Preview

Mumbai and Delhi are set to face each other in match 46 of the Indian T20 League 2021 on October 2 at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium. While Delhi are just a win away from reaching the playoffs, Mumbai have a daunting task ahead of them. With a solitary win in the last 4 games, the men in blue now have to win the majority of their remaining fixtures to make it to the final four. In their last tie Mumbai put up a decent all round show to topple Punjab. Kieron Pollard grabbed 2 wickets and scored a brisk 15 to help the 5 time champions return to winning ways. Delhi on the other hand are on the brink of qualifiers and would certainly look to book their place. With only three positions up for grabs, Rishabh Pant’s men would leave no stones unturned to guarantee their place. Despite a loss in their last fixture, Delhi are in cruise control with 16 points to their name. Ahead of this riveting encounter, let us have a look at how these two sides will fare out in today’s clash.

Pitch & Weather Report

The pitch at Sharjah hasn’t been generous to the batsmen this season. The sluggish conditions have enforced batsmen to be watchful with their approach. Spinners will get some assistance from the slow and dry surface whereas the pace bowlers will come in handy at the back end of the match. The average temperature will hover around the range of 34-37 degree celsius with partly cloudy skies.

Match Prediction

Mumbai would be eyeing to sustain the winning momentum when they take the field against Delhi. Hardik Pandya’s return to form is good news for the men in blue. Delhi batters on the other hand should display a better sense of application. They were woeful in the last game and Rishabh Pant would be expecting his batting unit to come up good against the potent bowling unit of Mumbai. Based on the depth and balance within the squad, we put our bets on Mumbai to emerge victorious.
