DC vs MI 16th Match Prediction

Betting Tips

Total 4’s - Over 26.5 (1.77)

The boundaries at the Arun Jaitley Stadium are on the shorter side, which gives the batsmen a good opportunity to score boundaries. The outfield too is pretty quick and we expect to see plenty of boundaries from both sides.

The Mumbai Indians will be searching for their first win of the season as they travel to the Arun Jaitley Stadium to face the Delhi Capitals on Tuesday. The odds being offered by the best betting apps are quite similar for both although MI is the slight favorite.

DC vs MI Team Previews

Delhi Capitals

It has been the worst possible start to IPL 2023 for the Capitals as they have lost each of the 3 matches they have played so far. As a result, they are second-last on the points table. The team will now have to win a few matches soon if they want to climb up the ladder.

The batting has been a big letdown for the team and has been the primary reason for the team’s listless performance. While skipper David Warner has scored 2 half-centuries in 3 innings, he has received little support from the batsmen around him. His strike-rate has been a massive concern, though.

Prithvi Shaw, who was in good form in the domestic circuit before the start of this tournament, hasn’t been able to get going and the same can be said about Sarfaraz Khan. The squad has some big hitters of the cricket ball, including Rilee Rossouw and Manish Pandey and they will be hoping to get going soon. On the positive side, the Capitals have good depth in their batting as Axar Patel, Abhishek Porel, and Rovman Powell can all bat. It has been a similar story with the bowlers too.

Despite having some quality bowlers including Anrich Nortje, Kuldeep Yadav, Chetan Sakariya, and Khaleel Ahmed, they haven’t been able to put a leash on the opposition’s batting. 

Mumbai Indians

5-time Champions, the Mumbai Indians had finished at the bottom of the points table in the last season and have carried forward the terrible form to this season too. They have lost both their opening matches and are just one step above the Capitals.

The opening pair of Ishan Kishan and Rohit Sharma has failed to play a big inning so far and that will be a major cause of concern for the management. However, they did get a few runs under their belt in their last fixture and will be looking to build up on that momentum.

Similarly, Cameron Green and Surya Kumar Yadav, who are known for their hard-hitting skills, have failed spectacularly. IPL betting apps like Parimatch are also offering some very attractive odds on Cameron Green and SKY to be the top batter for this match.

The only bright spot for the Mumbai Indians has been the performance of Tilak Varma, who is the top scorer for the team. Bumrah was the team’s go-to bowler with the new ball as well as during the death and his absence has left a big void.

The team management has splurged quite a bit on Jofra Archer, but he is yet to prove his worth. Jhye Richardson’s injury has further weakened the seam attack and it remains how his replacement, Riley Meredith performs. The Mumbai Indians have managed to get a total of just 5 wickets in the two games, which speaks volumes about the bowlers’ poor form.

DC vs MI Toss Prediction

The team winning the toss will likely opt to bowl first. 

Pitch and Conditions

The pitch at the Arun Jaitley Stadium is very flat and provides a good carry of the ball after it pitches. This will help the batsmen to play their shots and we should see a high-scoring encounter. The average first-inning score here is around 165-170, which can be considered a par score. The pitch does have some green patches which will help the quicker bowlers.

The weather is expected to remain clear with temperatures ranging from 28-33 degrees Celsius.

DC vs MI Betting Tips

Both teams are having an extremely poor run in form, which makes this a difficult game to predict. It should be a close contest but we think DC has a bit more going for them than MI.They have a stronger batting line-up when compared to the Mumbai Indians and the depth in batting is a bonus for them. With the home crowd backing them, we feel that the Capitals have the perfect opportunity to turn things around.
