Mumbai Indians will be looking to prolong their stay at the top of the table during their IPL 2020 clash against Kolkata Knight Riders.
Mumbai Indians and Kolkata Knight Riders will clash in the 32nd match of IPL-2020 at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi on Friday (October 16). This will be the 27th encounter between the two sides, with Mumbai Indians holding a 20-6 head-to-head advantage from their previously clashes against each other. Going into the match, MI will be looking to overtake Delhi Capitals as the league leaders and maintain their run of good form.
Speaking about Kolkata Knight Riders, Dinesh Karthik's side has been on and off form lately and will be looking to bounce back quickly with a win after their emphatic loss against RCB in the tournament last time. While MI have lost just two matches in their opening seven games of IPL 2020, KKR has lost three.
Rohit Sharma's side is currently thriving on confidence and has been put up some excellent allrounder performances in the league so far. It will take a huge performance from the Men In Purple to end that winning streak!
Team News
KKR have had a pretty set side so far, however, with the Sunil Narine situation still not resolved skipper Karthik might opt to leave the Windies allrounder out of the squad for the second game running.

Mumbai Indians - Quinton de Kock (WK), Rohit Sharma (C), Suryakumar Yadav, Ishan Kishan, Hardik Pandya, Kieron Pollard, Krunal Pandya, James Pattinson, Rahul Chahar, Jasprit Bumrah and Trent Boult.
