Sunrisers Hyderabad is gearing up to host Mumbai Indians in their second match of IPL 2024 at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium in Hyderabad. Both teams are still seeking their first points in the tournament after suffering defeats in their opening matches in the final over. Ahead of the epic SRH vs MI clash, let us take a look at the predictions.
In their previous encounter against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) on March 23, SRH fell short as KKR’s Harshit Rana successfully defended 12 runs in the last over. Despite aggressive batting performances from Shahbaz Ahmed and Heinrich Klaasen, Rana’s dismissal of both players secured a narrow 4-run victory for KKR.
On the other hand, Mumbai Indians, led by Hardik Pandya, faced a defeat against Gujarat Titans (GT) in their opening match. Pandya’s team, needing 19 runs to win in the final over against GT, ultimately fell short. Despite Pandya’s efforts to score 10 runs off the first two balls, Mumbai lost two quick wickets, including Pandya’s own dismissal, resulting in a 6-run loss for the team.
SRH vs MI Prediction:
According to Parimatch, the odds are tilted towards the visiting side, Mumbai Indians at 1.76 while Sunrisers Hyderabad at 2.07. The Mumbai Indians have an outstanding record against the Sunrisers Hyderabad, having won the past four out of five games between the two teams. They have a formidable batting lineup and will enjoy their chances against the Sunrisers. The Sunrisers bowled terribly in the last game, adding to their difficulties.
