MI lost their first match against Gujarat Titans despite looking in a strong position halfway through the second innings. They then conceded record 277 against SRH before being swept aside by Rajasthan Royals at this venue, and are the only side yet to get on the board.

DC lost their first two games in disappointing fashion, against Punjab Kings and Rajasthan Royals. They put in a much-improved display to beat CSK by 20 runs, but swiftly fell back to earth with a 106-run loss to Kolkata Knight Riders in their most recent match. 

In this article, The Sporting News provides all the fantasy tips ahead of the MI vs DC clash.

Top fantasy picks and tips for MI vs DC

Batter: Tristan Stubbs

Tristan Stubbs was part of the MI camp in 2022 and 2023, but released ahead of the player auction this year. He was picked up by DC, and has showcased some impressive form on the back of a solid SA20 season with Sunrisers Eastern Cape. Expect him to build on his 103 runs in 4 innings so far.

Bowler: Akash Madhwal

While Jasprit Bumrah is the undisputed leader of MI's bowling attack, he is sometimes at risk of going wicketless as teams prefer to see out his spell. As a result, Akash Madhwal has stepped up to fill a wicket-taking gap. He took 14 in 8 last season for MI, and picked up three wickets against Rajasthan Royals last time out. 

All-rounder: Hardik Pandya

Hardik Pandya's stint as MI's new captain has not gotten off to a good start, but he has been in decent form himself. Bowling with the new ball, he has the ability to chip in with a handy wicket or two. He also performed well with the bat last time out, with a counter-attacking 34(21) from 20-4.

Wicketkeeper: Rishabh Pant

Rishabh Pant was the focus of attention ahead of this season's tournament as he made his return to action after being out for over a year due to injury. While he looked a bit scratchy in his first two innings, Pant has shown flashes of his best form and reeled off consecutive fifties against CSK and KKR. He could do the same on a Wankhede track which favours batting.
