Mumbai Indians
Rohit Sharma and Ryan Rickelton, the two openers didn't get runs against GT but are expected to hold their spot as these are just the early days. Suryakumar Yadav and Tilak Varma were good, and the stable warriors from the last match, almost certain to maintain spot in the middle order. Captain Hardik Pandya holds a spot without any doubt. Deepak Chahar, Trent Boult, and Mujeeb Ur Rahman, all picked a wicket each and would continue their attack. Mitchell Santner and Satyanarayana Raju should also be getting further chances to prove themselves, especially with KKR batters seen struggling a bit against spin.

Kolkata Knight Riders
The defending champions are coming to Mumbai after a big win. So, no major changes are expected to be seen. Quinton de Kock should be opening with Sunil Narine, and in case the West Indies superstar is ill, Moeen Ali might retain his spot. Captain Ajinkya Rahane will obviously be retaining his spot. Venkatesh Iyer didn't get to bat in the last game, and in all likelihood will be featuring yet again in the middle order, along with the star-studded line-up of Rinku Singh, Andre Russell, and Ramandeep Singh. Spencer Johnson has been terrible so far, and needs to be replaced, as nothing with his bowling seems right, so Anrich Nortje should be introduced. Vaibhav Arora and Harshit Rana the two ace pacers of the squad will be staying for sure. Varun Chakaravarthy, the mystery spinner will be a big hope for them.
