Indian Premier League 2023: Mumbai Indians vs Rajathan Royals in Mumbai on April 30
Misfiring Mumbai Indians will have to bring their 'A-game' to the show in order to stop Rajasthan Royals' juggernaut when the two teams meet in an Indian Premier League match in Mumbai on April 30.
RR are currently at the top of the table with some incredible performances — for example their one-sided routing of Chennai Super Kings.
Despite losing two of their last three matches, the Sanju Samson-led side is in prime form and has been delivering in all departments of the game.
On the other hand, there are serious concerns for MI, especially their death bowling, which was responsible for their last two defeats in high-scoring games.
MI bowlers gave away a whopping 96 runs in the last 30 balls to allow Punjab Kings to run away with the match here at the Wankhede Stadium last weekend.
If that was not enough, MI conceded 70 runs off the last 24 balls against defending champions Gujarat Titans.
MI will need more from their top-order but the task on Sunday night will be to put a unified front, given that RR's batting has been consistent enough.
