Cricket News: Mumbai Indians to take on Kings XI Punjab in IPL 2019

Mumbai Indians will host Kings XI Punjab at Wankhede Stadium today. KXIP come to the match with three consecutive wins in their home ground, while Mumbai Indians defeated Sunrisers Hyderabad in their previous encounter. Mumbai Indians’ pacer Alzzari Joseph took six for 12--the best bowling figures in IPL history. Rohit Sharma will look to lead by example at the top of the batting order along with Quinton de Kock after failing to put on a quality show so far. While KXIP are placed at the third spot with four wins from six games, MI are fifth with three wins from five games. With the league closing in on the middle stage, each team will now look to grab the advantage and surge forward.
