Rohit Sharma has won the toss and opted to bat first against SRH, while Delhi Capitals are batting first after Virat Kohli won the toss and opted to field for RCB.

The defending champions Mumbai Indians is playing Sunrisers Hyderabad in a do-or-die match. To qualify for the playoffs MI need to win by minimum margin of 170 runs, which is very unlikely. On the other hand SRH have nothing to worry about, as they are already out of the tournament and will be looking to end their 2021 IPL chapter with a win.

Mumbai Indians

The inconsistency is the reason Mumbai Indians have not qualified for the playoffs this year, despite of having a brilliant squad. MI’s key players like, Hardik Pandya, Surya Kumar Yadav and Ishan Kishan have failed to perform when required most by their teams. However, bowling attack is still as good as it was i previous two seasons. This is probably be the last match Mumbai is playing in the IPL 2021. After yesterday’s win over Rajasthan Royals Kolkata Knight Riders have almost booked their place in the playoffs and will play RCB in the first eliminator of the tournament.

Playing XI MI: Rohit Sharma(c), Ishan Kishan(w), Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Kieron Pollard, Krunal Pandya, James Neesham, Nathan Coulter-Nile, Jasprit Bumrah, Piyush Chawla, Trent Boult

Sunrisers Hyderabad

Kane Williamson-led Hyderabad is currently the bottom ranked team on the points table and are out of the playoffs race. SRH have not played their best cricket this season but in their previous match they had beaten RCB in a close contest. With young gun Umran Malik and Bhubaneshwar kumar their bowling looks sorted, however their main concern is batting, not a single player has been making runs for SRH this season, is one of the reason why they are sitting out at bottom of the table.

Playing XI SRH: Jason Roy, Abhishek Sharma, Manish Pandey(c), Priyam Garg, Abdul Samad, Wriddhiman Saha(w), Jason Holder, Rashid Khan, Mohammad Nabi, Umran Malik, Siddarth Kaul

Head-to-head record

Mumbai Indians have a slight edge over Hyderabad with 9 wins in 17 matches.

The match will start at 7:30pm (IST) on Star Sports network and streaming platform Disney Plus Hotstar.

RCB vs DC: Virat Kohli won the toss and invited Delhi to bat first

Meanwhile Royal Challengers Bangalore is playing against previous season runner-up Delhi Capitals, who is also at the top of the points table. Virat Kohli-led RCB have already qualified for playoffs but to finish in top-two, would give them an extra opportunity to play in knock-outs. To finish in top-two RCB need to win by at least 156 runs, which is very unlikely against this giant Delhi side.

Delhi Capitals are currently at the top of the table, and will remain at the top, irrespective of the result.

Samajwadi Party (SP) chief Akhilesh Yadav, submitted his nomination for the Kannauj Lok Sabha constituency ahead of tomorrow’s second round of voting. In front of Ram Gopal Yadav and other party leaders, the chief of the SP, who had previously contested the seat in 2000, 2004 and 2009, submitted the nomination.

Speaking with media, Ram Gopal Yadav said that SP would win the seat by a huge margin. The BJP candidate might lose his deposit in the seat, he said.

The Samajwadi Party has completely reversed its earlier plan to field former Mainpuri MP Tej Pratap Singh Yadav as their candidate, which is a significant political development.

Earlier, Akhilesh Yadav told reporters, people will find out when the nomination takes place, in reference to the speculations that he will contest for the seat. The historic victory of Kannauj is the subject of inquiry.

The former chief minister continued, the people have decided that the India bloc is coming as the future and the BJP will be history in this election.

Notably, elections for the Kannauj seat are scheduled for May 13, which would intensify the political drama that is now playing out in Uttar Pradesh. Previously regarded as the Samajwadi Party’s stronghold, the seat was lost by the party in the 2019 election when Subrat Pathak of the BJP won with a resounding victory.

The candidates competing for the following Uttar Pradesh seats will find out their destiny in the second round of voting, which is scheduled for tomorrow, Amroha, Meerut, Mathura, Baghpat, Aligarh, Ghaziabad, Gautam Buddh Nagar, and Bulandshahar.

Notably, two Bollywood celebrities running as BJP candidates in the second round are Hema Malini from Mathura and Arun Govil from Meerut. There are 91 contestants from UP competing in the second phase.

The seats in Gautam Buddha Nagar and Mathura are up for grabs, with a maximum of 15 applicants per seat. In Bulandshahr, six candidates are vying for the presidency. There are twelve contenders running in Amroha, eight in Meerut, seven in Baghpat, and fourteen in Ghaziabad and Aligarh.
