IPL 2020 Match 51 - DC vs MI Fantasy Preview

It’s the business stages of the 2020 Indian Premier League (IPL) and so far, we’ve seen some of the best cricketing action on display. In Match 51, we have Delhi Capitals in action and after a flawless start, they’ve slumped to a hat-trick of losses, now having only 7 wins in their 12 games so far. At one point of time in IPL 2020, they were set to be the first team to qualify to the IPL 2020 playoffs.

However, the first team turned out to be Mumbai Indians and this team managed this spot because of their easy and composed chase against Bangalore in the last game. Mumbai has a total of 8 wins in 12 games and they’re clear favourites for this encounter today in Dubai.

Numbers

Head to head in last 5 matches, Delhi leads 3-2.
In the reverse fixture, Mumbai won by 5 wickets.
Tushar Deshpande – wicketless in last 3 IPL games.

Delhi Capitals

With scores of 0 and 6 in his last 2 games at IPL 2020, Shikhar Dhawan is someone I’d like to exclude from my Nostragamus (Get Rs.200 FREE) fantasy team even though he had consecutive centuries prior to that. Another person who has been doing well but would like a much bigger score is captain Shreyas Iyer who scored only 7 in the last game but that was his only single digit score in his last 10 IPL innings this year.

With the ball, Kagiso Rabada is a must have because he’s the tournament leader with the ball, with 23 wickets in 12 games and he’s a super safe pick for today, recently ending a 25-game streak without going wicketless in an IPL game. After 4 failures in IPL 2020, Ajinkya Rahane scored 26 in the last game and that’s signs of him returning to form while Marcus Stoinis is worth picking too, since he was promoted to number #3 in the last game.

Mumbai Indians

He went wicketless in the last game against Delhi but Jasprit Bumrah now has two 3-fers in his last 4 games in IPL 2020 and he’s a must have in your DC vs MI fantasy team today, with 20 scalps in 12 games so far. With the bat, Saurabh Tiwary has been given a go in place of the injured Rohit Sharma and so far, he’s been good and should be picked because he’s not a very popular selection in this team.

Quinton de Kock was brilliant with 3 consecutive fifties recently but with scores of 18 and 6 in the last couple of games and two South African pacers bowling to him in this game, we’re skipping him and we’d rather pick Suryakumar Yadav who took MI home in their last game against RCB. With the ball, Rahul Chahar has 14 wickets in 12 games and is bowling with next level confidence at this point of time.
