Changes to Squad: Having qualified for the playoffs already, Mumbai may look to give chance to few players who have been sitting on bench and not yet got the opportunity to showcase their talent. On the other hand, Delhi has lost three matches in a row and needs to make some significant changes to get back to winning ways. Prithvi Shaw is likely to replace Ajinkya Rahane as opener and Delhi may also make some changes in bowling department against the strong Mumbai batting lineup. It remains to be seen if Rohit Sharma makes his comeback after suffering hamstring injury, although Rohit would not be looking to take any risk as Mumbai has already qualified for Playoffs.
