MI Emirates vs Abu Dhabi Knight Riders Chance of Winning

MI Emirates headed into the playoffs after an impressive run in the second half of the season but failed to show up in the first round against Desert Vipers. They conceded 233 runs in the first innings and failed in the run chase as they lost the game by 45 runs and would be hoping to bounce back in this game.

As per our calculations, MI Emirates are favourites in the upcoming game.

MI Emirates vs Abu Dhabi Knight Riders Prediction & Tips 2025

Kieron Pollard has had a decent campaign thus far as he has scored 197 runs with an average of 24.62. Even though he struggled in the last game, we expect him to bounce back and score well in the upcoming game.

Philip Salt was impressive once again in the last game as he scored 43 off 34 balls. After a slow start to the campaign, he has been impressive in the second half of the season and we believe he will do well in the upcoming game.
