IPL MATCH PREDICTION: Mumbai Indians vs Delhi Capitals, match 69
The Mumbai Indians will face the Delhi Capitals in the penultimate game of the IPL 2022 league stage at the Wankhede Stadium. The Rohit Sharma-led side has nothing to lose because they have already been eliminated from the playoff battle, and they will try to employ the bench options in the future. They've been playing some nice cricket recently and will be hoping to cap off a frustrating season with a win.
On the other side, this is a crucial game for the Delhi Capitals, who are still in contention to enter the playoffs. Without Prithvi Shaw, the Rishabh Pant-led team had a nice win against Punjab Kings in their previous match, and a win in the forthcoming match will be enough to put them ahead of RCB on the net run rate. If he is fit, Shaw is anticipated to replace Sarfaraz Khan in the starting XI.
