The Mumbai Indians (MI) will take on the Delhi Capitals (DC) in Match 69 of the 2022 Indian Premier League (IPL) at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. It’s a do-or-die match for Delhi. A win, irrespective of the margin, will confirm their place in the Top 4.

A victory in Saturday’s match will see them finish on 16 points, equal with the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB). However, they will pip Bangalore on the basis of the net run rate. DC, however, cannot afford to lose the game under any circumstances. If they do, it will mark the end of their IPL 2022 campaign as RCB will go through to the playoffs.

Delhi will go into the match against Mumbai with confidence, having defeated the Rajasthan Royals (8 wickets) and the Punjab Kings (17 runs) in their previous two encounters. However, there will be pressure on Rishabh Pant and co. for sure considering what’s at stake.
