The 13th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 will be played between the Delhi Capitals (DC) and Mumbai Indians (MI) at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Tuesday. The IPL 2020 final was played between the two teams and however, the difference will be DC missing their regular captain Shreyas Iyer, DC has blown hot and cold this season. However, the form of Prithvi Shaw and Rishabh Pant adds value to the Capitals, who will need their bowling attack to deliver against MI.

The likes of Kagiso Rabada are yet to make their mark in IPL 2021, but with the likes of Chris Woakes and Avesh Khan also impressing, Delhi should fancy a win on Tuesday. On the other hand, MI will be coming into the game after two wins on the trot. Their bowling attack has been phenomenal, despite some of the batting collapses almost in every game. They will need Quinton de Kock and Rohit Sharma to get back to their free-flowing selves, although it might be a tough ask against DC’s bowlers.

With the likes of Jasprit Bumrah and Trent Boult running riot for the Mumbai Indians, they can be termed as favorites to win the game. But against a top-class batting unit, including Orange Cap holder Shikhar Dhawan as an opener, the Delhi Capitals can’t be taken lightly. With Pant and his men looking to avenge their loss to the Mumbai Indians in last year’s final, fans will be expecting a mouth-watering clash at the MA Chidambaram Stadium on Tuesday.

Delhi Capitals will not be expected to make changes in their playing XI. However, citing the conditions in Chennai, Ami Mishra could find a spot in the final eleven at the cost of a pacer, given his potency against Rohit Sharma (6 dismissals) and the tacky nature of the Chepauk surface.

Probable XI: Shikhar Dhawan, Prithvi Shaw, Steven Smith, Rishabh Pant, Marcus Stoinis, Lalit Yadav, Chris Woakes, R Ashwin, Kagiso Rabada, Avesh Khan, Amit Mishra

Mahela Jayawardene mentioned a shoulder niggle for Hardik Pandya, and that might force Mi to make a change in the playing XO Rishabh Pant has a poor record against Bumrah, who has also been quite lethal against Steve Smith. Mumbai Indians don;t have much to ponder apart from that.

Probable XI: Rohit Sharma, Quinton de Kock, Ishan Kishan, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Kieron Pollard, Krunal Pandya, Rahul Chahar, Adam Milne, Jasprit Bumrah, Trent Boult
