Tonight's Indian Premier League game at the Wankhede Stadium could be about Mumbai Indians' bowling versus Kings XI Punjab's batting. Both teams go into the match in a positive frame of mind after Punjab beat Sunrisers Hyderabad in Mohali on Monday while MI trounced Sunrisers Hyderabad in Hyderabad on Saturday.

Joseph impressive

Having the world's best death bowler in the form of Jasprit Bumrah (five wickets in as many games) in the team along with young pacer Alzarri Joseph, who impressed with his 6 for 12 for a match-winning IPL debut and left-arm pacer Jason Behrendorff in the attack, MI's opponents have to be cautious in those 12 overs. However, to counter this attack, KXIP have two technically sound batsmen in their armory — KL Rahul (217 runs in six games) and Mayank Agarwal (184 in six). If they play to potential, it will make it easier for local boy Sarfaraz Khan (165 in six games) to play his natural game as well as innovative shots to build the total.
