:30 PM
Pitch Report: One of the Indian Premier League’s most evenly distributed fields is that of Wankhede Stadium. The red soil deck (from Matheran) is supposed to help the pacers early in the game and the spinners later on. Due to the location facing the sea, the humid circumstances also make dew an issue in night games. In order to take advantage of the Mumbai weather twice, the captain who wins the toss may prefer to bowl first.
