Indian T20 League 2022: Kolkata vs Mumbai Fantasy Cricket Match-Ups

By Parameswaran Sankaranarayanan April 5, 2022

Fresh off a victory, Kolkata will take on Mumbai in match 14 of the Indian T20 League 2022 season. The Shreyas Iyer-led franchise beat Punjab by six wickets on Friday to register a second win in the tournament. On the other hand, Mumbai, who lost to Rajasthan by 23 runs in their last game, will be keen to avoid a hat-trick of defeats.

We look at some of the most exciting First Games fantasy cricket Match-Ups in the Kolkata-Mumbai match. 

R Sharma vs S Iyer

R Sharma and Shreyas Iyer will go neck and neck in this Match-Up. Both batsmen haven't been impressive this season. The Mumbai skipper has made 51 runs from two games, while his Kolkata counterpart managed only 59 runs in three innings. Sharma is likely to fire on all cylinders on Wednesday. 
 
Did You Know? R Sharma averages 46 against Kolkata

I Kishan vs U Yadav

Two in-form players face off in Pune. Mumbai wicketkeeper-batsman Ishan Kishan has hit consecutive half-centuries - 81* & 54 - in the tournament. Meanwhile, Umesh Yadav is the Purple Cap holder with eight wickets at an economy of 4.91. He could extend his impressive run and pick up more fantasy points than the 23-year-old. 

T Varma vs T Southee

Tilak Varma has made his opportunity count with excellent knocks in both matches. He topped Mumbai's fantasy points chart against Rajasthan with 110 points. However, he faces Tim Southee, who has scored 158 points from just two outings. The 19-year-old might spring another surprise and could win the duel against the experienced Kiwi pacer.

J Bumrah vs A Russell

Jasprit Bumrah and Andre Russell found their rhythm in their respective last matches. Though Bumrah's three-wicket haul went in vain against Rajasthan, Andre Russell's staggering knock - 70* off 31 balls - against Punjab saw Kolkata recover from 51/4 and chase down 138 with 33 balls to spare. Bumrah has the edge over Russell in this Match-Up.

M Ashwin vs S Narine

The all-spinners Match-Up will pit Murugan Ashwin against Sunil Narine. Both players have picked up two wickets each in the tournament. But Narine has been economical in all three matches, and it gives him the favorite tag in the battle against the Mumbai spinner, who registered figures of 2/14 in Mumbai's opening match.
