Hardik Pandya's side finally got its act together in their last game against the Delhi Capitals. The five-time champions had lost the first three games, but the batting lineup did well in a high-scoring contest, winning by 29 runs. They don’t have a good record against RCB, and Pandya would like to better that and improve its position on the points table with a win.
Ishan Kishan and Rohit Sharma put up an 80-run stand in the last game, and they will look to take on RCB’s weak bowling attack. Suryakumar Yadav strengthens the middle order and shall look to build partnerships with Hardik Pandya and Tilak Varma. Tim David and Romario Shephard put up a match-winning partnership in the last game, and they complete a strong batting lineup for the team.
The bowling attack hasn’t found its consistency. Gerald Coetzee and Jasprit Bumrah did well in their last game, and the side expects a similar show from the new ball pair. Romario Shephard and Akash Madhwal must do well in the middle overs. The side would like Piyush Chawla and Mohammad Nabi to do well in the ing role as RCB has big hitters.
Top Batsman – Rohit Sharma
Top Bowler – Jasprit Bumrah
Rohit Sharma stats are just outstanding against RCB at Wankhede Stadium, he is averaging 44.83 and has scored 269 runs in 8 matches smashing two half centuries. His form this season has been hot and cold, The Hitman has two 40+ scores in four matches.

After four defeats and a solitary win, Faf du Plessis’ side stares down the barrel. In the last game, they went down by 6 wickets against the Rajasthan Royals, where their batting strike rate and bowling form were up for questions. The side has its backs against the wall, and du Plessis would like his players to make a strong comeback in this contest. They have a great record against the Mumbai Indians and shall look to build on that.
Virat Kohli’s hundred in the last game went in vain, and he must improve his strike rate and put up a better show with Faf du Plessis at the top. The middle order has been a major headache for the side, and they need a better performance from Glenn Maxwell, Saurav Chauhan, and Cameron Green. Rajat Patidar and Dinesh Karthik must do the heavy lifting in the final overs.
The bowling attack appeared clueless in the last game, and the side expects a better show with the new ball from Yash Dayal and Reece Topley. Mohammad Siraj and Mayank Dagar must bowl tighter lines in the middle overs. The side will also need a good show in the ing role from Cameron Green and Himanshu Sharma.
Top Batsman – Virat Kohli
Top Bowler – Mohammed Siraj
RCB have been scoring good in the powerplay overs this season. In the last three matches they scored 53, 48 and 61 runs in the first 6 overs and are averaging 51 runs in the powerplay overs this season. Given the flat batting track at the Wankhede Stadium and the form of RCB openers, we back them to score over 46 runs and less than 57 runs in the first six overs.

The skies over Mumbai will be clear on April 11. We expect this to be a high-scoring game. The wicket is flat, and there isn’t much for the bowlers as batsmen can easily hit through the line. The side that bats first in the game would have a target of around 200 runs.

Average TurnWankhede Stadium, Mumbai is one of the best T20 venues for the batsmen. The boundaries are smaller here, and the pitch is flat, allowing batsmen to play their strokes easily on this surface. Fast bowlers need to be smart on this surface, while spinners get the ball to stop on the batsmen and turn sharply.
The Wankhede pitch lived up to its reputation of producing high scoring game in the last match and we are in for another high scoring cracker of a game. The last time both teams clashed off in Mumbai, the total aggregate score was 399 and expect another batting friendly surface. We predict the total aggregate score to be over 366.5 runs.
The wicket has been good for chasing scores. In the past few seasons, most games have been won by sides chasing totals. We expect this trend to continue, and the side winning the toss will look to bowl first.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru have struggled with the ball and their strike rate this season. The middle order has also played poorly, and the team will need a strong show from their senior players to win the game and keep hopes alive for a place in the next round. Mumbai Indians batsmen have hit form, and they have depth in the batting. Playing at home, they start favorites.
