DC vs MI Dream11 Prediction: The 13th match of the 14th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2021) will be played between Delhi Capitals and Mumbai Indians at M. A. Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai on Tuesday, April 20, 2021.

DC vs MI Match Preview

The five times champion Mumbai Indians and last year’s runner up Delhi Capitals are going to face each other in the 13th match of the VIVO IPL 2021. 

Both the teams have won two games out of the three they played so far. Mumbai Indians have justified their name as “defending champions” in their last game against Sunrisers Hyderabad.  Mumbai, batted first and posted 150 for 5 in the scheduled 20 overs, thanks to Quinton de Kock (40 off 39) and Kieron Pollard (35 off 22) brilliant knocks. They looked completely out of the match when David Warner and Jonny Bairstow smashed the bowlers all around the park.

However, one can not take MI bowlers lightly and they have proved it on many occasions, including the last match, where they completely destructed the middle order and lower middle order of the SRH. The same kind of performance can be expected from them in their next fixture against Delhi Capitals. However, their middle-order needs to provide more contribution to the team. 

Delhi Capitals, on the other hand, are also enjoying their season with their new captain Rishabh Pant. They have won their last match against Punjab Kings by 6 wickets. Shikhar Dhawan played a brilliant inning of 92 to lead the Capitals’ chase and the rest chipped in with contributions of various size. 

Well, Dhawan was not the only hero of the match as the Australian all-rounder Marcus Stoinis (27 off 13) was the man who took their side to the finish line. Steve Smith will be given another chance despite a scratchy 9 before considering Shimron Hetmyer. 

As long as their head to head record is concerned, out of 28 matches between Delhi Capitals (DC) and Mumbai Indians (MI) in VIVO IPL, Delhi won 12 games while Mumbai won 16 games. More recently, in the last edition of VIVO IPL, Mumbai Indians won all four games against Delhi Capitals. Much will depend on Kagiso Rabada, who hasn’t really clicked in IPL 2021, but with the likes of Chris Woakes and Avesh Khan also impressing, Delhi should fancy a win on Tuesday.

With two valuable points up for grabs, both sides will fight for it and would want to continue their winning momentum.

Here are the match details, pitch report, probable playing 11, squads and Dream11 fantasy team predictions for Match 13 of the 14th edition of Indian Premier League (IPL 2021) between Delhi Capitals and Mumbai Indians on Tuesday, April 20, 2021.

The pitch is on the slower side, with the average first innings score in Chennai being 162. Although there isn’t much swing on offer, there is ample turn available off the surface to keep the spinners interested. Run-scoring is distinctly easier against the new ball.
