🏏IPL 2023: Match 16 - MI vs DC on 11/04/23 at 7:30 PM IST 🏏 - Page 3

Possible team changes for MI: Will Jofra Archer play tonight? He missed the last game due to a niggle, but early indications are that he might slot back into the XI and will most likely replace Jason Behrendorff. They might also bring in Sandeep Warrier in place of Arshad Khan. That said, a lot depends on the result of the toss and the nature of the surface of course.

Afeef: "I remember a similar scenario 5 seasons ago, in 2018. Mumbai and Delhi were the only teams that were winless and they faced off at the Wankhede. Jason Roy scored a fantastic 91 to give Delhi Daredevils their first win of the season. Eventually DD finished last that season and MI also narrowly missed out on qualifying, as DD beat them in their last match of the season."

For DC: Sarfaraz Khan to play? Phil Salt to make his IPL debut? Would they be tempted to give a chance to Yash Dhull? With 3 losses from 3 games, DC are expected to make a few changes tonight

Mumbai's problems aren't limited to their bowling of course. The pressing issue of Suryakumar Yadav's form is also weighing on their gameplans. He's in a rare old trough at the moment, including his trio of golden ducks for India against Australia last month. Still, the former national coach Ravi Shastri isn't concerned. One good hit is all it takes.

Hello, hello! It's game 16. Two teams that are yet to taste a win this season will lock horns tonight. While Mumbai picked just 5 wickets from 2 games, Delhi claimed 14 from 3 games so far. As if that wasn't annoying enough, both teams were completely outplayed, which in turn, had a massive toll on their net run rate as well. One positive to look forward to from a game's point of view, however, is that one team will surely get off the mark tonight. And yes, we expect no weather interruptions for the rest of the evening as DC get set to host one of the most successful IPL side over the years, the Mumbai Indians.

smug: "On form and personnel hard to see DC winning this barring for someone like Shaw or Nortje turn in with an outstanding performance. For Mumbai it is about one or two more individuals stepping up. They have looked better as a team than DC."

Shaminder: "If I was Delhi coach, I would have drafted Mustafizur, Nagarkoti and Ngidi as the seam bowling options just to mix things up. David Warner and Powell the other 2 overseas playes."
