RR vs MI: Mumbai car not running in Rajasthan, this trend has been going on for 12 years
Rajasthan Royals vs Mumbai Indians Head-to-Head: The Mumbai Indians team is gearing up to compete in the IPL again today. It will compete with Rajasthan Royals, who are currently on a winning streak and are at the top of the IPL points table. If we talk about Mumbai, although the team suffered defeat in the first three consecutive games, but after that the team performed better and tried to get back to winning ways. But it won’t be easy for Mumbai Indians to defeat Rajasthan Royals in Jaipur. Hardik Pandya now has to do the work that was not done in the last 12 years.
The match will be played at the Sawai Man Singh Stadium in Jaipur.
Today, the teams of Mumbai Indians captained by Hardik Pandya and Rajasthan Royals captained by Sanju Samson will meet at the Sawaiman Singh Stadium in Jaipur. This will be Jaipur’s last game in this year’s IPL. After that, the Rajasthan team will play their remaining home games in Guwahati. But if the Mumbai team had seen some of the past numbers, then they would definitely be sweating as now the responsibility of breaking the trend that has been going on for 12 years now lies on Hardik Pandya.
The Mumbai team has not won the game in Jaipur in the last 12 years.
If we actually look at the head-to-head stats between Mumbai and Rajasthan, we find that out of all the matches that have taken place between the two so far, Rajasthan has won 13 matches while Mumbai Indians have won 15. The team from Mumbai seems to be ahead here. However, the last time this happened was in 2012 when Mumbai defeated Rajasthan at their home stadium Jaipur. Since then, the Rajasthan team has won every game. If we talk about this year’s IPL, Rajasthan won three out of four matches in Jaipur, only the Gujarat Titans team managed to beat them at home. Of the seven games between Rajasthan and Mumbai in Jaipur so far, Rajasthan has won five. This could create tension for Mumbai.
Rajasthan had defeated Mumbai at home.
Earlier, when the Rajasthan team came to the Wankhede Stadium to play against Mumbai, AR MI had suffered a crushing defeat by 6 wickets. Now Mumbai has time to take revenge but winning the game against Rajasthan will not be an easy task for them. In such a situation, when Trent Boult and Nandre Berger are bowling amazingly fast and Chahal’s magic continues. Even though Yashasvi Jaiswal’s bat has not started playing yet, captain Sanju Samson and Ryan Parag first led the team to victory and now it seems like Jos Buttler’s bat has also started playing. Mumbai Indians can only win in Jaipur if they deliver unexpected performances.
Probable Rajasthan Royals Team: Yashasvi Jaiswal, Jos Buttler, Sanju Samson (captain and wicketkeeper), Ryan Parag, Dhruv Jurel, Shimron Hetmyer, Ravichandran Ashwin, Trent Boult, Avesh Khan, Kuldeep Sen/Sandeep Sharma, Yuzvendra Chahal.
Impact Players: Nandre Burger/Keshav Maharaj
Likely Mumbai Indians Team: Rohit Sharma, Ishan Kishan (wicketkeeper), Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Verma, Hardik Pandya (captain), Tim David, Romario Shepherd, Mohammad Nabi, Gerald Coetzee, Shreyas Gopal, Jasprit Bumrah.
