RR vs MI Pitch Report: Pitch report and weather conditions
The fast bowlers got help in the first match of this season in Guwahati. Chennai Super Kings were all out for just 127 runs. Rajasthan Royals easily achieved this small target. The fast bowlers were helped due to moisture on the pitch. There is a possibility of rain in this match also in the afternoon, but the weather is expected to clear by evening. The team chasing runs in the second innings can get an advantage because batting becomes easier to a great extent due to dew falling at night.
MI vs RR: Head-to-head
In IPL, both the teams have faced each other 30 times so far. In this, 16 matches have been won by Mumbai, while 14 have been won by Rajasthan Royals. There was a match between the two in the last season. Mumbai won this match by 100 runs.
Suryavanshi's first encounter with Jasprit Bumrah
The biggest attraction of this match will be the contest between Suryavanshi and Bumrah. Suryavanshi has not yet faced Bumrah in professional cricket. If he stays at the crease, this match can change the course of the match. Mumbai Indians are also looking to strengthen their bowling after the defeat against Delhi Capitals. At the same time, winning this match for RR can take them to the top of the points table.
Hardik Pandya-Trent Boult expected to return
RR had scored 210 runs in the last match and their team looks balanced, so they can retain the same playing eleven. On the other hand, Hardik Pandya's comeback could be important for MI. He could not play the last match due to illness. In his absence MI had to include additional players. Now Pandya has returned to the nets and it is expected that he will play in this match. If he comes into the team, he can replace Deepak Chahar. Apart from this, Trent Boult may also return.
Keep an eye on these players: Joffra Archer and Mayank Markande
Joffra Archer is one of the most dangerous bowlers of RR. He bowled brilliantly in the death overs against Gujarat. It will be very important for MI to handle him. Whereas Mayank Markande has not got much success till now. He has not taken any wicket yet and has conceded a lot of runs. If he gets a chance, he would like to perform better.
Rajasthan Royals Probable Playing 11
Ryan Parag (captain), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Vaibhav Suryavanshi, Dhruv Jurel (wicketkeeper), Shimron Hetmyer, Donovan Ferreira, Ravindra Jadeja, Joffra Archer, Nandre Berger, Tushar Deshpande, Sandeep Sharma, Ravi Bishnoi.
Mumbai Indians probable playing 11
Suryakumar Yadav (captain), Rohit Sharma, Ryan Rickelton (wicketkeeper), Tilak Verma, Naman Dheer, Sherfane Rutherford, Mitchell Santner, Hardik Pandya, Shardul Thakur, Deepak Chahar and Jasprit Bumrah, Trent Boult.
