DATE : 18th of April 2023 ( 19:30 IST )

CITY : Hyderabad
CAPACITY : 55,000 and extends across 15 acres of the land
WEATHER REPORT

PITCH REPORT
The Wankhede Stadium is known for having batting-friendly pitches, but the fast bowlers are also anticipated to make a significant impact due to the bouncy nature of the surfaces. If a team wins the toss, it is highly probable that they will choose to bowl first.
SUNRISERS HYDERABAD RECENT PERFORMANCE
APRIL 2 - Sunrisers Hyderabad lost against Rajasthan Royals
April 7 - Sunrisers Hyderabad lost against Lucknow Super Giants
April 9 - Sunrisers Hyderabad won against Punjab Kings
After winning their first IPL trophy in 2016, Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) went through a rough patch. Their performance continued to decline in the 2022 season, where they finished near the bottom of the table, with only Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Mumbai Indians (MI) below them.
Nonetheless, the IPL auction presented the franchise with a chance to make amends. Although they had to spend a significant amount on Mayank Agarwal, Harry Brook, and Adil Rashid, the addition of these players has strengthened the team's line-up. Furthermore, the return of Washington Sundar from injury is a welcome boost, and Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Umran Malik are now considered one of the best opening bowling pairs in the competition.
However, the lack of backup options means that SRH will have to keep their best eleven players fit for every match.
MUMBAI INDIANS RECENT PERFORMANCE
April 2 - Mumbai Indian lost against Royal Challengers Bangalore
April 8 - Mumbai Indians lost against the Chennai Super Kings
April 11 - Mumbai Indians won against Delhi Capitals
Mumbai Indians (MI) have won the IPL trophy five times, making them the most successful franchise in the tournament's history. However, the departure of key all-rounders such as Hardik, Krunal, and Pollard has left the team weakened and vulnerable. This weakness was evident in their performance during the IPL 2023 season, where they finished at the bottom of the table.
Nonetheless, no other franchise has a batting line-up as strong as Rohit Sharma, Ishan Kishan, and Suryakumar Yadav. The addition of Cameron Green to the team could make up for the absence of Bumrah, who is still recovering from a back injury. However, the team's bowling will rely heavily on Jofra Archer. Fortunately for MI, Archer seems to be in good form and taking wickets.
WIN PROBABILITY
Based on the comparative strengths of the teams, we estimate that Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) have a 53% chance of winning against Mumbai Indians.

Sunrisers Hyderabad are likely to play Agarwal, Rahul Tripathi, Abhishek Sharma, Harry Brook, Glenn Philip, Aiden Markram, Mayank Markhande, Washington Sundar, Adil Rashid, Umran Malik, and Bhuvneshwar Kumar.
Mumbai Indians are expected to field Rohit Sharma, Ishan Kishan, Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Varma, Tim David, Cameron Green, Jhye Richardson, Jofra Archer, Piyush Chawla, Hrithik Shokeen, and Kumar Kartikeya.

PROBABLE BEST BOWLER
Our prediction for the upcoming match is that SRH's paceman, Umran Malik, is likely to be the standout bowler and emerge as the probable best bowler of the game.
