IPL 2020, KXIP vs MI Highlights: Mumbai Indians Inflict Massive 48-Run Defeat On Kings Eleven Punjab

Background

Defending champions Mumbai Indians (MI) will square off against Kings Eleven Punjab (KXIP) in the thirteenth game of the IPL 2020 to played at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi on Thursday (October 1). The match is scheduled for a 7:30 PM start with the toss be held at 7 pm (IST).

Both KXIP and MI come into the game on the back of losses against Rajasthan Royals and Royal Challengers Bangalore respectively. While KXIP suffered a heartbreaking defeat as RR chased down a mammoth 224-run total against them, Mumbai Indians were edged in a thrilling Super Over by Royal Challengers Bangalore.

Mumbai Indians do enjoy a slight edge over Kings Eleven Punjab in their past encounters, having won 13 of the 24 matches. However, it will be a level playing field for both teams as the conditions are pretty new in the UAE and the home advantage factor does get negated.

Kings Eleven Punjab's batting has looked good at the top with skipper KL Rahul and Mayank Agarwal firing on all cylinders. However, they will look for power hitter Glen Maxwell and Nicholas Pooran to provide the late impetus down the order. KXIP might contemplate playing Chris Gayle against MI after Windies has been pretty up and down.

Mumbai Indians batsmen have also notched up some decent performances with Rohit Sharma coming good against KKR and Ishan Kishan playing an absolute blinder against RCB to take them to the brink of a win.

However, MI will look for a more collective by their batting unit as power hitter in Hardik Pandya, Krunal Pandya and Kieron Pollard are still to get into their groove.

The seamers on both ends have been among the wickets but have also gone for quite a few runs. Mohammad Shami has once again been pretty impressive for KXIP with the new ball but has gone for runs at the back end. Punjab might drop Windies seamer Sheldon Cottrell was taken to the cleaners by Rahul Tewatia in the last game against RR.

Jasprit Bumrah, Trent Boult and James Pattinson do make up a strong bowling unit for Mumbai but are yet to deliver to their fullest potential.

KXIP spinners Ravi Bishnoi and Murugan Ashwin have been able to control proceedings to a fair bit and would again come to play against the MI batting in the middle overs. Meanwhile, Mumbai Indians are heavily dependent on Rahul Chahar and Krunal Pandya in the spin department.
