The stage is set for a thrilling clash between Mumbai Indians and Delhi Capitals in the 63rd match of the Indian Premier League. With playoff spots on the line, both teams will be looking to give it their all. Mumbai Indians’ captain Hardik Pandya and Delhi Capitals’ captain Axar Patel will be leading their teams into battle.
Top Run-Scorers in the Season So Far
The current top 5 run-scorers in the league are:
- Sai Sudarshan (GT) – 617 runs
- Shubman Gill (GT) – 601 runs
- Yashasvi Jaiswal (RR) – 559 runs
- Suryakumar Yadav (MI) – 510 runs
- Faf du Plessis (RCB) – 505 runs
Suryakumar Yadav has a chance to reclaim the Orange Cap, but he’ll need to score a century to make it happen.
In the same match, Trent Boult will be looking to get his hands on the Purple Cap. He needs 4 wickets in the match against Delhi Capitals to take the top spot.
Top Wicket-Takers in the Season So Far
The current top 5 wicket-takers in the league are:
- Prasidh Krishna (GT) – 21 wickets
- Noor Ahmad (CSK) – 21 wickets
- Jhye Richardson (MI) and Josh Hazlewood (RCB) – 18 wickets each
Prasidh Krishna’s grip on the Purple Cap is tenuous at best, with Noor Ahmad hot on his heels after picking up a wicket in his 3-over spell against Chennai Super Kings. However, Noor Ahmad’s expensive spell meant he didn’t get to bowl his fourth over, keeping Prasidh Krishna in the lead for now.
