3 things MI needs to do to maintain their winning momentum

The Mumbai Indians are all set to lock horns against Sunrisers Hyderabad in the 33rd game of the Indian Premier League 2025, slated to take place on April 17 at the iconic Wankhede Cricket Stadium in Mumbai. The five-time IPL champions aim to win this game to bolster their rankings in the IPL points table. Hardik Pandya and his men are currently placing themselves in the seventh spot with just two wins and four losses. They need to win almost every game from here on out to place in the knockouts.

The side heads to his clash after registering a 12-run victory against Delhi Capitals. The side needs to continue its winning momentum in its upcoming matches. Given below are the three reasons that showcase how they can continue their winning momentum.

Openers must step up

The Mumbai Indians’ openers Rohit Sharma and Ryan Rickelton need to step up from here on. The Indian skipper has been failing to give a great start and hasn’t found his best in the shortest version of the game. The Indian dasher needs to change his approach and needs to stitch the stand with the South African batter. If openers can step up, then things might change for MI.

Spinners must claim wickets in the middle overs

It has been noticed that the Mumbai Indians set out to concede many runs in the middle overs and failed to pick up wickets. The Pacers have been dominating here in the death overs and powerplays, but spinners need to mark their impact in the crucial middle overs to break the opponent’s partnerships. Mitchell Santner needs to showcase his form in the middle overs of the game.

Play Vignesh Puthur regularly

Vignesh Puthur didn’t get the last game. The star player had made a great debut in his first match against CSK. The side needs to give him a chance in every match to boost their bowling attack. The young bowler possesses the ability to pose a big threat to the opponent’s batting unit.
