IPL 2017 Final: 5 reasons why Rising Pune Supergiant can beat Mumbai Indians

#3 Statistically, RPS have the best bowling unit this season

RPS have bagged 100 wickets till now

The Supergiant's started miserably with the ball this year but their win against RCB at the Chinnaswamy while bowling second changed their fortunes in the bowling department. Pune currently concede less than an over on average with the total average of all the teams combined being 8.41. RPS concede at a rate of 7.36 during the power play, 7.12 during the overs 8-15 and at a rate of 8.01 during the final five.

It is their middle over bowling which sets them apart from Mumbai Indians. They have been the best outfit in containing sides between overs 8 to 15 and have also picked up 40 wickets in that phase.

In the three games against Mumbai, Pune let MI score at just a rate of 7.5 in the middle overs which set them on course for a brilliant end to their bowling courtesy of the good form of Jaydev Unadkat.

Pune's strength has become their bowling this season and with the side already picking up 100 wickets. It will be their varied attack which will help them to bring the cup home.
