IPL2022 Match 56: Mumbai Indians Vs Kolkata Knight Riders
Mumbai Indians are all set to take on the Kolkata Knight Riders in an interesting contest at the Dr DY Patil Sports Academy in Navi Mumbai today.
Both teams haven’t had the best of runs in the tournament so far, and KKR are on the verge of joining MI as the team to have lost the chances of making to the playoffs of IPL 2022.
Mumbai Indians have managed to win their last two games despite a disastrous start, and they will certainly look to finish the tournament on a high.
On the other hand, the Kolkata Knight Riders started off the tournament brightly, but since then, it has been a downward spiral for them with six losses in the last seven games.
With just four wins in 11 games, KKR do not have much time to reassess their plans, and they will need to bring their A game out soon.
Aaron Finch and Baba Indrajith’s combination at the top is not working, and they are likely to bring in Ajinkya Rahane and Sam Billings to provide stability.
With the possibility of qualifying for the playoffs out of the equation, there isn't a lot Mumbai Indians are playing for any longer in IPL 2022.
So what motivates the five-time champions now, with four more games to go?
"How we've set up the rest of the tournament is that we've got a mini IPL, the last six games - we've played two of them already, we're just judging ourselves on that," Daniel Sams, the MI all-rounder, confessed ahead of their next encounter against Kolkata Knight Riders.
