Today In IPL 2021, MI vs RR, 24th Match: Expected Playing XI
In the 24th match of the IPL 2021, Mumbai Indians(MI) will take on Rajasthan Royals(RR) in Delhi. MI lost its last match against Punjab Kings(PBKS) while RR won its game against Kolkata Knight Riders(KKR).
Mumbai Indians' batting hasn't been in the best of forms lately. Only Rohit Sharma and Suryakumar Yadav have consistently made runs. With a venue change, there might be some relief for MI's batters. Kieron Pollard could play a game-changing role in this match.
MI will bank on Trent Boult and Jasprit Bumrah once again in the bowling department. Jayant Yadav has been impressive with the ball and can contribute with the bat as well. Rahul Chahar will be the X-factor.
Rajasthan Royals' too hasn't been in great but they managed to finish a game in the last match which will give them confidence. Sanju Samson has a big role to play for RR to dominate with the bat. Jos Buttler will be crucial at the top as well.
Chris Morris has had a good tournament so far especially with the ball in hand. Mustafizur Rahman will be crucial if Delhi provides a traditional two-paced wicket.
Both Rajasthan Royals and Mumbai Indians have been neck to neck against each other in the past. Given the form, the match could go down to the wire but MI might go past RR in this contest.
