MI captain was good with the ball in the last match. He has a perfect head-to-head bowling record against the Kolkata Knight Riders.
Vaibhav Arora has been clinical with his swing this season. He could give breakthroughs with the new ball as Mumbai Indians are the second team to get dismissed most times in the powerplay this season. Mitchell Starc is not in good form but he has some good matchups against Rohit Sharma in international.
Suyash Sharma had come off with a good spell against MI last season at this same stadium. He would be a key if he plays.
