Mumbai Indians will be looking to their experienced campaigners like Rohit Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav, and Jasprit Bumrah to deliver match-winning performances. Young talents like Tilak Varma have also shown promise for the five-time champions.
What’s At Stake
For both teams, tonight’s match carries significant playoff implications.
