With both the teams having played 12 games each, Mumbai Indians hold a clear advantage over Sunrisers Hyderabad as they sit above them in the league table with 14 points to their name while SRH has 12 points.

A win for MI will seal their qualification spot, while a victory for SRH will help them cement their place as the 4th team and qualify for playoffs. As the scenario is, if SRH lose, they will have to depend on DC to beat RR in their last match and then win their last league game against RCB to qualify. While Mumbai Indians need a victory from any of their 2 games irrespective of other results to qualify for the play offs.
