Mumbai Indians (MI) will go up against Delhi Capitals (DC) in the 46th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 on Saturday afternoon at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium. The two sides come into this game on the back of contrasting results, though. While MI beat Punjab Kings (PBKS) with six wickets to spare, DC lost to Kolkata Knightꦦ Riders (KKR) by three wick𝕴ets with ten balls remaining in their innings.

DC are placed second in the points table, have already qualified for the pla🐟yoffs, with eight wins from eleven ma🅷tches. MI, meanwhile, lie sixth, with five wins from eleven games. They need to win to keep their playoffs hopes alive.

However, the issue for both teams💫 will be on their batters to show a better sense of application.

Head-to-Head record:

Pla💜yed: 29 | MI won: 16 | DC won🧔: 13 | No result: 0

Pitch report:

The pitch in Sharjah has been a bit more on the slower side this year. In the first match at Sharjah, Chennai Super Kings (CSK) comfortably chased down 156. However, since then, teams have struggled to score at the venue – with 139 being the highest score in the last six innings.

The team which would accept the challenge of sco🔴ring runs on a di๊fficult pitch will win.
