The match between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Mumbai Indians is to be played today in the Indian Premier League (IPL). The match is to be played at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi, where it has rained heavily so far. Four matches of this season have been played on this ground and the team batting twice has scored 200+. After three of the four matches on this ground have been won by the batting teams, the team that wins the toss may decide to field first. The important question is, will David Warner return to Sunrisers Hyderabad's Playing XI? Mumbai Indians rarely make any changes in their winning combination.


The defending champions Mumbai Indians are 4th in the points table with four wins from seven matches. Mumbai Indians may not have had a good start this season, but the team has come back strongly to win two consecutive matches, one against Rajasthan Royals and the other against Chennai Super Kings at the second position at the point table. The morale of the team will be greatly increased. On the other hand, the Sunrisers Hyderabad team has lost six out of the seven matches played and is in the last position in the point table. Sunrisers Hyderabad lost by 55 runs against Rajasthan Royals in the last match. Kane Williamson was made the captain in place of David Warner before the match against Rajasthan Royals.

Who was found Coronavirus positive before the MI Vs SRH match?


The fans did not like Warner sitting outside and for this the team management had to listen to a lot of social media. Even against Mumbai Indians, it seems difficult for Warner to make a place in the playing XI. As a foreign player, Kane Williamson, Johnny Bairstow and Rashid Khan are set to play, while either Jason Holder or Mohammad Nabi can be given a place in the playing XI as an all-rounder.

Possible playing XI:

Sunrisers Hyderabad: Johnny Bairstow, Manish Pandey, Kane Williamson (Captain), Vijay Shankar, Kedar Jadhav, Jason Holder / Mohammad Nabi, Abdul Samad, Rashid Khan, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Khalil Ahmed, Sandeep Sharma.

Mumbai Indians: Quinton Dickock, Rohit Sharma (captain), Suryakumar Yadav, Kieron Pollard, Hardik Pandya, Krunal Pandya, James Neesham, Rahul Chahar, Dhawal Kulkarni, Trent Boult, Jaspreet Bumrah.
