  1. Rohit Sharma vs Ishant Sharma

Rohit’s form has lost its colour after MI’s inaugural IPL match of 2024. Here in the powerplay, he will have to face Ishant who has a good head-to-head record against the veteran batter.

  1. David Warner vs Jasprit Bumrah

David Warner has a good record against Delhi in IPL. Unless Bumrah sends him pavilion earlier in the powerplay, he is expected to get a big score here. Bumrah never could manage to send him back in the IPL. However in T20I, Warner could not resist the bowler’s pace and fall apart twice (2 runs, 5 balls).
