MUM vs BLR Match Preview

After losing three matches in a row, Mumbai Indians finally won their first match of the season against Delhi Capitals. Their batting showed its might by amassing 234. Rohit Sharma has been providing Mumbai fiery starts at the top but he will look to score a big one here. Ishan Kishan's form might be a worry but Tilak Varma has batted with maturity in the middle. The power-packed lower middle order consisting of Hardik Pandya, Tim David, and Romario Shepherd is Mumbai's strength. In the bowling department, Jasprit Bumrah is bowling well and Gerald Coetzee found some form in the last game.

Meanwhile, things are not looking good for Royal Challengers Bengaluru as they have now lost three matches in a row. Apart from Virat Kohli, no other batter has put up a fight this season. They will need runs from their overseas stars Faf du Plessis, Glenn Maxwell, and Cameron Green. DInesh Karthik's form is a big plus for them. The bowling has lacked penetration so far which has made it difficult for them to defend totals. RCB will need match-winning performances from experienced bowlers like Mohammed Siraj and Reece Topley against a powerful MI batting line-up.

Top Players for MUM vs BLR Gamesys11 Fantasy Cricket Team

  • Rohit Sharma - Rohit Sharma looked fluent in the last game but did not get a big score. He has looked good in this tournament. Rohit will fancy his chances against an under-confident RCB bowling line-up. He has scored 118 runs in five innings so far at a strike rate of 171.

  • Faf du Plessis - This has been a season to forget for Faf du Plessis, both as a batter and as a captain. He will be eager to score some runs here and will enjoy a bouncy Wankhede track. He has scored 109 runs in five innings so far.

  • Jasprit Bumrah - Bumrah has been in top form this season despite his bowling partners struggling. He is constantly bowling wicket-taking delieveries, which makes him such a threat. Bumrah has picked up 5 wickets this season at an average of 19.60.

Top Captaincy picks

  • Suryakumar Yadav - Suryakumar Yadav made a much-awaited comeback in the previous match but got out for a duck. He will fancy a weak RCB bowling line-up and will be eager to get back amongst runs. At No. 3, he has the ability to bat long and play shots all around the ground. He has scored 3249 runs in IPL at an average of 31.85 and a strike rate of 143.19.

  • Virat Kohli - Kohli is in top form in this IPL. He is the lone warrior in the RCB line-up who is carrying the team on his shoulders. He has scored 316 runs in five matches so far at an average of 105.33. Kohli is likely to enjoy a good batting wicket at Wankhede and will be a good captaincy pick.

Players to avoid

  • Piyush Chawla - The wicket is not likely to assist the spinners and Chawla might not get to bowl his full quota of overs. He has picked up just two wickets in four matches so far. He can be avoided for this game as he is unlikely to fetch any points.

  • Mahipal Lomror - Even though Lomror has been in good form, he was surprisingly dropped from the last match. He also bats lower down the order which means he won't have many balls to face. He might not fetch many points and can be avoided.
