IPL 2024 – Match 55, MI vs SRH: Sunrisers Hyderabad Strongest Probable Playing 11 vs Mumbai Indians

Sunrisers Hyderabad will go head-to-head against Mumbai Indians in the 55th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 on May 6 at Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai.

After losing all four of their previous games and almost being out of the tournament, the hosts (Mumbai Indians) are gearing up for one final push.

They are eager to turn the tables on Sunrisers Hyderabad, who defeated them in the reverse fixture, dominating MI’s bowlers in a high-scoring affair at Uppal.

Riding high on the momentum of their last-ball thriller against the table-toppers Rajasthan Royals, Sunrisers Hyderabad are expected to stick with their successful playing 11 for their upcoming match.

Travis Head-Abhishek Sharma At The Top

The explosive opening duo of Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma, who have been consistently providing strong starts, will remain at the top of the order.

Aiden Markram is likely to replace Marco Jansen, who had minimal impact in the previous game.

Klaasen, Nitish Bolatering Middle Order

The middle order boasts power hitters like Heinrich Klaasen, Abdul Samad, and Nitish Kumar Reddy. Shahbaz Ahmed can also contribute with the bat.

Captain Pat Cummins will lead the fast bowling attack, supported by their all-time best T Natarajan and Bhuvneshwar Kumar.

Jaydev Unadkat might come in as an impact substitute in the playing XI while the spin department features the potential of Mayank Markande.
