– Going heavy on Mumbai Indians as they’re looking strong to win this encounter.
– Jasprit Bumrah looks a good captain choice as he has taken wickets at a strike rate of just 14 & 20 at venue and H2H matches respectively.
– Can go with anyone from Ishan Kishan or Rohit Sharma as VC as they might score maximum amount of runs by opening up the innings.
– Wriddhiman Saha might be a decent punt at the place of Jason Roy especially if Hyderabad bats second.
– Jason Holder and Kane Williamson can be tried as C/VCs in 10-20 members league.

– Dropped Jason Roy as he might not go big in two consecutive matches.
– Wriddhiman Saha has averaged above 40 in 12 H2H innings which makes him a good pick.
– Expecting Suryakumar Yadav to go big in this match as he has scored at an average of above 40 in 13 H2H innings.
– Can take Rahul Chahar at the place of James Neesham if he comes into XIs of this match.
– Try dropping Kane Williamson in your risky SL combinations as he has continuous failures in last 5 H2H innings.
