IPL 2020 Kolkata Knight Riders vs Mumbai Indians fantasy 11 prediction: Top Dream11 picks for KKR vs MI


One of the teams to look forward to in this year’s IPL, Kolkata Knight Riders are all set to hit the ground running on 23rd September 2020. They will play their first game against Mumbai Indians at Sheikh Zayed Stadium, Abu Dhabi.
Mumbai Indians, on the other hand, have already played a game in the tournament. They are coming off with a 5-wicket defeat at the hands of Chennai Super Kings on Saturday. They would look to make a strong comeback ahead of the match against KKR.
Mumbai Indians:

Mumbai Indians would be disappointed after losing their opening game against CSK. All the batsmen looked good until they threw their wickets away. Quinton de Kock and Rohit Sharma started off brilliantly before throwing it away. Same happened with Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya. Saurabh Tiwari, who played well in the last game, is likely to continue at number four.
A lot will depend on the all-rounders such as Kieron Pollard and Pandya brother if Mumbai has to win against a star-studded KKR line up. Bumrah, who had an off day against CSK, is expected to come out stronger this time.
Kolkata Knight Riders:

Sunil Narine, Andre Russell, Eoin Morgan and Pat Cummins should be the four overseas picks for KKR. The management expressed their desire to send Russell up the order this time. With Narine and Shubhman Gill opening, followed by Russell, Karthik and Morgan at three, four, five respectively, the batting line up looks promising.
Pat Cummins will be leading the bowling attack. Other seamers such as Prasidh Krishna and Shivam Mavi are the ones to watch out for. The spin attack could prove to be a concern, though. Both Kuldeep and Narine have a big responsibility on their shoulders in the spin-friendly tracks of UAE.
