KKR vs MI: Prediction for the match of the IPL | Odds2win

MI has lost both games so far while KKR has won two of their three games. Both teams have strong batting lineups, but MI's top order is stronger. KKR has a lot of power down the middle, but their bowling is definitely a bit vulnerable.

KKR has been quite successful at IPL 2022 so far. The standout player for it was a bit unexpected. Umesh Yadav found movement and bounce during the power play to consistently pick up wickets. We've seen in the past that he can fall away after a good start, thus KKR fans will be a little wary.

Having Umesh Yadav at their best is still a huge advantage as we don't think the rest of their bowling is very reliable. Tim Southee, Shivam Mavi and Andre Russell can all be very precious. Sunil Narine and Varun Chakravarthy will be more effective once the pitches slow down as well.

We're a little wary of putting money into this bowling attack on Mumbai Indians.

Sunil Narine could be one of the bowlers to watch out for. He has an excellent record against Rohit Sharma and can also be a tricky pick for the power hitters.

KKR's batting approach was very positive. They tend to keep attacking even when losing wickets, which requires modern T20 play.

Venkatesh Iyer and Ajinkya Rahane haven't really made a name for themselves. Shreyas Iyer has looked good in patches and Nitish Rana has struggled. However, Sam Billings and Andre Russell proved brilliant during the mid-overs.

We wouldn't mind placing a small bet on Shreyas Iyer or Sam Billings for the Top Batsman KKR betting market.

Mumbai Indians

MI lost two games and that's not unusual for a team known for slow starts in the IPL. However, three games in a row are starting to get really worrying and MI will be separated to fight back. They seemed to have the match in the bag against Delhi Capitals and were also on course to win against the Rajasthan Royals.

We believe that a match where its parts come together is at the door.

Rohit Sharma leads a very strong batting lineup that also includes Ishan Kishan, Tilak Varma, Kieron Pollard and Tim David. They miss Surya Kumar Yadav and there's a chance that he might be available for this game. Even if he isn't available, the team would believe they have the ammo needed to win.

There will be pressure on Pollard, David and even Sams. These are the overseas hitters/all-rounders currently playing for MI. Pollard has been a shadow of his former self for some time, while Sams and David have not been able to translate other leagues' successes to the IPL.

There are a number of players waiting in the wings like Dewald Brevis and Jaidev Unadkat who could get a game.

As bettors, we're not going to write off the Mumbai Indians' batting just yet.

The bowling lineup is led by Jasprit Bumrah and Tymal Mills, both in good form with three wickets each. Daniel Sams and Murugan Ashwin also bowl decently without too much reward. It will be very interesting to see if Basil Thampiu manages to keep his place in the team.

His only over went for 26 in the previous match. More ipl cricket match predictions can be obtained from the link provided.
