Match 14 of IPL 2022 will see Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) lock horns with Mumbai Indians (MI) on Wednesday at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune. Rohit Sharma and Co are yet to win a game in this competition while KKR have won two in three matches.
Star batter Suryakumar Yadav is likely to return to the playing XI after missing the first three matches which will be a huge boost to MI. He has been an integral part of their batting in the last few years and Mumbai will hope Suryakumar’s will solve their batting woes.

MI will look to regroup and come out all guns blazing against KKR, who thrashed Punjab Kings in their last outing, thanks to an Andre Russell show. The big West Indian thrashed everything at his disposal to help Kolkata secure a win.
The two-time IPL champions have looked decent with Shreyas Iyer marshalling his troops like a true leader. Pat Cummins is likely to be available from today’s game which will be a booster from the Purple Brigade.
