MI vs DC: Head-to-head stats and numbers you need to know before Match 46 of IPL 2021
After beating the Punjab Kings in their previous IPL 2021 match, the Mumbai Indians will travel to Sharjah to battle the Delhi Capitals. Last year in the UAE, MI and DC crossed swords in the IPL 2020 Final, where the Rohit Sharma-led outfit recorded a win.
In IPL 2021 though, DC has performed much better than MI. Playing under the captaincy of Rishabh Pant, DC have registered eight wins in 11 matches. Meanwhile, MI have won only five of their 11 games.
MI need to win their upcoming match against DC to strengthen their chances of making it to the Indian Premier League playoffs again. Before the two sides meet in Sharjah, here's a look at their head-to-head record.
