Mumbai Indians v Rajasthan Royals – Match Preview

MI and RR have both won two and lost three of their opening five games this year.

Mumbai started well but have since slipped to back-to-back losses. They now face a Rajasthan side that has a good record against them, having won six of the last eight meetings.

Where: Feroz Shah Kotla, Delhi

When: Thursday, 29 April 2021

Start time: 15:30 IST (10:00 GMT)

Pitch conditions: This is just the second game at this ground this IPL. Historically, it is a venue that is slow and favours spinners, which is still the case even though it has quickened up a little in recent years.

Weather conditions: It should be another warm day in Delhi for this contest. There is no cloud cover and rain is very unlikely. Temperatures will be just below 40 degrees.

Mumbai Indians v Rajasthan Royals – Team News

  • Rahul Chahar – The Mumbai spinner has been in excellent form this IPL and already has nine wickets to his name. He should enjoy conditions in Delhi.
  • Piyush Chawla – The leg-spinner was a new addition for Mumbai this year but hasn’t featured yet. However, it will be interesting to see if he gets an opportunity in this clash.
  • Rohit Sharma – The Mumbai skipper has done well with the bat so far this tournament and heads into this on the back of 63 against Punjab. More runs could be on the cards.
  • Jos Buttler – England opener Buttler has endured a frustrating start to the IPL. He hasn’t been able to hit top gear but will be hoping a change of venue can bring out his best.
  • Chris Morris – The South African all-rounder hasn’t looked fazed by the high fee that RR forked out for him. He has bagged nine wickets already but may have to contribute with the bats again here.

Mumbai Indians v Rajasthan Royals – Betting Tips and Prediction

Mumbai have lost their way a little after a decent start to the tournament but should have too much for Rajasthan.

Given the short price of the defending champions for the outright win, we have looked at other markets to find the best bets for this one.

Buttler to Outscore de Kock

Both Jos Buttler and Quinton de Kock have failed to really fire this IPL but it could be worth siding with Buttler to do the better of the two in Delhi.

Besides a score of 40 three games ago, South African de Kock hasn’t made double figures. Buttler has played some fine strokes before seeing soft dismissals end his recent innings.

However, Buttler did well for England at this ground in 2016. He hit an unbeaten 66 in one of three matches and a return could spark him to life.

He can be backed at 1.91 with 22Bet to get more runs that de Kock in the fixture.

Yadav Offers Value

Suryakumar Yadav will be disappointed he hasn’t been able to make a big score in IPL 2021 despite some encouraging starts.

He has been able to get himself in without kicking on to make a huge contribution. His highest score so far was the half-century against KKR in the second game.

He looks ready to finally go big and this clash with Rajasthan could be the time to catch him.

His price of 3.75 with bet365 looks a value play, especially with Quinton de Kock struggling for runs at the top of the order.

Rohit will be a big danger to this bet but siding with Yadav at the prices seem sensible.

Dube is a Great Longshot Bet

All-rounder Shivam Dube looks to be gaining in confidence after recent showings and could be worth a look in the top Rajasthan batsman market.

Should Mumbai dominate this clash as expected, then the Royals could find themselves losing early wickets. It means Dube, batting at number four, could have extra time to chalk up the runs here.

He has scores of 46 and 22 in his last two matches but could now push on. He also smashed a 28-ball 42 when he last played at this ground in the Vijay Hazare Trophy.

His price of 8.0 with 22Bet to be Rajasthan’s top batsman is a tempting price.
