Sunrisers Hyderabad
Mumbai Indians
The 8th game of IPL 2024 is set to be an exciting one between Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Mumbai Indians (SRH) at the Rajiv Gandhi Stadium in Hyderabad. MI have won 4 out of their last 5 games against SRH, which might make it seem tough for the home team.
But, in their first games this season, both teams were really close to winningβSunrisers Hyderabad missed winning by only 4 runs in a game where they needed 208, and Mumbai Indians were just 6 runs short in their game. This shows that both teams are doing well and might just turn things around.
Both teams really want their first win this season and, since they both did pretty well in their first games, they probably won't change their line-ups much for this match.
Bumrah has taken 16 wickets against SRH so betting on him to take over 1.5 wickets is a good bet based on historical performance and his great start this season with 3 wickets.
The betting tip is...
Bumrah will take Over 1.5 Wickets

Sunrisers HyderabadMumbai IndiansCaptain Pat Cummins, who got just one wicket last time, will be ready to come back with new plans for his team. T. Natarajan, who took 3 important wickets and shook up the other team's middle order, is expected to play a big role again. Mayank Markande, who also took 2 key wickets and made 2 great catches, will be important too.
In batting, the team is looking to Mayank Agarwal and Abhishek Sharma to start strong again. But a lot of eyes will be on Heinrich Klaasen after his amazing 63 runs off 29 balls, including 8 sixes, and Shahbaz Ahmed's quick scoring.
With such strong performances, SRH is showing they have a well-rounded team ready to make the most of the impact player rule in their next game.
Klaasen, Markram and Tripathi are the key batters.
Predicted Lineup: Mayank Agarwal, Rahul Tripathi, Aiden Markram, Heinrich Klaasen (wk), Abdul Samad, Shahbaz Ahmed, Marco Jansen, Pat Cummins (c), Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mayank Markande, T. Natarajan
In the first match, Captain Hardik Pandya took the lead by starting the bowling for his team. Jasprit Bumrah really stood out by taking 3 wickets and keeping his runs given away really low, making him a key player for the team.
Rohit Sharma and Dewald Brevis got the team off to a great start with their runs, scoring 43 off 29 balls and 46 off 38 balls, respectively. Contributions are also expected from Tilak Varma and Naman Dhir, who previously scored 25 off 19 and 20 off 10. Ishan Kishan and Tim David are looking to do better in this game.
The team looks well-rounded and strong, with players like Gerald Coetzee and Piyush Chawla adding to their bowling strength with their performances last time.

Predicted Lineup: Ishan Kishan, Rohit Sharma, Naman Dhir, Tilak Varma, Hardik Pandya, Tim David, Shams Mulani, Gerald Coetzee, Piyush Chala, Jasprit Bumrah, Luke Wood
Looking at the past games where MI have won 12 times and SRH have won 9, this game is shaping up to be really exciting. Both teams have played really well in their first games, so it seems like it could go either way.
SRH has a strong batting lineup, especially with Klaasen hitting so well, and their bowlers like Natarajan are taking important wickets. But, MI also has a great team, with Bumrah bowling incredibly well and Sharma and Varma doing well with the bat.
With both teams really wanting their first win this season, this game might just swing SRH's way, thanks to their squad depth, home advantage and how well they played in their first game.
