KKR vs MI Dream11 Prediction Today Match: Captain choices:

  • Suryakumar Yadav: Suryakumar Yadav’s form has been one of the very few positives in an otherwise forgettable season for MI. He has scored 334 runs in 9 games so far and scored a match-winning unbeaten century in the last game against Sunrisers Hyderabad.

Top Picks for KKR vs MI Fantasy Cricket Tips:

  • Rohit Sharma: In 12 games, Rohit Sharma has scored 330 runs. The former MI captain has not really lived up to the expectation this season and will be eyeing a big score at a venue where he has played some memorable knocks including his first IPL century and the 264-run knock against Sri Lanka in an ODI.
  • Phil Salt: Phil Salt is arguably the best overseas batsman this season. The England star has performed consistently with the bat. He has scored 429 runs so far with the help of 4 fifties.

Budget Picks for KKR vs MI Fantasy Cricket Tips:

  • Harshit Rana: Harshit Rana has impressed one and all with his ability to provide crucial breakthroughs at any stage of the game. He has picked up 14 wickets so far.
  • Nuwan Thushara: The last time MI faced KKR, Nuwan Thushara blew the latter’s top order away with three wickets in the powerplay. The Sri Lankan would be eyeing a similar performance in the upcoming game.
