- 🏆 The Hundred Women 2026
- ✅ Playing XI confirmed (22 players)
MI look rejuvenated with Hardik Pandya leading the side. Rohit Sharma and Suryakumar Yadav are the batting backbone. Jasprit Bumrah remains their trump card — when fit and firing at Wankhede, he is virtually unplayable. Quinton de Kock adds another dimension as the hard-hitting wicketkeeper.
KKR arrive as IPL 2024 champions, riding high on confidence under Ajinkya Rahane's captaincy. Andre Russell has been released after 11 years, but Cameron Green (₹25.2 crore — the most expensive overseas player ever bought at IPL auction) is the marquee replacement. Sunil Narine remains their talisman. Key absences: Harshit Rana (knee surgery, likely out all season), Matheesha Pathirana (calf strain, available mid-April only), Akash Deep (lower-back, out for season).
SKY at Wankhede as captain is arguably the single best fantasy decision you can make in IPL 2026. World's best T20 batter at his home ground — his double points potential is unrivalled. He consistently scores 35-70 at this venue and the short boundaries suit him perfectly.
Narine as VC provides the all-round ceiling that can win grand leagues. His combination of aggressive opening batting (20-40 off 15 balls) and wicket-taking mystery spin makes him a dual-threat who can rack up 60-80+ points on a big day.
- Suryakumar Yadav(MI)
SKY is the best T20 batter in the world. He plays 360-degree cricket that no bowler has found an answer to, and at his home ground Wankhede, he is devastating. His ability to hit sixes in all directions makes him virtually uncaptainable for opposition bowlers on the short Wankhede boundaries.
- Rohit Sharma(MI)
Rohit at Wankhede is a force of nature. His renowned ability to time the ball with absolute perfection makes him dangerous at this venue. When he is in the mood, he can post 60+ in the powerplay before the field spreads.
- Jasprit Bumrah(MI)
The best death bowler in the world. Bumrah at Wankhede uses the sea breeze to generate swing and the hard surface to generate pace. He regularly bowls overs that go for 4-6 runs at the death — an almost unique skill in modern T20 cricket.
- Sunil Narine(KKR)
Narine is perhaps the most complete T20 cricketer of his generation. His mystery spin confounds top-order batters, while his aggressive opening batting — where he can score 30-40 in 15 balls — means he contributes in all phases. A truly elite fantasy selection.
- Cameron Green(KKR)
KKR's record ₹25.2 crore buy — the most expensive overseas player in IPL history — is tasked with filling the Andre Russell void. Green's explosive batting and useful pace bowling make him a genuine all-round threat. His debut at Wankhede will be one of the most anticipated moments of the opening week.
- Varun Chakravarthy(KKR)
Varun's mystery variations make even experienced batters look foolish. At Wankhede, where the pitch tends to grip later in the innings, his unreadable carrom balls and googly variations can run through a batting lineup — especially in the middle overs.
