KXIP vs MI Today Match Prediction Kings XI Punjab vs Mumbai Indians Who will win Today 1 October

KXIP vs MI today match prediction: Mumbai Indians are coming at the back of an extraordinary match and arguably one of the greatest matches in IPL history ever. They fought hard till the last minute against RCB and couldn’t go past the brilliance of RCB boys. That match was nothing but a cliffhanger by all means. Mumbai Indians will be pumped up to get back to winning ways and maintain the winning consistency.

Kings XI Punjab on the other hand were involved in an epic run chase that saw Sanju Samson and Rahul Tewatia play blinders. Rahul Tewatia in particular played once in a lifetime knock which mightn’t even happen ever again. KL Rahul need to manage his fast bowlers in a better way as he don’t have a legit bowler who has a reputation of bowling at death. They have Chris Jordan but they dropped him after one bad game and paid the price for it in their previous game at Sharjah.

KXIP vs MI dream11 prediction for today’s match

After having played 3 games each, there are some glaring weakness in both the teams and in today IPL match prediction, let us bring out the strengths and weaknesses of both the teams
Strengths
Kings XI Punjab (KXIP)
They have 2 openers who are in supreme form and are reluctant to get out without giving their team dashing starts. They are sitting handsomely at the first and second spot for leading run-getters in this IPL. Their spin bowling department led by the young gun in Ravi Bishnoi has been top notch.
Mumbai Indians (MI)
The miraculous innings from Ishan Kishan in the previous game has made the team, a much stronger one with Kieron Pollard showing he has still got that ruthless hunger in him. It’s only a matter of time that Quinton de Kock hits his peak form as he is too good a player to miss out on more than 3 games.
Weaknesses
Kings XI Punjab (KXIP)
Death bowling. Its as simple as that. They have one of the worst pair of death bowlers in this season. Drafting Chris Jordan into the playing XI might just solve the issue to some extent. The form of Glenn Maxwell is a worrying sign as a rare failure from openers might put the middle order in the spot of bother.
Mumbai Indians (Mi)
The consistency of Rohit Sharma has once again come to fore as after one good game, the captain has slumped and flopped in a big run chase. The form of Hardik Pandya with the bat is another area which MI will be worried about. Their overseas pacer James Pattinson and Trent Boult haven’t been at their best and they might bring in Nathan Coulter-Nile in place of either of the overseas fast bowlers who is a much experienced and a canny customer as far as T20s is concerned.
Form guide (last 5 games)
KXIP: LWLWL
MI: LWLWW
Records at Abu Dhabi (T20 format)
KXIP: 2 wins from 2 games
MI: 1 win and 2 loss from 3 games
