Mumbai Indians host Kings XI Punjab in Match 51 of the 2017 Indian Premier League [IPL] and it is a must-win game for the visitors.

Here, we look at three players who you should look at picking in your fantasy team for this encounter, including our pick for your Power Player.

POWER PLAYER

LENDL SIMMONS [900,000]

Simmons has replaced Jos Buttler at the top of the order for Mumbai and scored a half-century in his first match this season on Saturday. Although he failed in his second outing, one can expect him to keep his place in the side.

The West Indian opener has a very good record at the Wankhede Stadium – averaging 41.60 in 12 T20 matches there.

HARBHAJAN SINGH [900,000]

The Indian off-spinner has quietly gone about his work, but that doesn’t take away from the fact that he has been one of the main reasons for Mumbai’s success this season.

Harbhajan has bowled 38 overs in IPL 2017 and has conceded just 5.81 runs per over which is a brilliant effort. Apart from fetching you points for his economy rate, he also has a knack of picking up important wickets.

GLENN MAXWELL [1,050,000]

The Kings XI captain has blown hot and cold this season and with his team facing a must-win match, he will be keen to make a telling impact.

In the match against Kolkata Knight Riders, he scored 44 from just 25 balls – a knock that proved to be very crucial in the end. With a few left-handed batsmen in the Mumbai team, expect Maxwell to roll his arm over as well.
