Rajasthan Royals are the third team fighting for the remaining one spot but they have completed their 14 matches and have 14 points.

Considering MI’s poor NRR (net run rate) of -0.128 as against RCB’s +0.180, a victory alone will not be enough for Mumbai. They will also hope for GT to beat RCB.

In case it comes to NRR, MI will need to secure a big margin win to hope for a superior NRR than RCB.

“It’s just another game for us. Yes from outside it looks like it’s a big game and we have to wait for other results, et cetera, but we know what we have been doing here at Wankhede in the last four-five games. So we know our strengths. So we will back that and focus on that,” MI batter Suryakumar Yadav said before the match.

For Sunriser Hyderabad, there’s not much to fight for given they are already out of the playoffs race. But Sunrisers want to spoil Mumbai’s party.

“We are here, I would say, to upset the party for Mumbai. We want to win and end (the season) in that fashion (with a win),” head coach Brian Lara said.
