IPL: Mumbai Indians vs Delhi Capitals NostraGamus Prediction, Match Preview and Playing 11

Mumbai Indians and Delhi capitals kick off their IPL season this Sunday, 24^th March at Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai, India at 8PM IST. It will be the second game of the Sunday doubleheader. The stakes are high since out of 22 head to head matches MI and DC have have won 11 each.

MI has a powerful batting line-up capable of out running any opponent.Plus solid hitters in the line-up that are expected to outperform this season. With Jasprit Bumrah, one of the best bowers in Indian cricket, they form a strong unit difficult to defeat. However, MI usually take time to find their rhythm and have their fair share of defeats when the season starts.

DC have a poor record in the IPL games, never making it to the finals. However, under captain Shreyas Iyer the dynamic is sure to change. The team has brought in quiet a bit of young talent including Prithvi Shaw, Rishabh Pant, but with Shikhar Dhawan experience is added to the mix. Nevertheless, this year the talent DC brings to the field will rock the ground.
