KXIP vs MI Dream11 Key Players best picks: Red-hot KL Rahul a no-brainer, Mayank and Kishan could erupt, Pollard and Pooran can be game-changers

KXIP vs MI Dream11 Key Players: Mumbai Indians’ inconsistent start to the season came as a no-surprise, after all, the four-time champions are known for hitting their top-level only at a later stage in the competition.

For Rohit Sharma’s team were close winning the last game against Royal Challengers Bangalore, levelling the match, and forcing a super-over, despite Kohli’s men putting a daunting 201 on board. That said, Ishaan Kishan’s superb 99 runs innings was a blessing. He is likely to hold onto his place in the playing 11. Punjab, on the other hand, are also in the same position, losing twice in the first three games.

Smart Picks:

• Ishaan Kishan: Came in as a substitute for the injured Tiwary, but he was anything but a stooge as he played a superb innings, hitting all the bowlers all around the park. He can be a game-changer.
• Kieron Pollard: Scored his 1st IPL 50 in more than two years, but that’s not a good reflection of his true impact on this team, as most of the times, he bats at the lower order, as a pinch-hitter.
