MI vs DC Pitch Report

The wicket at the Wankhede Stadium generally favours the batters. But in the only game that has been played here this season, the faster bowlers looked unplayable. However, it was a freshly laid wicket, and we expect that the match against DC will be played on a more batting-friendly wicket. Also, it will be a day game, and we can expect less movement with the new ball. 

Wankhede Stadium Ground Stats (IPL 2024)

Matches: 1
Matches won batting first: 0
Matches won batting second: 1

Average first innings score: 125
Average second innings score: 127
Highest total recorded: 127/4 by Rajasthan Royals vs Mumbai Indians
Lowest total recorded: 125/9 by Mumbai Indians vs Rajasthan Royals

Fantasy value from the pitch report

• This match is expected to be played on a track different from the MI vs RR match. Batters will enjoy the surface, and top-order batters will be good picks. 
• The wicket will slow down a bit as the game progresses, and as it is a day game, we can expect the spinners to have a say in this match.

MI vs DC Fantasy Cricket Tips

Mumbai Indians Heavy Fantasy XI

• The Wankhede Stadium recorded a pretty big total in IPL 2023. It was a batting-friendly condition, and the same can be expected in this match. Tilak Varma and Rohit Sharma could be important if you go with a Mumbai Indians-heavy fantasy XI. 
• It is excellent news for the MI fans that Suryakumar Yadav will be available to play in this game. If he makes it to the playing XI, he will be an excellent choice for the fantasy contests. 
• Jasprit Bumrah and Piyush Chawla will be the best choices from the bowling section of the Mumbai Indians. 

Delhi Capitals Heavy Fantasy XI

• Rishabh Pant has found his rhythm with the bat and will be the most obvious choice for DC batting. In addition to Pant, we can have David Warner and Tristan Stubbs on your team. 
• If Kuldeep Yadav makes a comeback, he should be your first choice for the DC bowling. Alongside Yadav, Khaleel Ahmed and Anrich Nortje could also be good choices. 

MI vs DC Winner Prediction

While Mumbai Indians have been entirely off the track, Delhi Capitals have also struggled with their form. However, the five-time champions will be desperate to get off the mark in the points tally and might win the game. 

MI vs DC Top Player Picks

Tilak Varma (MI)

• IPL 2024 Stats: 121 runs in 3 Matches
• The young left-handed batter has looked like the brightest prospect in the MI top order. Tilak Varma is in good touch and will be a top pick for the game. 

Suryakumar Yadav (MI)

• IPL 2024 Stats: This will be his first match in IPL 2024. 
• The biggest and best news in the last few days for the Mumbai Indians has been the return to fitness of Suryakumar Yadav. It is expected that SKY will be a part of the playing unit in this game, and if he does, he will be a prime choice for the fantasy contests. 

Rishabh Pant (DC)

• IPL 2024 Stats: 152 Runs in 4 Matches
• The DC-skipper has returned well to the cricketing action after his long absence. Rishabh Pant has found a good rhythm in this tournament and will be a prime choice for the fantasy contests of the match. 

Khaleel Ahmed (DC)

• IPL 2024 Stats: 6 Wickets in 4 Matches
• Rishabh Pant has used Khaleel Ahmed cleverly in the IPL, and his efforts have paid off in almost all game stages. With six wickets under his belt in four games, Ahmed is currently his team's best wicket-taker and will be an excellent option for the match's fantasy contests. 

MI vs DC Differential Picks

Rohit Sharma (MI) 

• IPL 2024 Stats: 69 Runs in 3 Matches
• The Indian skipper is yet to fire in this tournament. Rohit has looked in good touch but has failed to convert his starts. However, a return to his home ground might help him return to form.

Tristan Stubbs (DC)

• IPL 2024 Stats: 103 Runs in 4 Matches
• The young South African batter showed his antics with the bat under pressure against the Kolkata Knight Riders. Tristan Stubbs's aggressive batting style could impact the game, making him a risky yet high-return choice.
