MI vs SRH Prediction

Mumbai Indians are the former five-time champions in the Indian Premier League along with clinching two CLT20 titles and are likely favourites in the MI vs SRH prediction.

Sunrisers Hyderabad are former one-time champions, having won the tournament in 2016. When they take each other on in the upcoming edition, there will be plenty of interest for the MI vs SRH prediction.

SRH have given a tough fight to Mumbai Indians over the years but a major reason for that was Rashid Khan and David Warner. The two players SRH had a fallout with and parted ways ahead of the 2022 mega auction.

They opted to retain Kane Williamson, Abdul Samad and Umran Malik. Mumbai Indians had a different approach to their auction, with an eye on building a squad for the future.

MI’s trophy cabinet has 5 IPL trophy in 14 seasons whereas, SRH have managed to win that crown only once in 2016.

They broke the bank to get Ishan Kishan back. They brought in some terrific players in Tim David, Tymal Mills and Riley Meredith. MI also secured the services of Jofra Archer for the future seasons. Dewald Brevis was an excellent pick.

In the IPL 2022, MI and SRH are placed into two separate groups, where they will compete against each other only once in the league stage.

Overall, Mumbai Indians look a much stronger side, courtesy of their strong core and outstanding new additions. As such, the SRH vs MI prediction will incline towards Mumbai Indians.

MI vs SRH Match Prediction

Mumbai Indians have had a slight edge when it comes to the overall record between these two teams. They have faced each other in 18 matches, of which MI have claimed 10 while SRH have won 8 games, pretty much in sync with the MI vs SRH prediction.

With that history, the MI vs SRH match prediction could favour Mumbai Indians. Here we will pick up some clues to determine whether they really are favourites.

Sunrisers had a pretty ordinary auction performance, where they brought in too many supporting players. They did have some quality picks in Aiden Markram and Nicholas Pooran.

They bought back Bhuvneshwar Kumar and T Natarajan. Kartik Tyagi and Washington Sundar were two new additions.

Ishan Kishan has the fastest fifty for MI which he scored in 16 balls against SRH in the IPL 2021.

Cricket Betting

Mumbai Indians had to make some tough decisions with retentions as they had several quality options. In the end, they went with Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, Kieron Pollard and Suryakumar Yadav.

MI had to release the likes of Hardik Pandya, Ishan Kishan, Trent Boult and Quinton de Kock, who had been instrumental for the team in recent years.

Mumbai Indians won’t have to face their kryptonite Rashid Khan when they face SRH in the upcoming season. The current SRH bowling attack doesn’t possess any particular big threat for MI.

Mumbai have a pretty solid batting unit with Rohit Sharma, Ishan Kishan, Suryakumar Yadav, Tim David and Kieron Pollard. Their bowling attack of Jasprit Bumrah, Tymal Mills, Daniel Sams/Riley Meredith and Murugan Ashwin looks decent.

Sunrisers Hyderabad have plenty of holes in the side, mainly due to a cluster of the same type of players. The batting line-up of Abhishek Sharma, Rahul Tripathi, Kane Williamson, Aiden Markram and Abdul Samad, all of whom are likely in the playing XI, looks lacklustre.

Their bowling attack will have some combination of Bhuvneshwar Kumar, T Natarajan, Romario Shepherd, Kartik Tyagi, Umran Malik, Washington Sundar and Shreyas Gopal, with the quicks certain to start in the playing XI.

All in all, Mumbai Indians look a considerably better side on paper and will dominate the SRH vs MI today match prediction for the upcoming season.

That said the SRH vs MI can be a difficult IPL match prediction to make and will depend on the pitch report and playing XI too to an extent. When these two teams take each other on, it is really hard to weigh one team over the other.

If it’s a Rohit Sharma day, then nothing in the world can stop him. And if it’s the day when SRH is making the best use of its potential then it leaves no cavity for opponents to commit any mistake.

In IPL 2019, the last time these teams met in the Indian Premier League in India, we had a humdinger. In the 51st match of the tournament, SRH and MI faced each other at the Wankhede stadium.

Mumbai Indians scored 162/5 batting first. Adding to the drama, SunRisers Hyderabad also finished their innings at 162 runs when Manish Pandey sent Hardik Pandya for a six off the last ball.

That was how a goosebump-stricken Super Over had its foundation. In the Super Over, SRH could manage to play at only four balls as Jasprit Bumrah was on fire.

MI required nine runs to win. Hardik Pandya struck Rashid Khan for a first-ball sixer and so the rest was easy. MI claimed the place in the playoff and went on to be crowned Indian Premier League champions, making them the most successful team in IPL history.
