Mumbai Indians face the Delhi Capitals hurdle
The Delhi Capitals take on Mumbai Indians in top of the table clash at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium, Abu Dhabi. Mumbai Indians, who started on a slow note, have picked up the pace with consecutive wins. Rohit Sharma's consistency at the top of the order has given them the much-needed boost. On the bowling front, Jasprit Bumrah, Trent Boult, James Pattinson have fired in unison, picking crucial breakthroughs at regular intervals.
Delhi Capitals are one of the most settled and balanced outfits in the competition. They have started the campaign on a high, securing five wins in their six fixtures. The Delhi-based franchise would be pleased that most of their batsmen - Shreyas Iyer, Rishab Pant and Marcus Stoinis are in a scintillating form. The Protea bowling duo, Kagiso Rabada and Anrich Nortje have been a revelation this year. The two pacers have combined to pick 23 wickets.
As one would expect, given their position in the points table, there aren't many plugs to fill in for the teams. Both the sides will look to consolidate their top spot with a win here on Sunday.
