Delhi Capitals
Mumbai Indians
Welcome to our prediction for Match 43 of IPL 2024, where Delhi Capitals (DC) will face Mumbai Indians (MI) at the Arun Jaitley Stadium.
This season, both teams are struggling with similar records; DC and MI are placed 7th and 8th, respectively, each securing 3 wins and suffering 5 losses in eight games. Their recent performance also mirrors this inconsistency; DC won 2 of their last 5 matches, while MI managed 3 wins.
Looking at their past encounters, MI has a slight edge with 19 wins compared to DC's 15. When it comes to batting first, MI has dominated with 12 wins, whereas DC has a better track record chasing, with 10 victories against MI’s 7.
Earlier this season, in a high-scoring game, MI set DC a target of 234/5. DC responded strongly, scoring over 200, but still lost by 29 runs. A very critical match as both teams aim to climb the table.
Bumrah is likely to take over 1.5 wickets against DC, as his history of three 3-wicket hauls and 25 wickets against them combines effectively with his fine form this season.
The betting tip is...
Bumrah to take over 1.5 wickets

Delhi CapitalsMumbai IndiansCaptain Rishabh Pant, leading with 254 runs in 8 matches at a strike rate of 150.29, continues to be a crucial player. Pant also boasts 373 career runs against MI. Following him, Stubbs, Shaw, and Warner have made contributions with 199, 174, and 167 runs, respectively. Notably, Shaw has played only 6 matches, and Warner missed one.
Mitchell Marsh, another key player, has been ruled out for the season, adding pressure on the rest of the lineup. However, Jake Fraser-McGurk has emerged as a promising talent, scoring 140 runs in just 3 matches at a mammoth strike rate of 222.22.
On the bowling front, despite Anrich Nortje's expensive spells, he has secured 9 wickets against MI in the past, with Axar Patel taking 8. Kuldeep Yadav and Khaleel Ahmed are in top form, each taking 10 wickets, although Kuldeep has played only 5 matches. For DC to enhance their chances of victory, their batting lineup needs to match their strong bowling performance.
Pant, Khaleel, and Fraser-McGurk are the in-form batters.
Predicted Lineup: Warner, Fraser-McGurk, Porel, Pant (c & wk), Stubbs, Axar, Lalit, Kuldeep, Nortje, Mukesh, Khaleel.
Rohit Sharma leads the team with 303 runs in 8 matches this season and has a historical tally of 841 runs against Delhi. Following closely is Tilak Varma, who has scored 273 runs at a strike rate of 151.66, showcasing his ability to accelerate innings effectively.
Ishan Kishan also has a noteworthy record against Delhi, accumulating 465 runs in previous encounters. Additionally, power hitters like Suryakumar Yadav, Tim David, and Hardik Pandya can make significant impacts with their aggressive batting style.
On the bowling front, Jasprit Bumrah continues to excel, leading this season's wicket-takers with 13 dismissals and 25 lifetime wickets against Delhi. Gerald Coetzee, despite a high economy rate of over 10, competes closely with 12 wickets in 8 matches. For MI to secure a win, other bowlers must step up, as many have underperformed in recent matches.
Rohit, Tilak and Bumrah are the in-form players.
Predicted Lineup: Rohit, Kishan (wk), Suryakumar, Tilak, Hardik (c), David, Wadhera, Nabi, Coetzee, Chawla, Bumrah.
DC vs MI at the Arun Jaitley Stadium promises to be tightly contested. Examining past performances and current form, MI appears to have a slight edge in terms of batting prowess and individual performances.
Historically, MI leads DC with more wins in head-to-head encounters. However, venue statistics show a narrow margin with DC winning 6 times at this ground compared to MI's 5 wins.
Given the high stakes and both teams' erratic season form, the prediction leans towards a Mumbai Indians victory, primarily due to their slightly superior batting lineup and Bumrah's impactful bowling against DC.
