Info: 

• Rohit Sharma is a top choice for MI best batter. Rohit has looked in great touch but has lost his wicket at wrong time. However, he has form behind him and Wankhede is a productive venue for him. Rohit can be backed as top batter for MI. Jasprit Bumrah is a world class bowler and bagged three wickets against GT. He was brilliant against SRH as well. Back him as top bowler.
• Riyan Parag has looked in sensational form. He has played with fearless attitude and shown tremendous skills. He scored 84 in 45 balls against DC. Back him as top batter. Yuzvendra Chahal is the trump card for Sanju Samson and will hold the key for RR. Back him as top bowler.
• Wankhede is a six hitting ground so both teams can be backed to hit over 7.5 sixes in their innings given the quality batters they have up their ranks.

Toss Predictions: 

Wankhede is always a happy hunting ground for chasing teams and it’s no hidden secret that the captain winning the toss would want to chase.

Weather & Pitch Report: 

Weather: ⛅

It will be a humid evening in Mumbai, with the temperature hovering around the 30 degree mark. Dew should not be heavy but there could be little dew that could make defending even more difficult.

Pitch Report:

The wicket will be a belter but we are likely to have a very competitive game given the quality bowling attacks of both teams. Spinners might not be very effective thus pacers will have to shoulder the responsibility of picking crucial wickets.

Team NEWS: 

MI Team News: 

Mumbai Indians are in a desperate situation and need a win at all cost. There are likely to make a few changes in the playing XI. Kwena Maphaka should make way for Nuwan Tushara or Akash Madhwal. Suryakumar Yadav has still not got his NOC from National Cricket Academy so will miss the match. 

RR Team News: 

Rajasthan Royals have been brilliant in the first two games and they should not tinker with their winning combination for the Wankhede clash.

Team Combo:

Winning Chances: 

MI can be backed to win. The team has lost both the previous game but they are back at Wankhede where they enjoy a brilliant record. MI have not played bad cricket but the captaincy from Hardik Pandya has been questionable at times, resulting in defeats. Pandya needs to be very smart as a captain. If he keeps things simple, MI have a very strong team on paper and can be very hard to stop if they pick momentum. It should be a close game but MI should register a win.

Mumbai Indians to beat Rajasthan Royals.

Mumbai Indians a 77% chance to win this match 

Rajasthan Royals have a 23% chance to win this match 

Key Players: 

Mumbai Indians 

Rohit Sharma 

Rohit Sharma has looked fluent during his stay at the crease but the big knock is still impending. Rohit has played knocks of 43 and 26 in two games. Once set, Rohit should look to play till 10 overs because that should be enough for him to put MI in a great position.

Tilak Varma 

Tilak Varma played a brilliant innings of 64 in the last game against Sunrisers Hyderabad. He kept the team in the hunt for a massive 278 run chase. Varma was MI’s star last season and is one of the key batters of the side in the absence of Suryakumar Yadav.

Gerald Coetzee 

Gerald Coetzee has been ineffective so far but the conditions in Mumbai where there is a bit more bounce should suit his bowling style. He is a very good bowler and will be hungry to make an impact in IPL 2024.

Jasprit Bumrah 

Bumrah is a legend in his own right. He has been sensational as ever this year. Even when MI conceded 277 runs against SRH, Burmah went at an economy of just 9. He was top notch in the first game against GT and picked three wickets.

MI Possible Impact Player Substitutes 

Dewald Brevis, Mohammad Nabi, Nehal Wadhera, Romario Shepherd, Vishnu Vinod 

MI can use Dewald Brevis as an impact player in the middle order if they want someone to push the run rate. If they need a bowler, Romario Shepherd can be used. Or if there is some help for spinners, Nabi can also come in.

Rajasthan Royals 

Yashasvi Jaiswal 

Jaiswal has endured two failures in the first two games but given the form he has been in recent times, a big inning is loading anytime soon. Jaiswal has a knack of scoring centuries and we won’t be surprised if he opens the account at Wankhede Stadium.

Riyan Parag 

We are seeing a new Riyan Parag in IPL 2024. After years of trolling, Parag has finally joined the party. He has played game changing inning in both the matches played so far. RR were in trouble against DC but he scored 84 in 45 balls to take the team to a safe total of 185-5.

Yuzvendra Chahal 

Chahal has been a game changer for Royals and he has done exactly the same in the current season. The leg spinner has been magnificent, taking three wickets in two games at an average of 14.

Trent Boult 

Wickets with the new ball will be key for RR and in Boult they have someone who can be lethal in the powerplay. Also, left arm bowlers have troubled Rohit Sharma a lot so it will be a match up everyone will be looking up to.

RR Possible Impact Player Substitutes 

Rovman Powell, Nandra Burger, Tanush Kotian, Kuldeep Sen, Shubham Dubey 

If RR need a batter they will surely go in with Rovman Powell, however, if a bowler is required, Nandre Burger will the best bet.

Team Forms: 

MI Team Form: 

MI have been inconsistent in the last few seasons, with their last title win coming in 2020.  MI reached the playoffs last year.

RR Team Form: 

RR have done consistently well in the last few years but the trophy has eluded them. They missed out on a playoff  berth last year after finishing fifth.
