MI vs DC Pitch Report: Could Suryakumar Yadav be the key to Mumbai's first victory? Head-to-head statistics, other details

The Delhi Capitals (DC) and Mumbai Indians (MI) will clash with each other on April 7 at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. The first game of the day is scheduled to begin at 3:30 pm.

Given that MI has not won in this IPL season and that Suryakumar Yadav is returning after an extended injury, today's game will be crucial for the team.

Mumbai has so far participated in three games and has lost each one. The team's captain, Hardik Pandya, has been under scrutiny for his decisions made on the field since taking over for Rohit Sharma in the past.


Conversely, Delhi defeated Chennai Super Kings (CSK) on March 31 to record their first victory. Right now, these two clubs—MI at number 10 and DC at number 9—are at the bottom of the standings.

Head-to-head statistics:

There have been 33 IPL matchups between the two teams thus far. Delhi Capitals has won 15 times, whereas Mumbai Indians have won 18 games.

MI vs DC pitch report:

High scores are expected at Wankhede Stadium because of the pitch's favorable characteristics, the new surface, and the short boundaries. The victorious team may decide to bowl first.

Weather update:

On April 7, there won't be any clouds in the Mumbai sky. Nonetheless, the temperature will hover around 34 to 31 degrees Celsius, and the humidity will rise from 24% at 3 p.m. to 40% at night.
