IPL cricket: Sunday betting previews, tips and TV details

Kolkata Knight Riders v Mumbai Indians

TV: BT Sport 3, 3.30pm Sunday

Eden Gardens, Kolkata

Mumbai Indians are renowned as slow starters in the Indian Premier League but they are starting to purr with the playoffs fast approaching.

They took full advantage of the absence of influential Chennai pair MS Dhoni and Ravindra Jadeja to beat the league leaders by a convincing margin of 46 runs last time out and can follow up against struggling Kolkata Knight Riders.

Dinesh Karthik's men have lost their last six games and have been defeated in their last eight meetings with Mumbai.

Kolkata's leading runscorer Andre Russell seemed to be troubled by a wrist injury in Thursday's defeat to Rajasthan and Mumbai's bowling options give them the edge over their hosts.

Recommendation
Mumbai Indians
3pts 3-4 Betfair

Delhi Capitals v Royal Challengers Bangalore

TV: BT Sport 3, 11.30am Sunday

Feroz Shah Kotla Stadium, Delhi

Delhi Capitals have exceeded expectations with seven wins in 11 matches this season and their captain Shreyas Iyer could lead the way for the exciting hosts against Royal Challengers Bangalore.

The thrilling form of AB de Villiers has provided something for Bangalore fans to cheer about recently but it's been another disappointing campaign for the great underachievers.

Bangalore's bowling attack is weakened by the departure of Moeen Ali and the injury to Dale Steyn and Iyer, who has reached 40 in five of his last nine innings, is value to make another major contribution with the bat.

Recommendation
S Iyer top Delhi runscorer
1pt 4-1 Coral, Ladbrokes
