Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Mumbai Indians match prediction 4 May 2021

SRH vs MI 31st Match Predictions & Betting Tips

The 31st fixture of the IPL 2021 will take place between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Mumbai Indians. The match will be held at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on Tuesday, May 4. I have hand-picked the top SRH vs MI betting tips for you to bet upon.

Sunrisers Hyderabad continued to be at the bottom of the table after losing by 55 runs to Rajasthan Royals in the first match of the doubleheader Sunday at Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi. They are on two points and a playoff berth looks very distant with Kane Williamson and Co. Chasing the huge total, SRH openers Jonny Bairstow and Manish Pandey got them off to a solid start, adding 57 for no loss inside the Powerplay. However, they lost the plot in the middle phase as wickets kept falling at regular intervals.

While Mumbai Indians on the other end notched their fourth win of the season. They beat table-toppers Chennai Super Kings by four wickets at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on Saturday. Chasing CSK’s target, MI depended on the opening partnership of Rohit Sharma and Quinton de Kock to get things going. Later on Kieron Pollard’s 34-ball 87* proved enough for Mumbai to reach the target. In the first match played this season, Mumbai Indians had beaten SRH by 13 runs. Now as they meet for the second time, I have assorted the top betting tips from the SRH vs MI match for you.

Rohit Sharma To Score Over 28.5 Runs

It is a known fact that, Rohit Sharma has etched his name as the most successful captain in the IPL with five trophies. Rohit has been an integral part of the Mumbai Indians guiding the batting line-up since 2011. He has played 170 matches for Mumbai Indians and has 4548 runs to his name at an average of 31.80. A prolific run getter, the Hitman is one of the most naturally gifted batsmen and has been enjoying a tremendous run with his bat. The captain has played 206 IPL matches and amassed 5445 runs from it, standing at an average of 3147. In the seven innings that Rohit has featured in the ongoing season, his scores are 35,14,63,44,40,43 and 19. Sharma is currently the lead run-scorer for his team, with a total of 250 runs and an average of 35.71.

The right-handed batsman led the Mumbai Indians squad to a successful campaign in the 2020 season. This was his consecutive title victory. Sharma has played 17 matches against SRH in the past and has put together 259 runs from it. When it comes to the shorter format, there are very few batsmen who can match up to his striking abilities. Sportsbet.io has offered betting odds of 1.85 for Rohit Sharma to score 28.5 runs against Sunrisers Hyderabad.

Jonny Bairstow To Hit Over 25.5 Runs

Last but not the least, presenting the top performer of Hyderabad. Bairstow has played seven innings in the ongoing season and scored 248 (61,38,2,63,38,7 & 30) runs from it. He holds a good average of 41.33 in the current batting format. Playing against MI, the opening batsman holds an average of 28.00 from three matches played. The tenacious wicketkeeper made his entrant to the SRH squad in the 2019 season. He had a brilliant debut in the same season scoring 445 runs that included a century.

The wicket-keeper batsman has played 27 matches for Sunrisers Hyderabad and scored 1008 runs from it at an average of 42.00. In 2020, Bairstow finished the season with 345 runs from 11 matches played. In the earlier match played against Mumbai Indians this season, Bairstow ticked off 43 runs from 22 balls played which included three boundaries and four sixes. He was the highest run-getter in the same match. Amidst SRH’s performance in the ongoing season, it is fair to say that Bairstow is among few batsmen holding the fort for Hyderabad. Hence one can expect nothing different from him this season as well, when Bairstow takes charge of the SRH top order. Sportsbet.io has offered betting odds of 1.85 for Jonny Bairstow to score over 24.5 runs in the match against RR.
