MI vs RCB Match Preview
Mumbai Indians put themselves back on the winning track with a victory in their most recent game, and they are currently ranked eighth. However, Royal Challengers Bangalore, currently ranked ninth, have only won one of their five games played.
After a sluggish start, Mumbai Indians finally found their groove, defeating Delhi Capitals in their last encounter. Led by the explosive Hardik Pandya, the five-time champions showcased an aggressive brand of cricket, propelling them to a formidable total of 234 runs.
Rohit Sharma’s blistering 49 off 27 balls and Ishan Kishan’s 42 off 23 deliveries laid the foundation, while Tim David’s unbeaten 45 off 21 balls and Romario Shepherd’s blistering 39 off just 10 balls provided the final flourish.
On the bowling front, Jasprit Bumrah and Gerald Coetzee spearheaded the attack, claiming six wickets between them and restricting Delhi Capitals despite their valiant chase. Mumbai Indians will be buoyed by this performance and aim to carry the momentum into the RCB clash.
Despite Virat Kohli‘s scintillating form, which includes an unbeaten century against Rajasthan Royals, Royal Challengers Bengaluru find themselves languishing in the bottom half of the table. Their bowling attack has struggled to contain opposition batters, with Mohammed Siraj‘s dip in form and the lack of quality spin options compounding their woes.
The middle order has also failed to support Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis, leaving the team heavily reliant on individual brilliance. RCB will be hoping for a collective effort from their batters and bowlers to halt their three-game losing streak and reclaim their winning momentum.
MI vs RCB Head To Head Records
In the 34 head-to-head meetings between these two teams in the IPL, Mumbai Indians hold a slight edge with 20 victories, while RCB has won 14 times.
| Total Match | 34 |
| MI Won | 20 |
| RCB Won | 14 |
However, RCB has won four out of the last five encounters, including a recent triumph at the Wankhede Stadium, where they chased down a mammoth total of 200 in just 16.4 overs.
Wankhede Stadium Pitch Report
Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai is one of the best T20 venues for batsmen. The boundaries are smaller here, and the pitch is flat, allowing batsmen to play their strokes easily on this surface. Fast bowlers need to be smart on this surface, while spinners get the ball to stop on the batsmen and turn sharply.
For batters, this surface has shown to be favorable. Due to early swings from the pacers and potential turns from the spinners, bowlers receive some help.
