🏟️ Wankhede Stadium Pitch Report
Wankhede Stadium is renowned for its batting-friendly pitch, offering good bounce and carry. While pacers may find some early movement, spinners could gain grip later in the innings. Dew is expected to play a role in the second innings, making chasing more favorable. The team winning the toss is likely to opt to bowl first.
🔮 Match Prediction
Given the high-stakes nature of the match, both teams are expected to field their strongest line-ups. MI's superior NRR and home advantage at Wankhede give them a slight edge. However, DC's resilience and depth in batting make them formidable opponents. The team bowling first is likely to have the advantage, especially if dew becomes a factor.
