IPL 2022: Hyderabad will look to break their losing streak

IPL 2022: Mumbai Indians and Sunrisers Hyderabad faceoff against each other in the 65^th match of the TATA IPL 2022, here in Mumbai

Mumbai Indians had a season to forget. They never seemed to get into the best shape in the tournament. Mumbai has won just three matches and losing the remaining 9 matches. They are at the bottom of the table and are out of contention for the playoffs. Skipper Rohit Sharma, had some positives, after winning their last game against struggling Chennai Super Kings. Mumbai is looking to end the season on a positive note, and notably, they have won three matches in their last 4.

 Sunrisers Hyderabad had started the season on a high, with high expectations of finishing at the top 2 in the table. But, as the season progressed, Kane Williamson’s side lost track, and now they are struggling at 8^th position with 5 wins and 7 losses. Currently, they are on a spell of losing 5 matches on the trot. There is a glimmer of hope to make it to their playoffs. They need to win the next two games and hope that the other teams results help their cause.
