PREVIEW FOR DREAM11 FANTASY:
This season, the Mumbai Indians (MI) were unstoppable. The fight between them and the Delhi Capitals (DC) for the top spot on the table was quite a fight. At this point, MI has recorded 6 wins out of 8 games and is once again on the way to making it into the playoffs. This season, the team has provided some inspiring performances and is unbeaten in the last five encounters. In the second game of the doubleheader on Sunday, they will take on Kings XI Punjab.
Despite playing some very good cricket, the Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) have always found themselves in uncomfortable positions. In their last game against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), they let a few easy games slip away and almost gave the fans a heart attack as well. They’ve got two wins from 8 games at this stage. Their chances, however, are still pretty much alive and they need to keep the momentum of winning going. However, against a side like MI that has done very well so far in the tournament, it wouldn’t be easy.
WEATHER REPORT:
Compared to some of the other days on Sunday evening, it will be much hotter. At the start, the temperature will be about 31 degrees Celsius, but as the game progresses, it will drop rapidly to around 27 degrees Celsius.

During the second innings of the game, the pitch here typically slows down considerably. Chasing is therefore a daunting task here, even though the appropriate run rate can seem under control.
