🏏IPL Match 51 Rajasthan Royals vs Mumbai Indians🏏 - Page 2

Stats that matter

Barring Rohit and de Kock, no Mumbai batter has crossed the 250-run mark for the season. All their batters, meanwhile, have combined to pass 50 only six times, with only de Kock doing so more than once.

Krunal Pandya has only picked up five wickets so far in 11 innings, which is his lowest tally for any IPL season. His economy rate of 7.74 is also his worst in any season.

Since the IPL's resumption in the UAE, the Royals have scored at 8.8 runs an over inside the Powerplay, and also average 44 in the phase.

No team has scored quicker than them in this phase. Royals have also found the boundary every 4.4 balls in this phase in the UAE, and no team has bettered that.

Hard task ahead for both of them. A win won't guarantee them a place in the final 4. But, a good win may give them a chance. Let us see who will try to get the advantage.

May the best team win.

I may not be able to come back for the match.

Have fun everyone!

Cheers..

Rajasthan Royals Predicted Playing XI:

Evin Lewis, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Sanju Samson (c & wk), Shivam Dube, Glenn Phillips, David Miller, Rahul Tewatia Akash Singh, Mayank Markande, Chetan Sakariya, Mustafizur Rahman

Mumbai Indians Predicted Playing XI:

Rihit Sharma(c), Quinton de Kock (wk), Suryakumar Yadav Saurabh Tiwary, Hardik Pandya a, Kieron Pollard, Krunal Pandya, Jayant Yadav, Trent Boult, Jasprit Bumrah, Nathan Coulter-Nile

The business end of the tournament, and a must win for both sides. A loss against Rajasthan Royals today will eliminate Mumbai Indians from the playoffs race, while if Royals lose even by just one run today, they will have to beat Knight Riders by about 75 runs to go past them on NRR
