5. Clash of the Fielding titans

Out of the three departments in cricket, fielding has been the greatest beneficiary of T20’s rise. All the teams have been forced to have the optimum fielding standards and make sure they save every run possible. IPL is the gold-standard when it comes to the T20 domestic cricket and these two teams have high fielding standards.

Mumbai Indians have two of the best ground-fielders in Kieron Pollard and Hardik Pandya, If these two cannot take a catch at the boundary ropes, no one else in the world can. Mustafizur did drop two catches but overall Mumbai has done well.

AB De Villiers and Virat Kohli, the duo is not only the best batting pair but also extremely fit pair in the fielding. The contest between these two teams while fielding may well be the deciding factor.
