MI v DC Dream11 Prediction, IPL 2024, Match 20: Mumbai Indians vs Delhi Capitals playing XI, fantasy team today’s and squads

Preview 

Hardik Pandya and Rishabh Pant will step into the Wankhede Stadium with huge pressure on their shoulders. The sword of repercussion for the bad start to the season hangs over both captains ahead of the game on Sunday afternoon. 

Mumbai Indians (MI) have had a terrible start to their IPL campaign once again. All the controversies seem to be playing on their mind as the five-time winners look a disjointed side. It is time for the senior pros to take this as a challenge. 

Delhi Capitals (DC) saw Sunil Narine and Angkrish Raghuvanshi slam their bowlers to all parts of the ground in the last game. The 106-run defeat has given their net run rate a huge dent. Rishabh Pant knows that one more loss will create a lot of uncomfortable questions about his team.

Mumbai’s strip will aid the batters during the afternoon game as the weather has been extremely hot.

Top players for MI vs DC Dream 11 Match 

Top Players – Mumbai Indians 

Tilak Varma – It has been yet another season where young Tilak Varma has risen to the fore with the bat for Mumbai Indians. The 22-year-old has been the best batter for the five-time champions and he would look to put up a big score on Sunday against Delhi Capitals. 

Jasprit Bumrah – Mumbai Indians have had a huge problem with their bowling this season. The burden of bowling well and keeping his team in the hunt has fallen on Jasprit Bumrah. The 30-year-old has a decent record against DC and he will continue to do the same. 

Top Players – Delhi Capitals  

David Warner – Australian batting superstar David Warner has scored 148 runs from 4 games with an average of 37. The left-handed batter has already scored a fifty and would want to put pressure on the weak MI bowling line-up. 

Rishabh Pant – Despite missing 15 months of cricketing action, it almost feels like Rishabh Pant was never away. The 26-year-old has shown his best form with the bat slamming two successive fifties. If he continues his blistering form on Sunday MI bowlers will be in heaps of trouble. 

MI vs DC Must Picks for Dream 11 Cricket 

Suryakumar Yadav – Mumbai Indians fans are set to heave a huge sigh of relief as their favourite SKY is back. The 33-year-old will look to get back into the team and do what he does best and that is scoring runs for his side. 

Khaleel Ahmed – With the T20 World Cup selection around the corner, Khaleel Ahmed hasn’t put a foot wrong so far. If he can continue his good form, Indian skipper Rohit Sharma can seriously consider his name as an option for India. 

Suggested playing XI No.1 for MI vs DC Dream11 Cricket Fantasy 

R Pant, R Sharma, D Warner, T Varma (C), T David (VC), H Pandya, N Dhir, J Bumrah, K Yadav, A Nortje, and K Ahmed 

Suggested playing XI No.2 for MI vs DC Dream11 Cricket Fantasy 

R Pant, I Kishan, R Sharma, D Warner (C), S Yadav, T Varma, H Pandya (VC), A Patel, Bumrah, Nortje, and K Ahmed 

MI vs DC Risky Captaincy Choices 

Hardik Pandya – The comeback to Mumbai Indians hasn’t worked out well so far for Hardik Pandya. The 30-year-old has seen his bowling disappoint while his batting has been inconsistent. With his back against the wall, Pandya now needs to step up his game. 

Tristan Stubbs- The South African youngster has played a few pivotal knocks already this season. As he gets ready to face his former side, Tristan Stubbs could very well start to feel the weight of expectations. The youngster has formed a key alliance with Rishabh Pant to give Delhi’s middle-order the much-needed steel. 

Players you should avoid 

Piyush Chawla – After a glorious IPL 2023 season, veteran Piyush Chawla has seen his magic with the ball disappear. Mumbai Indians will be disappointed if the 35-year-old keeps getting hit for runs as they lack a quality second spinner. 

Prithvi Shaw – Considering his history with inconsistency, Delhi Capitals will be fretting which Prithvi Shaw will turn up. The 24-year-old has been out of the team for a while now and he knows one good IPL season can propel him back to the top.
