Mumbai Indians:

MI have recovered well in the season with standout contributions from Suryakumar Yadav and Tilak Varma. Bumrah continues to be their main weapon with the ball, while the presence of Rohit Sharma and Hardik Pandya provides balance and experience. Their recent victory over RCB was built on solid batting and tight bowling in the final overs.
