The bowling has been Mumbai's strength. Jasprit Bumrah and Trent Boult have always remained consistent with the new ball and in the death overs. Rahul Chahar will be the player to watch out for in this match. 

Kolkata Knight Riders' batting wasn't challenged in the last game as its openers Shubman Gill and Venkatesh Iyer finished the job. Gill looked brilliant form and will be the key player at the top. 

Varun Chakravarthy and Andre Russell took three wickets each in the last match to completely throw RCB out of the game. Watch out for Sunil Narine in this game.
