IPL 2016: Predicted playoff line up

4th – Mumbai Indians

Rohit Sharma is leading a resurgent Mumbai Indians

Remaining fixtures –

Opponent	Venue
Sunrisers Hyderabad	Vizag
Royal Challengers Bangalore	Bangalore
Kings XI Punjab	Vizag
Delhi Daredevils	Vizag
Gujarat Lions	Rajkot

The Mumbai Indians move to their adopted home, Vizag, in high spirits as they have won three on the bounce. Their match winners in chief, Rohit and Pollard, have shown glimpses of form and the supporting cast of Parthiv, Buttler, Rayadu, Harbhajan have done well.

The pace attack of McClenaghan, Southee and Bumrah have sparkled too, and that's not to forget the Pandya brothers. They look like a complete unit and might go all the way to the final. Expect them to do it the hard way though, picking up three wins in their next five games. The losses could potentially come against RCB in Bangalore and The Lions in Rajkot.

FINAL POINT TALLY – 16

Expect the Sunrisers Hyderabad to fail to qualify for the playoffs because of their weak batting order. Captain Warner has been incredibly impressive, his form will be key for the team. If he manages to bat this way for the entire season, we might be in for a surprise.
