Two robust sides-- Mumbai Indians (MI) and Delhi Capitals (DC) are all set to contest for a place in the final when they lock horns in the first Qualifier of the on-going IPL 2020. The top two sides in the points table have had different tales this season. The Mumbai side, vying for its fifth IPL title, has been ruthless and dominant in their league-stage journey.

In 14 games, MI managed to pocket nine games, finishing top of the pile with 18 points. They had a glaring opportunity to reach to 20-point mark by winning their last league-stage fixture against SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH). However, to their disappointment, the MI squad -- in absence of Trent Boult and Jasprit Bumrah -- failed to mount any pressure on the David Warner-led side as they suffered a thumping 10-wicket defeat. Skipper Rohit Sharma even labelled the loss as their 'worst performance of this season'.
Their league-stage voyage might've ended on a woeful note but no one can raise a finger to question the talent which MI possess. With several match-winners in their squad, the four-time champions are favourites to book their place in yet another final. Even during Rohit's absence from the squad, the MI batting unit had delivered impressive performances.

Led by two uncapped players -- Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Yadav -- MI have fared well in the batting department. Kishan (428 runs) and Suryakumar (410) will be hoping to rise to the occasion and add another feather in their side's illustrious cap.
