IPL 2017 KKR vs MI: MI Team Looks Strong But There Are Gaps

#IPL #IPL 2017

Going into #IPL 2017 as one of the favourites, two-time #IPL #Champions Mumbai Indians (#MI) did not get off to the most auspicious start as they lost their first match of the season against Rising Pune Supergiants (#RPS) by seven wickets. The bowlers leaked plenty of runs and the fielding wasn't up to the mark as Steve Smith led Pune to a huge victory. 

Mumbai, now take on two-time IPL champions, Kolkata Knight Riders (#KKR) at the historic #Wankhede today. At least three changes are expected in the MI XI from their last match as their batsman, #AmbatiRayudu, is ruled out of the match with a grade 1 groin tear and the team is set to bring back two of their seasoned campaigners, #HarbhajanSingh and #LasithMalinga. 

Probable playing XI for Mumbai Indians:

#JosButtler to open the batting with #ParthivPatel.

#RohitSharma, who was out of action since October, returned to action last week when Mumbai Indians took on RPS.  

#NitishRana followed by #AllRounders #HardikPandya and #KrunalPandya have a huge role to play. 

#KieronPollard has been a proven match-winner for Mumbai Indians over the last few years. 

Bowling will be led by #MitchellMcClenaghan, #HarbhajanSingh and #LasithMalinga. #JaspreetBumrah has a huge role to play for his franchise this season. Bumrah and Malinga bowling in tandem in the death will make life difficult for the opposition batsmen.
