RCB Vs MI

Match 39 of IPL 2021 is between Royal challengers Bangalore and Mumbai Indians. Match will be played in Dubai International stadium. Both teams have lost their first match of phase 2 and looking for a comeback. There are many match winners in both the teams. In this article we will see 5 players who can perform well in MI Vs RCB game.

5. Quinton De Kock (MI)

Mumbai’s opener and a destructive South African batsmen Quinton De Kock has played man match winning knocks for MI. he with Rohit Sharma makes a perfect opening pair of left- and right-hand combination. He was in a decent form in last match and also the highest run getter for MI.

4. Devdutt Padikal (RCB)

RCBs new opening batsmen Devdutt Padikal has showed his class. He scored 70 runs against CSK in last match. He is a complete batsmen and advantage of him is he opens with Virat Kohli which gives a perfect balance of left- and right-hand combination. RCB and RCB fans will expect a good start from him.

3. AB De Villiers (RCB)

AB De Villiers plays amazing against Mumbai and stats shows this. He is the only batsmen who takes Bumrah with ease. We all know what he is capable of. Form does not matter when we are talking about De Villiers. If RCB loses an early wicket AB De Vilifiers will surely play a big inning.

2. Rohit Sharma (MI)

Mumbai captain Rohit Sharma can play a big inning today. Actually, opening partnership of Mumbai can be a problem for RCB bowlers. Reason why I am saying this is because RCB does not have a proper bowler who can take wickets in power play and on the other hand MI has a perfect opening pair and Rohit can take the charge and can score big.

1. Glenn Maxwell (RCB)/Kieron Pollard (MI)

Glenn Maxwell of RCB and Kieron Pollard of Mi both are destructive power hitting all-rounders and I am expecting a good game from both of them. We all know what they can do. Pollard plays almost a second captain for MI and is one of the major players of team. He can finish the innings for MI and can bowl 2 to 3 overs in between. Maxwell started his IPL 2021 with RCB very well. In previous match too he took wickets which will surely give him confidence. Today’s game can be high scoring game that’s why I have picked all the batsmen because there are very less chances for bowlers but still anything can happen as it is unpredictable game.
