MI vs RCB Preview

Mumbai Indians will head back home to play a vital game against RCB at the Wankhede Stadium on Monday. Both teams are coming off losses in their respective previous matches, which makes this a crucial game.

Mumbai fell to their third loss of the season out of four matches when they were unable to get past LSG’s 204 away from home on Friday. Suryakumar Yadav scored a terrific 67 off 43 balls to keep the chase afloat and Hardik Pandya took stellar figures of 5 for 36.

RCB were restricted to just 169 for 8 in their last match against Gujarat Titans but they got that far because of a fantastic fifty from Liam Livingstone who managed 54 off 40 balls.

MI Form


Mumbai have started the season in typically poor form. Out of their four matches, they have lost three, with their only win coming against KKR at this venue, which will bring them some confidence and momentum.

Tilak Varma was asked to retire out in that match because of his slow 25 off 23 balls. "He just wanted to get going but he couldn't," coach Mahela Jayawardene said. "We waited till the last few overs, because he had spent some time there so he should have been able to get that hit out of the way, but I just felt that at the end, I just needed someone fresh to go, and he was struggling.”

MI Team News


Jasprit Bumrah is fit and available for selection for this match against RCB.

RCB Form


RCB will need to put their previous game behind them quickly considering it was a bad day after they managed just 169 but they have an opportunity to correct that against a quality Mumbai team.

Form wise, they will be pleased with the return to form for Livingstone, who scored a quick fifty in the previous match.

RCB Team News


RCB won’t rush to make too many changes in this one.

Verdict

Mumbai are the slightly better team at home, particularly with Bumrah back. If he plays, then it will be a big factor in them keeping RCB down. We’re backing Mumbai to come away with a much-needed IPL win to keep their season going.
