Pitch Report: Wankhade is usually a batting paradise venue. It won’t be different for this game. The ball will come nicely on the bat. However, bowlers will also get a chance to have their say. The new ball will swing and there is enough bounce in the track for bowlers to use. Overall a batting track though.
Weather: It will be a clear day most likely but clouds will loom heavily too. The temperature will be around 28–29 degrees Celsius. It will be very humid which means that there will be dew.
Dependable Trio for D3
Corey Anderson (OG — Batter 4) (Mumbai): Suryakumar Yadav will most likely be Batter 4 for Mumbai and we all know what he is capable of. He has regained his form and with Wankhade a relatively easier wicket to bat on, he could score big.
Faf du Plessis (Bangalore) [Captain]: The kind of form Faf is in right now, one just can’t leave him out. He scores runs almost every match and would enjoy playing at Wankhade. Protea batters love the bouncy tracks, so it could be du Plessis’ night with the bat in Mumbai. He would be our captain pick for this game.
Cameron Green (Mumbai): Green takes wickets with the ball and scores decently with the bat as well. He would, without a doubt, be a safe pick. He will bowl in the important stages of the game and would most likely walk to bat at number three, so could fetch a lot of points in this game.
