Tomorrow there will be a clash between Hyderabad and Mumbai, Rohit’s team will have the last chance to go to the playoffs

Hyderabad vs Mumbai: Mumbai Indians, who have won the IPL title five times, if they want to make it to the IPL 2021 playoffs, then they will have to register a win in any condition in a ‘do or die’ match against Sunrisers Hyderabad on Friday. After defeating Rajasthan Royals by eight wickets, Mumbai are now in fifth place with 12 points from 13 matches. His net run rate is minus 0.048. Kolkata Knight Riders, on the other hand, have a run rate of 0.294 plus, which is in fourth place with 12 points from 13 matches. KKR is playing its last league match against Rajasthan today.

If Kolkata’s team beats Rajasthan, then it will get 14 points and its net run rate will also be better. In such a situation, even if Mumbai wins, it will be difficult for them to qualify, because there is a huge difference between KKR and their net run rate.

When asked whether a team like Sunrisers will get the advantage of playing the last match. Mumbai captain Rohit Sharma said, “All eight teams can beat each other. The good thing is that KKR’s match is before us so we will know what to do.”

On the other hand, Mumbai will just need a win if KKR loses against Rajasthan. Rohit (363 runs) will once again have to lead from the front. He has to convert a good start into a big score which he is not able to do in this IPL. At the same time, Ishan Kishan’s confidence would have increased by putting an aggressive half-century against the Royals.

However, the Mumbai team management will be happy with the performance of their bowlers, who bowled out the Royals for 90 in the previous match. Fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah has taken 19 wickets so far. In the last match, Nathan Coulter-Nile took four wickets. Trent Boult and spinner Jayant Yadav will also be expected to perform well.

On the other hand, Sunrisers Hyderabad, already out of the race for the playoffs, would like to bid farewell with a win. Captain Kane Williamson performed brilliantly in the last match and he would like to maintain the momentum. Cooperation will also be needed from Jason Roy, Abhishek Sharma, Priyam Garg, Abdul Samad and Wriddhiman Saha.
