KKR vs MI, IPL 2022
Who will win today’s IPL match between KKR and MI?
In lPL 2022 season, KKR will play its 4th match against the 3rd match of MI in Pune. Currently, KKR has won 2 out of 3 matches and MI is lagging behind with no win in the two matches it played. The matches with Delhi Capitals and Rajasthan Royals could not let them succeed in its opening matches
Though at this early stage, current table positions change very frequently after every match being played, these contribute to the strong or weak base for the team in qualifying as well as momentum building. For now, MI is in the eighth position and this win can make them a step up with some limitations, similarly, KKR which is second right now, can take the top position with this win.
Cricket Analysis
After doing a head-to-head analysis of each player in both the teams, despite having lost both the previous matches Mumbai Indians are more likely to win this game than KKR who has won 2/3 matches. Yet there is a chance of continuing the winning streak by KKR as they have developed momentum and psychological dominance over MI. In the last match of KKR, the outclass performance of Andrew Russel of 70 runs in 31 balls against Punjab Kings led the team to win the match with 5 overs remaining.
Having said so, we can never ignore the previous record, and despite all odds, the chances of win of its game by MI are more than KKR despite having no form of players and furthermore absence of key players. Though the panic has not developed yet in the dressing room but still, the criticism faced by the team and pressure developed on them, that being one of the best teams losing their opening matches, to win this game will be very important for them.
Suryakumar Yadav will also be available in the next match against KKR as a force multiplier for the team, but at the same time, Pat Cummins will also be available with KKR in the next match so the ratio can remain the same as far as new players are concerned.
Till now total matches played between two teams are 29 and in those 22 were won by MI and KKR won only 7, but it hardly matters once the form of the team or the key players is varying in every season or every match.
Game Prediction
Keeping in view the detailed analysis above, the history of both teams and the batting line of MI, the chances of winning for MI are more than KKR.
Andrew Russel can be dangerous for MI and Rohit Sharma can perform well for MI. in bowling Varun and Bumrah can be a source of headache for the opponents
