IPL 2023: Match 22, MI vs KKR Match Prediction – Who will win today’s IPL match between Mumbai Indians vs Kolkata Knight Riders?

Five-time champions Mumbai Indians (MI) will host two-time champions Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the 22^nd game of the ongoing 16^th edition of the IPL 2023 on April 16, at the iconic Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. While Mumbai will be coming off a victory from their previous encounter, Kolkata will be eyeing for a win after having suffered a loss in their most recent game.

Mumbai’s batting unit looks a little weak, as Ishan Kishan is still finding his rhythm, and Suryakumar Yadav has not managed to get going in the tournament so far. On the other hand, Kolkata’s batters have been on fire since the past couple of games, but it the bowling unit that has to work hard as the bowlers conceded 200+ runs in both their previous matches.

MI vs KKR Probable Best Performers

Probable best batter

Nitish Rana:

The KKR skipper is in tremendous form, and has been among the runs since the past few games. If KKR chase in the game, his knock will be something to watch out for in the contest as the captain will aim to lead from the front, again.

Probable best bowler

The spinner has proved to be a crucial part of the KKR setup. In the earlier games, he has shown his worth and stood up to the tag of the ‘mystery spinner’ and has been in good form of late.
