Weakness

Delhi Capitals:

• The form of Rishab Pant and Prithvi Shaw is a huge worry.

Mumbai Indians:

• The spin department of Mumbai looks weak compared to the rest of the teams in IPL 2020.
• If by chance Bumrah and Boult get hit, then they are a very weak bowling unit as it was clearly visible from the last match against SRH where they failed to take a wicket in the absence of these two.
