Contests between Mumbai Indians and Delhi Capitals, formerly known as Delhi Daredevils, have been a battle of equals with both teams winning 11 and losing 11 matches. Sure, it will be interesting to see which team does better in the head-to-head but there is one more battle worth witnessing — MI's pace ace Jasprit Bumrah v Delhi Capitals opener Shikhar Dhawan.
Mumbai bank on Bumrah
Three-time champions Mumbai Indians may have ended up in fifth position with only six wins in the last edition and failed to qualify for the knockouts, but Bumrah ensured MI did not miss Lasith Malinga. Bumrah's 17 wickets in 14 games at an economy rate of 6.88 enhanced his reputation as a death overs specialist. Bumrah will have a similar role for MI this time as well with Malinga not being available in the initial part of the T20 extravaganza.
