Grand League punts
Suryakumar Yadav didn't have a great start to this season but the No. 1 T20I batter is now back to his absolute best. Especially at the Wankhede Stadium, SKY has smashed 239 runs in five innings at an average of 47.8 and a strike rate of 204.
Pick Alzarri Joseph at your own peril, as both Rohit Sharma and Suryakumar Yadav have a phenomenal record against the paceman from West Indies. While Rohit has smashed Joseph for 56 runs off 24 deliveries without getting out, SKY has an average of 52 and a strike rate of 236 against Joseph in this format.
Nehal Wadhera has been performing well in recent matches, as he has scored two back-to-back fifties in his last two games this season. In the reverse fixture against GT, the left-hander smashed 40 off 21 deliveries.
469 runs in 11 innings at an average of 46.9 and a strike rate of 143.4 - Shubman Gill is having his best IPL season. The right-handed opener, however, doesn't have a great record at the Wankhede Stadium. In eight innings, Gill has managed only 68 runs at an average of 8.5.
19 wickets in 11 games at a strike rate of 13.6 - Mohammad Shami has performed extremely well in IPL 2023. He is the highest wicket-taker and has one of the best bowling SR this season. And, 12 of those 19 wickets have come in the powerplay.
