MIvKKR: Wankhede beckons, comeback beckons! B.E.L.I.E.V.E
After a tough run of games on the road, it is time to return to our spiritual abode and seek a much-needed change in fortunes. Yes, the MI Boys are back at the Wankhede Stadium and will go with a confident prayer of an upturn in form against an opponent we have the wood over, the Kolkata Knight Riders.
The Mumbai Indians have a commanding 23-9 lead, and have emerged victorious in nine out of the ten MIvKKR IPL matches at the Wankhede Stadium.
