MI vs RCB: Pitch Report and Weather Conditions

The track in Mumbai has always offered new-ball movement for speedsters, and a similar case is expected again. However, the batting should get easy once the movement goes, with the ball coming nicely on the willow. There will be additional bounce for the pacers. The team winning the toss might elect to field first, with around 200 being a fighting one.

A temperature of around 33°C, with no threat of rain, is forecast.
