Both teams are coming off wins, but their recent form hasn’t been convincing. It could be anyone’s match, so I am looking at the sixes market. Mumbai and Hyderabad have been among the lowest scorers of sixes this season. I am putting my money on fewer than 20.5 sixes.
- Sunrisers saw under 20.5 sixes in 3 of their last 4 matches.
- Mumbai saw fewer than 21 sixes in 4 of their last 5 matches.
- Mumbai Indians average only 8 sixes per match this season.
- Sunrisers Hyderabad average only 8.83 sixes per match this year.
Head to Head
This fixture has been closely fought over the years, with Mumbai holding a 12-10 win-loss record in 23 H2Hs. One match ended in a tie.
It’s Mumbai who won the latest match, at this venue last season, by a seven-wicket margin. Before that fixture, the Sunrisers won by 31 runs in Hyderabad. At this venue, it was the Mumbai Indians who won five of the eight games played against Hyderabad, losing two.
Mumbai Indians Form
Mumbai Indians are seventh in the points tally with four points from six matches. They are level on points with the three teams below them but have the best run rate of all four sides.
They are coming off a 12-run win over Delhi to snap a two-game losing sequence. Indeed, a bold wager on a recurrence could prove beneficial.
Rohit Sharma (56 runs) continues to struggle, but SKY (239) and Tilak Varma (210 runs, 2x50) have found their range. With the ball, captain Hardik Pandya (ten wickets) remains their best bowler, while surprisingly, Jasprit Bumrah is conceding at 9.12 runs per over after two matches.

Rohit’s form is the biggest concern, but he may not yet be dropped unless they bring in Bevon Jacobs in place of Will Jacks and push Rohit down the order.
Sunrisers Hyderabad Form
Sunrisers Hyderabad are ninth in the standings with four points from six matches and are only separated from the basement franchise, Chennai Super Kings.
The Hyderabad boys are coming off a stunning eight-wicket win over Punjab Kings, where they chased 246, the second-highest in the tournament's history.
Abhishek Sharma returned to form with a fabulous 141, but Hyderabad will hope for more runs from Travis Head (214, SR 186.08). The bowlers haven’t quite found their mark, and the highest wicket-taker remains Harshal Patel (eight).

Adam Zampa left the camp, and Hyderabad added Smaran Ravichandran. He may not get a game immediately.
