The two teams that are yet to play against each other in the Indian Premier League 2018 are Mumbai Indians and Kolkata Knight Riders. Two high-profile teams will engage in their first battle of the season at the Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai. Mumbai needs to win each match while Kolkata cannot afford to lose either. Here are the five things to look out for from the encounter.
Sunil Narine
The mystery bowler has now turned into a utility all-rounder. Sunil Narine is causing nightmares to the opposite teams simply because he is bowling as good as always and is scoring very important runs at the top as well. His unorthodox hitting at the top has disturbed few teams.
Narine in this season has 193 runs in the nine that he has played. He has smashed 18 fours and 14 sixes at the top with a strike rate of 170. In bowling, he has been exceptionally economical and wicket-taking at the same time. 10 wickets with an economy of 7.45 is a brilliant return.
