IPL 2021: MI vs SRH – Match 9, Match Prediction – Who Will Win Today’s Match?

MI vs SRH Dream11 Prediction: The 9^th match of the 14^th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2021) will be played between Mumbai Indians and Sunrisers Hyderabad at Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai on Saturday, April 17, 2021.

MI vs SRH Match Preview

Match number nine of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2021) will see defending champions Mumbai Indians take on Sunrisers Hyderabad at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Saturday.

SunRisers Hyderabad have lost both their matches so far, falling short twice during chasing the games. Now they find themselves with zero points after two games and facing the best team in the league. The low-scoring game against RCB would have hurt David Warner a lot given how his team crumbled. They were so close to victory in their last match, however Mumbai Indians bowlers broke their batting spine and Hyderabad lost the match by a narrow margin.

Mumbai, on the other hand had a close contest against Kolkata Knight Riders but haven’t quite hit their straps so far. Their bowling has continued to impress, but the batting has come a cropper twice and Sunrisers will be eyeing this chink the armour.

In 16 matches between these teams, both have won 8 games each. Last year too, MI and SRH won a game each which shows how tight the games have been between these two fantastic sides.

MI vs SRH Weather & Pitch Report

Pitch Report

The pitch at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai definitely provides some assistance to the bowlers, especially the spinners. The battle between SRH and MI will be interesting from this aspect as both the teams have two celebrated spin bowlers in the form of Rashid Khan and Krunal Pandya. Meanwhile, the batsmen can also put up a good show in the stadium as seen in the last match but they should give time to themselves to get settled on the pitch before executing some power-hitting.

Weather Conditions

The weather is unlikely to disturb the game between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Mumbai Indians in Chepauk as there are no signs of rainfall. Just like the previous games played at the stadium, the weather is expected to be hot and humid with a maximum temperature of 31 degree Celsius and a minimum temperature of 27 degree Celsius.
