MI vs SRH Toss Update: Mumbai Indians win the toss and will bowl first

Hardik Pandya has opted to bowl first because of the dew factor. This is a straightforward call for the venue one would think, but, interestingly, since the start of IPL 2024, teams batting first have won five of the nine games here.

Will Pat Cummins be happy? Let’s wait and see but for now it is Jasprit Bumrah and Trent Boult vs Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma. Popcorn time!

Mumbai Indians and Sunrisers Hyderabad are both unchanged.

Wankhede Pitch Report

The news fromthe middle is that pitch has a layer of grass with some underlying moisture, as it was watered in the morning and feels slightly damp. Square boundaries measure 60m and 67m, with the straight boundary at 73m.

Expect consistent bounce, some early help for fast bowlers with the new ball, and possible spin from one dry end. Overall, it’s a good surface for batting, and teams are likely to prefer chasing. Let’s wait for the toss update that is coming soon!

Dale Steyn predicts 300 in MI vs SRH IPL 2025 Match Today

The better bowling team will win here according to Harbhajan Singh on the JioHotStar app. This is a batting paradise and there’s no doubting a high-scoring game with two dynamic batting units up against each other. But, Dale Steyn has made a huge prediction. He is predicting a 300+ total today at the Wankhede. WOW! That’s some prediction to live up to. Gear up, Head and Abhishek! Or should I say Rohit and Rickelton?

If Rohit Sharma can hit the right note, this is as destructive a batting unit as any goes Michael Clarke. That’s true. The only thing is that Rohit hasn’t hit that switch quite a lot in the IPL in the last decade. Look at his numbers from 2018 in the IPL. Those are quite underwhelming and I’m sure he knows it too.

Boult’s Powerplay Challenge

Early breakthroughs will be vital to choke SRH’s aggressive top order—but Boult’s usually lethal new‑ball form has been unusually subdued this season. He’s grabbed just two wickets in the first six overs. Incidentally, both have come at this venue. Today, Boult’ll need to rediscover his powerplay bowling to nip those edges early if MI are to keep SRH’s openers in check.

Abhishek Sharma returns to Wankhede

Abhishek Sharma arrives fresh off the highest individual IPL score by an Indian and he’s shown he loves batting at the Wankhede—his 135‑off‑54 against England in February came here—so keep your eyes out for him. His ability to accelerate from ball one makes him a clear headache for MI, but they do have two gun bowlers in Boult and Jasprit Bumrah. Will MI give the new ball to Bumrah today to tackle Head and Abhishek?

Let’s wait until the toss. Meanwhile, take a crack at our stat preview for the game below.
