High-Flying Mumbai Indians Face Daredevils In Crucial Tie

Delhi Daredevils have, however, struggled in every aspect of the game, highlighted by three dropped catches against Royals on Sunday.

Their bowlers also failed to function as a unit with big names Zaheer Khan, Nathan Coulter-Nile and spinner Amit Mishra going for plenty.

Batsman Yuvraj Singh, bought by Delhi for a whooping 16 crore in the tournament-preceding auction, is yet to strike form, scoring just 146 runs from nine games.

The visitors will have their task cut out and will need to go all out against a strong Mumbai side to keep their play-offs hope alive.

Mumbai and Delhi share six wins from last 12 head-to-head encounters.

The squads:

Mumbai Indians: Rohit Sharma (captain), Lasith Malinga, Kieron Pollard, Ambati Rayudu, Harbhajan Singh, Colin Munro, Aditya Tare, Jasprit Bumrah, Marchant de Lange, Pawan Suyal, Shreyas Gopal, Lendl Simmons, Pragyan Ojha, Mitchell McClenaghan, Abhimanyu Mithun, Aiden Blizzard, Akshay Wakhare, Nitish Rana, Siddhesh Lad, Hardik Pandya, Jagadeesha Suchith, Unmukt Chand, Vinay Kumar, Parthiv Patel, Ben Hilfenhaus.

Delhi Daredevils: JP Duminy (captain), Quinton de Kock, Mayank Agarwal, Manoj Tiwary, Yuvraj Singh, Saurabh Tiwary, Angelo Mathews, Kedar Jadhav, Imran Tahir, Amit Mishra, Shahbaz Nadeem, Zaheer Khan, Jaydev Unadkat, Mohammed Shami, C.M.
