MI Vs KKR Pitch Report: Mumbai Indians (MI) will lock horns with Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in match number 12 of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL). MI, led by Hardik Pandya, will look for a turnaround after two losses as they take on KKR at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. Traditionally slow starters, MI will look to sharpen their bowling plans and attain consistency in their batting lineup. While Rohit Sharma and Ryan Rickelton are struggling at the top, Suryakumar Yadav and Tilak Varma remain key hopes for the five-time IPL champions. 

Meanwhile, KKR under the leadership of Ajinkya Rahane will aim to build on their momentum following a victory over Rajasthan Royals. Their spin duo Sunil Narine and Varun Chakravarthy is expected to be back after the former missed the team's previous match.
