Posted on 29th Apr 2021 03:23 pm by rohit kumar

The 24th match of the IPL 2021 season is being played between Mumbai Indians (MI) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) at Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. Mumbai captain Rohit Sharma won the toss and decided to bowl first. Rajasthan\'s record against Mumbai has been excellent. There have been a total of 25 matches between the two so far. RR has won 12 matches and MI has also won 12 matches. In the last 6 matches, the Rajasthan team has defeated Mumbai in 5 matches.

 

No change in RR and 1 change in Mumbai

Samson did not make any changes to the Rajasthan team. Mumbai captain Rohit replaced Nathan Coulter Nile in the playing-11 in place of Ishaan Kishan. Coulter Nile has played just 1 match this season.

 

4-4 foreign players in both teams

The Rajasthan team included foreign players Jose Butler, David Miller, Chris Morris, and Mustafizur Rahman. At the same time, playing-11 in Mumbai includes foreign players Quinton , Nathan Coulter Nile, Kieron Pollard, and Trent Boult.

 

Both teams:

 

Mumbai: Rohit Sharma (captain), Quinton, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Krunal Pandya, Kieron Pollard, Rahul Chahar, Jayant Yadav, Trent Boult, Nathan Coulter Nile, and Jaspreet Bumrah.

 

Rajasthan: Sanju Samson (captain), Jos Buttler, Yashasvi Jaiswal, David Miller, Ryan Parag, Rahul Tewatia, Shivam Dubey, Chris Morris, Jaydev Unadkat, Mustafizur Rahman, and Chetan Sakaria.

 

The performance of both the teams so far this season

Both teams have managed to win only 2-2 out of 5-5 matches so far. In this match, Mumbai is losing two consecutive matches. That means if Mumbai loses, it will be a hat-trick of defeats for it. At the same time, Rajasthan has defeated Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the last match.

 

They both have 4-4 points. Mumbai ranked fourth based on a better net run rate. Rajasthan\'s team is at number seven. If the Rajasthan team wins in this match, it will come in fourth place. Mumbai\'s team will remain at number four even after the victory. In the event of defeat, it will slip from this place.

 

Trouble for Mumbai batting in the death over

Mumbai\'s team has been able to score runs in the Death Overs (16th to 20th over) this season with a run rate of 7.45 runs per over. This is the weakest performance among all eight teams this season. Mumbai stars like Hardik Pandya and Kieron Pollard failed to do the batting on slow pitches in Chennai.

 

Rajasthan\'s death bowling is very weak

It is a matter of relief for Mumbai that their rival team Rajasthan in this match has been the worst bowling team in the Death Overs this season. In the Death Overs, Rajasthan has scored runs at a run rate of 11.51. The Rajasthan bowlers will also try to improve their performance in front of Mumbai in the last over.

 

Bumrah-Bolt dominates against Sanju Samson.

Captain Sanju Samson\'s good batting is very important for Rajasthan. The Mumbai team could use both Trent Boult and Jaspreet Bumrah to stop Samson. Bolt has allowed Samson to score just 16 runs off 16 balls. At the same time, Bumrah has allowed Samson to score 46 runs from 43 balls. Both Bolt and Bumrah have dismissed Samson twice.
