Arjun Tendulkar to debut for MI?
For the unversed, Arjun is with MI since the last two years but is yet to play his first game. In MI’s first game of the IPL 2023 season against RCB, Arjun had a slight niggle in the wrist which ruled him out of the contest. In the second game, the Southpaw was declared fit but he did not get a chance to play, with CSK romping home by eight wickets.
With MI losing both games so far, skipper Rohit Sharma might be tempted to ring in the changes. Arjun provides a left-hand bowling option as well will give depth to the batting line-up lower down the order.
IPL 2023: Injuries haunt Delhi Capitals, Khaleel Ahmed ruled out against MI
Speaking about the Capitals, they have their fair share of injuries as well as Khaleel Ahmed is ruled out of the match against MI owing to injury.

The Caribbean star is expected to play against MI, while Chetan Sakariya will likely replace Ahmed. Capitals and Mumbai Indians are the only teams in IPL 2023 to have not registered a win. DC are placed last at the points table with three loses, while MI are placed ninth with two defeats.
