What's the story

Sunrisers Hyderabad will host Mumbai Indians in their second encounter of the Indian Premier League 2018 season. After decimating Rajasthan Royals in the opener, SRH will be wary of MI since they would looking to make a comeback after their loss against Chennai. Both teams look solid and it's set to be a cracker of a contest in Hyderabad. Here is our pre-match report.

Fierce battle

SRH and MI have played against each other 10 times in the IPL and both teams have gone on to win five matches each. In Hyderabad though, the hosts have had an edge. Out of five matches, they have won three. There is a thin line to separate the two sides with both being compact and sound. Fans should be expecting a thriller.

A crunch battle
