Mumbai Indians (MI) will face off against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at the Wankhede Stadium is extremely important for both teams. The winner will move up to third position in the points standings as the two sides have won five from their ten games thus far. The previous time both of these teams faced off, RCB dominated MI in the season’s first game. However, with both teams having their strengths and flaws, tonight’s game might go either way.
Take a look at the top three battles to watch out for in this match:
1) Rohit Sharma vs Mohammed Siraj
On Saturday, Rohit Sharma set an unfavourable record by scoring 16 ducks, which is the highest in IPL history. Questions about his form and possibly his position on the team have begun to appear after he missed opening his score in the last two instances.
The RCB quick Mohammed Siraj has relished bowling during the powerplay, which may make things even more difficult for the opening. Although he hasn’t yet dismissed Rohit, the Mumbai Indians captain was worried by his swing and seam during the previous match, and that will undoubtedly be lingering in the visitors’ minds.
