TFG Fantasy Pundit: Fantasy cricket tips for MI v RPS playoff at Wankhede

Overview 

Ben Stokes won't be available for this clash as he is getting ready for international duties. Jos Butler too won't feature in the playoffs. We expect Mumbai to return to their best playing 11 and see the big guns coming back to the team. Pune are likely to remain unchanged as well. 

Probable 11

RPS- Tripathi, Rahane, Smith, Dhoni, Tiwary, Christian, Khawaja/Lockie, Sundar, Zampa, Unadkat, Shardul 

MI- Patel, Simmons, Rohit, Krunal, Hardik, Pollard, Tiwary/Rana/Ambati, Bumrah, Harbhajan, Malinga/Southee, McClenaghan 

Players who cannot be missed 

Rohit- It is a big pressure game and the MI skipper has delivered in such situations before in the IPL. Plus, he will be playing in front of his home crowd. Makes all the difference. 

McClenaghan- He remains Mumbai's main strike bowler. The Kiwi pacer has a history of delivering for his team at the crucial moments. 

Smith- If anybody has to see Pune through, it has to be their skipper. Expect the Aussie to strike in the playoffs. 

Unadkat- Has been regularly picking wickets for RPS. In fact, picked at least 1 every game. Not to be left out in this form.
