Jasprit Bumrah: The backbone of MI Jasprit Bumrah is looking at the peak of his powers with the ball in hand.

Kagiso Rabada: The wicket-taker of the Delhi Capitals will be striving to knock off the top order of the mighty MI. Rabada too should be a sure-shot pick in your fantasy XI as he has been ruthless with his performances in every game.
