Delhi Capitals (DC) are set to lock horns against Mumbai Indians (MI) at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Tuesday as the action continues in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021. In what will be the replay of last year’s final, MI and DC head into the much-awaited clash with two wins of their three matches played so far and will be looking to bag their third win of the T20 tournament.
DC would be wary of their record against Mumbai Indians. In IPL 2020, it was all Mumbai Indians when the two sides met. With a head-to-head record of 16-12 favouring Mumbai Indians, the defending champions head into the match as hot favourites. MI had defeated DC four times in IPL 2020 including the final.
While Delhi come into the clash after a win against Punjab Kings, Mumbai Indians thumped Delhi Capitals in another tactical masterclass in Chepauk. Both DC and MI are in good form and have arguably the two strongest squads in IPL 2021.
