MI Team News & Playing 11

Team News

Mumbai Indians do not have any injury scares ahead of their game against the Rajasthan Royals and all their players seem to be in good physical condition. The team has not made any changes in their line-up since the past three matches and they are unlikely to fiddle with the winning combination for this one as well.

Key Players

Suryakumar Yadav has been a revelation for the Mumbai Indians. The opener has scored over 400 runs so far and is second on the IPL 2018 runs charts. Another key man with the bat is Ishan Kishan who belted 62 runs off just 21 balls to help his side post a match-winning score of 210 in the last game against the Kolkata Knight Riders. He had also hit a fifty in the reverse encounter against the Royals. Skipper Rohit Sharma too could be dangerous once he gets his eye in. Jasprit Bumrah, Mitchell McClenaghan and Hardik Pandya (the current purple cap holder with 16 wickets) are the bowlers to watch out for. Even Mayank Markande, the young leg-spinner, has been very impressive and has foxed the batsmen on quite a few occasions.

Recent Form

Mumbai Indians are still in with a good chance of finishing in the top four at the end of the league stage, provided they win all their remaining three matches. A massive 102-run victory over the Kolkata Knight Riders in the last game helped them move up the fourth spot in the standings for the first time this season. MI have started to peak at the right time and they now have four wins in their last five matches.

RR Team News & Playing 11

Team News

Batting allrounder Mahipal Lomror and medium pacer Anureet Singh have failed to make an impact in this IPL which led the Rajasthan Royals to drop them from the side in their last game against the Chennai Super Kings. The duo was replaced by left-arm spinner Ankit Sharma and wicketkeeper-batsman Prashant Chopra who made his IPL debut. Though both had a quiet outing, the Royals will probably retain them going into this crucial match. So we expect the Royals to come up with an unchanged line-up and persist with the left-hand-right-hand opening combination of Ben Stokes and Jos Buttler.

Key Players

Jos Buttler is hitting incredible form at the moment. The opening batsman smashed a match-winning 95 in the last game against the Chennai Super Kings - his fourth IPL fifty in a row - and he is going to hold the key to Rajasthan's batting here. Sanju Samson has also been doing a good job with the bat and he had even hit a fifty in the reverse fixture. Apart from these two, the Royals will also bank on Ben Stokes and Ajinkya Rahane to score big in this match. The team's bowling relies mainly on paceman Jofra Archer who has been their standout performer with 11 wickets in 6 matches. He took a couple last time and was highly impressive at the death against CSK to claim a three-wicket haul. Jaydev Unadkat and Ish Sodhi are the others whom the Royals will count on to stifle their opponents.

Recent Form

A four-wicket win over the Chennai Super Kings in their last match has kept Rajasthan Royals in the hunt for a playoffs spot. With ten points in their kitty, the Royals are currently sixth in the IPL 2018 standings after five wins and six losses from eleven league matches. Having secured wins in their last two games, Ajinkya Rahane and his men seem to be gaining momentum at a time just when they needed it the most.

­Mumbai Indians vs Rajasthan Royals Betting Odds

Mumbai Indians are overwhelming favorites amongst the bookmakers to win this match at odds of 1.71 on Betfair and 1.66 each on Betway and Bet365. The bookmakers are not showing a lot of confidence in the Rajasthan Royals who are outsiders for this game with a 2.10 offer on Betway, 2.20 on Bet365 and 2.34 on Betfair.

­Mumbai Indians vs Rajasthan Royals Prediction

Rajasthan Royals will take plenty of motivation from their back-to-back victories but they still have a lot of pressure on them as a defeat in this game will diminish their hopes of a top four finish. They got the better of Mumbai Indians last time and having beaten them twice in their last three meetings is going to make them feel more confident. However, the Royals have not fared well in matches played away from home this IPL, losing four of their five away fixtures. While Mumbai Indians too have not been able to make the Wankhede their fortress this season having lost three out of five matches here, the advantage of being familiar with the conditions tip the scales slightly in their favor. With wins in their last three games, MI are carrying momentum with them and so we feel they have a better chance of winning this contest.

Final Verdict: Back Mumbai Indians to beat Rajasthan Royals at 1.66 each on Betway and Bet365 and 1.71 on Betfair.
