The Mumbai Indians (MI) will be looking to avenge their earlier defeat against the Rajasthan Royals (RR) when the two teams clash today in Jaipur by 7:30 India Standard Time.
RR is playing a match against MI for the second time this season.
In their last encounter, MI tasted an embarrassing loss to RR, a game where the RR’s pacer, Trent Boult, was the star performer.
RR vs MI Recent Performance:
The Royals have now reached the top position in the IPL 2024 standings and need only a few more games to get through the playoffs and reach the finals. Well, the team has a good batting setup and home games have been nothing but great for them as they won 3 out of the 4 games played at Sawai Mansingh Stadium.
While on the other hand MI is at the seventh position in the ranking and they require a winning streak to move up the ladder. Their bowling lineup is centered on Jasprit Bumrah, and they would need other bowlers to contribute and take on the challenge of RR.
