MI vs KXIP Dream11 Team Prediction and Tips

Captain Choices 

K Rahul- A player you cannot ignore to keep your fantasy team points as near to other competitors. In 8 matches, he has scored 448 runs and is currently the orange-cap holder. With a good overall track record in the international circuit, he is the best pick for the MI vs KXIP today match prediction.

M Agarwal- A perfect choice for the captain pick if you want a player with an amazing consistency in all the three formats of the game. In 8 matches, he has scored 382 runs and is in the second position in the leading run-scorers of the tournament. He had a below-par average in the IPL, but is currently averaging over 40 in this IPL and turns out be a good pick for your fantasy team.

Q Kock- A terrific wicket-keeper batsman from South Africa is back in form for the MI team. In the last 2 matches, he has scored a half-century and has lifted the team’s performance to another level. He is surely a good captain pick for your fantasy team given his experience and abilities in the T20 format. In 8 matches, he has scored 269 runs and is looking in good touch.

Vice-captain Choices

J Bumrah- One of the most lethal bowlers in the T20 format around the world is a vice-captain pick according to our MI vs KXIP Dream 11 prediction.
