PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS

Weather Conditions

Mumbai will have bright and sunny weather on the match day with no chances of rain as per the weather forecasters. We expect dew to have a big impact in the second innings of the match.

Brabourne Stadium has a belter of track with the ball coming onto the bat nicely. Batters can take advantage if they apply themselves on this wicket early on. We expect scores around 180-190 runs in this match.

Toss: To Bowl

Dew will make every captain to field first if they win the toss and chasing teams have a 7-1 win-loss record so far in the league.

MI vs RR
Winning Prediction

Rajasthan has one of the strongest teams with good batting and bowling unit that has experienced pace ad spin bowling options. Their only worry will be the fifth bowler`s quota of overs and bating firepower below No. 7. Mumbai lack experience in their middle order and will rely on the top order for runs unit SKY is back into the paying XI. And their bowling too depends on Bumrah which in turn puts big pressure on him. We expect MI to win this match and get their first points.
