MI vs KKR Dream11 Prediction Today | Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing XI, Pitch Report – IPL 2025, 12th Match

Match Preview

Much like the previous season, the Mumbai Indians have struggled this year as well. The team has lost both of its games so far and has one of the worst NRR among all teams. As they return to their home turf, the Mumbai Indians will look to turn a new page and earn two important points.
On the other hand, the defending champions have been a bit inconsistent. Nevertheless, the team is coming into this contest on the back of a convincing win over the Rajasthan Royals and will hope to play with the same intensity here.

Injuries & Illnesses

There are no new injuries to report from either side. Sunil Narine, who missed KKR’s previous match, is likely to be available for selection in this game.

Pitch Report & Weather Conditions

The Wankhede stadium usually offers flat surfaces with excellent pace and bounce. We can expect plenty of runs in this match and that’s why we recommend picking plenty of batsmen in your Dream11 side. The spinners can expect some help in the latter half of the innings but overall, the batsmen will enjoy the upper hand.

The weather will be warm and humid with temperatures around 30 degrees. The humidity will cause some dew during the second half and the bowlers may find it difficult to grip the ball.

MI vs KKR Dream11 Top Picks

Wicketkeeper

Quinton de Kock is our first choice here. Ryan Rickleton has had a quiet season thus far but given his ability to play the big shots, including him in the team will be a good idea.

Batters

Ajinkya Rahane has been pretty consistent in the IPL and is an automatic inclusion for any team. Tilak Varma and Suryakumar Yadav are clean strikers of the ball and can score runs at a brisk pace.

All Rounders

Quality all-rounders are always a welcome addition for any side and there are plenty to choose from in this contest. Hardik Pandya, Sunil Narine, and Andre Russell are our top picks.

Bowlers

Varun Chakravarthy is likely to be pretty effective on this surface. In the seam department, Trent Boult is the most experienced player and will be our primary recommendation.

MI vs KKR Captain and Vice-Captain Choices

Captain

Quinton de Kock is one of the most aggressive batsmen in the league and he showcased his talent in the previous match. He has the ability to clear the boundary with ease and if he gets going, de Kock could collect plenty of points.

Vice-Captain

Hardik Pandya is our pick for this post. He is a versatile player who can contribute with the bat and the ball. He is also very sharp on the field.

MI vs KKR Team Expert Advice

If the matches played here last season are anything to go by, we can expect a run-fest and the contest will be dominated by the batsmen. We have therefore tried to pick as many quality batsmen as possible for our team.

The bowling unit is slightly lean with emphasis on picking up good spinners who can exploit the relatively dry surface.
