Mumbai Indians is far better then all the teams in this season of IPL and they are on top of the table with 12 points and they lost only 2 matches till now.
Quinton de Kock unbeaten 78 was worth watching and due to his brilliant batting MI achieved the target in the 17th over.
So, very well deserve and there's no big surprise Mumbai Indians are at the top of points table right after KKRvsMI match. After the post match Rohit Sharma reveals that they are ruthless and hungry to ensure the each conceivable points. From my perspective, MI team is very consistent and the mystery of the achievement is their core Indian players.

@onecall123 Mumbai Indian’s have established the winning mentality since many year’s now, and even after winning the title their hunger to win has never gone away, and that’s how it should be in this sport. Furthermore I believe that MI have an excellent chance of making it to the finals, but then again in IPL nothing is guaranteed so let’s wait and see how well they perform in the remaining games.

They are bit different in this season, as early said they only post good performance in the second half of the tournament but this time they did really well in the first half.Apart from the instinct they are having good team in all the perspective so yes they have one more opportunity to win the trophy.

KKR won the toss and they decided to bat first, captaincy change for KKR Eoin Morgan toom the responsibility since DK wants to focus more on his batting and the mystery bowler Narine dropped here. MI made one change in their side Nathan Coulter Nile comes in the place of Pattinson.MI seems much stronger as always.

MI is far better than KKR. Look at the MI bowling lineup. Rahul Chahar, Trent Boult and the specialist Jasprit Bumrah. KKR won the toss and elected to bat first. R. Tripathi and S. Gill are good opener. If they can make a great start then KKR will be won tonight's match. Otherwise I don't think they are able to beat MI. KKR lose the previous match with MI by 49 runs. It was a huge difference. I lost yesterday's bet. I do not know what is my fortune today! Sad Sad

I agree with you. KKR had a good record of playing the playoff.  We have seen in the previous seasons that Kolkata played badly at the first but then then they played in the playoff.
On the other hand, RCB is now ranks third in the points table. But I don't think they will able to go to the next round. SRH or KKR can take the position of RCB.

KKR still in the good position to make it to playoffs because they won 4 out of 8 and only need four more from their remaining 8 matches so they can make changes now and can comeback into the team more stronger.I think KKR needs to send one big hitter in their opening to get their innings going like Narine but need to find someone new since Narine is completely our of form this season.
Right now MI and DC already fix for Play off's and KXIP for exit all other 5 teams in competition for remaining spots for play off's but KKR current form is not good specially batting line up bringing them down very badly they need to think about this other wise SRH RR and RCB all these ready for putting them out of this competiton they have 6 matches remaining with need 3 must wins which is not easy task for them with this batting.
Until now each and every team has chance to enter into playoffs so no need to exclude KXIP from the list, yes they did really bad in their first half of their tournaments but now it seems they are trying to get back into the form and hope it will happen like what happened with MI on a season.

Exactly, Yet all team have the opportunity to play in the playoff . But it will be very difficult for some team. If we talk about KXIP, they played their last match very well. The Big Man "Gayle " is back. When Gayle returned, the team seemed to come back to life. I hope KXIP may be able to play in the playoff if Gayle does not lose his form.

Damn. Crazy stuff. Never knew Romania and Bulgaria played Cricket. Good to see more and more countries joining this awesome sport.
The introduction of T20 cricket is making a positive change in many countries and we are seeing more tournaments being played we will see exceptional talents coming up from these new cricketing nations in the next ten years.

Until now each and every team has chance to enter into playoffs so no need to exclude KXIP from the list, yes they did really bad in their first half of their tournaments but now it seems they are trying to get back into the form and hope it will happen like what happened with MI on a season.
The problem with KXIP is that they take an easily winnable game and make it difficult. They have a good team but they fail to pick the best team according to pitch and condition and they are the only team who lost matches where they could have won easily.

MI has always been the favorite to reach the finals alongside CSK, and with such poor performance of CSK, they have no opponent in this league. Delhi too seems in solid form with a lot of options around the team. It would probably be Delhi that would fight against Mumbai in finals. While kolkata would fight for at least the playoffs, they have had a good record of playing the playoff and I guess they would be successful to achieving the 3rd or 4th position this year too.

Kolkata Knight Riders did well to finish at 148/5. At one point, they were struggling at 61/5 after 11 overs. But Pat Cummins and Eoin Morgan staged a recovery, and they made 87 runs in the next 9 overs. That said, it seems like even that total was not enough to beat the Mumbai Indians. Right now they are cruising along, with Rohit Sharma and Quinton de Kock at the crease.
KKR were struggling to put fighting total on the scoreboard but MI both openers played a good knock and they chased the total just in 16.2 overs. I think now KKR selectors should think twice about their both department. Batsman played shorter innings and were in hurry to get back in the dressing room and bowlers performance was nothing against Rohit Sharma and Quinton de Kock. It was a complete one sided match and KKR bowlers were hardly hitting by both openers from the first over. I don't think KKR got any chance to get back in the game.

I think we are going to see some changes on KKR team from next matches and IMO they should give a chance to Kiwi speed star Lockie Ferguson. Although i am not seeing enough good option on their 2020 squad but giving opportunities to reserve bench players can bring some force to their next matches.

KKR were pretty lucky recently against Punjab which is why them losing in such a bad way against MI doesn't surprise me at all. Looks like changing captaincy didn't help KKR at all. In fact, it seems to have made things worse.

Just one minor news. Marian Gherasim becomes the youngest player to take part in a T20I (14y 16d). He made his debut today, for Romania against Bulgaria. The only pic I could find is from 2017: https://www.facebook.com/CricketRomania/posts/congratulations-to-the-brothers-gherasim-dragos-13-marian-10-and-laurentiu-14-wh/1756278287716253/

Bet on Mumbai today as they mostly win against KKR. The score was quite less to chase and now they need only 8 runs from 4 overs. KKR's second loss against MI this season and this time they failed to even make a decent score batting first.
KKR recent form going against them very badly as they are losing race against some quality teams if they play like this then surely they are going to lost spot for play off's which could be very bad for them in this season even with very good and quality players MI and DC is doing good as they are not going to give any space to any one.

KKR made only 113/5 after 18 overs.This is going to be a low scoring match. MI bowlers bowled really well. Chance of Winning in this is MI but if KKR bowlers can do some miracle then they can win this match as well.
Anything can happen on this bowling pitch.  Today's match is a low scoring match.  However, KKR has scored over 35 runs in the last two overs.  Their final score was 148 for 5.  Pete Cummins has played very well. If KKR bowlers can do a little better then the match will be very competitive.  Taking 149 runs on this wicket will not be so easy for MI.  Although Mumbai Indians have started very well today.  They took 30 runs in the first three overs.

Now I am feeling MI DC and RCB are strong contenders for top spots and for remaining one spot we have to be some good and interesting matches because KKR and SRH both are now trying to improve and other two teams also can give some shocking perfomance in remaining event just KXIP is completely out of competition.
