Mumbai Indians Vs Rajasthan Royals Match Scorecard is one of the best factor while taking decision for the winning prediction of MI and RR.
Gerald Coetzee to Riyan Parag, SIX; length ball hit to off stump by Riyan which slashed over the keeper for a Wankhede boundary – this youngster has made two consecutive fifties! A huge turn in his career. Sanju Samson has also come a long way after an inconsistent start.
Mumbai Indians vs Rajasthan Royals Match Scorecard
RR maintained their unbeaten home record and moved into first place on the points table with a thrilling six wicket win against MI with one ball remaining. Riyan Parag once again shone with an unbeaten 84 off just 45 balls as they chased down their target easily. Nandre Burger and Yuzvendra Chahal each took two wickets while Avesh Khan produced an outstanding final over.
Thushara delivers a short first over and Jaiswal hits it towards mid on for one run before driving it towards long off for four. On his third try he pushes it further towards long off for four. Pushing it toward long off yielded yet another four boundary which was pulled past keeper for six. Two doubles came his way before Jaiswal got onto strike to strike out through point and make his century with bat and ball!
Ishan Kishan opens for Rajasthan Royals and is caught off the first ball of their over, before Rohit Sharma slaps and skyes a ball to deep mid on where Hetmyer takes a superb catch before Hetmyer hits a six over long off as they move to 125/2 in 19 overs – their third consecutive win, moving ahead of Delhi Capitals by nine points while Mumbai Indians have only managed three victories so far this season.
Mumbai Indians won the toss and elected to bowl.
Mumbai Indians won the toss and elected to bowl first at home against Rajasthan Royals, making two changes with Nathan Coulter-Nile and Jayant Yadav taking their places – replacing Hardik Pandya and James Pattinson respectively.
Decision to leave Jaiswal out proved costly as RR cruised to an easy win with ease. After an insipid start in the powerplay, Boult struck three times while Chahal collected two wickets for RR to put them in a great position for victory. Jaiswal continued his slow start but his partnership with Parag was instrumental in getting them home without further issue.
Jos Buttler of Rajasthan contributed seven runs. Parag Shah led their attack with 7 runs; perhaps this season will mark his transformation!
Gerald Coetzee to Riyan Parag, FOUR; Parag attempts a hook shot, which results in an edge over the keeper’s head for a boundary in short Wankhede boundaries. Back-to-back fifties for Parag, who is looking in great form at this point in time.
That is all for now; we will provide more updates from M Chinnaswamy Stadium in the coming days. Until then, take care and cheers! Sagar Chawla has signed off. Have a good night! See you tomorrow.
Mumbai Indians scored 125 runs in 20 overs.
Hardik Pandya and Tilak Varma powered MI to 125/9 by sharing unbeaten partnerships of 37 and 34 runs respectively, but their home team fell apart at crucial moments, losing four wickets before reaching their target.
RCB were in trouble, yet were denied an opportunity to post a big total against their home fans thanks to an outstanding spell from Trent Boult and Yuzvendra Chahal – with Boult taking three wickets at an average of 3.22 runs per over and Chahal taking two more himself while Nandre Burger also contributed by taking two wickets himself.
Continued the rout with Dhoni’s 16-ball 30 cameo and Faf du Plessis’ aggressive 44 boosting CSK to 183/5 at M. A. Chidambaram Stadium, Chepauk in their 20 overs at M.A. Chidambaram Stadium – this being second only in IPL history behind SunRisers against RCB earlier in 2018.
RR suffered an inauspicious start but Buttler and Jos Samson rescued the visitors by sharing an unbroken 48-run stand for the fourth wicket, however Buttler was eventually caught at long-on off Chahal as he attempted to smash it over the stands in search of fours while Samson chopped onto his stumps against Madhwal to see his skipper out in 12 runs off 10 balls.
Rajasthan Royals won the toss and elected to bat.
Rajasthan Royals have won their first match since suffering a heavy defeat against Kolkata Knight Riders and have moved up into fifth place with six wins and two losses. Now on a roll, they look forward to taking on Delhi Capitals – who started off poorly but have since found their feet.
The pitch should provide batsmen with plenty of grass on its surface and very little dew or moisture; however, due to being played during a day game and in extreme heat and humidity conditions it could prove challenging for visitors.
Ajinkya Rahane’s side had struggled for early wickets before Kartik Sharma made an unbeaten 62-ball half century to take them from 8/2 in the powerplay to 161/9 after 20 overs.
England batsman Joe Root will make his IPL debut for RR in Jaipur. He will replace Jos Buttler at number four, with Rovman Powell coming back into play as an impact replacement – this time for an extended stint.
RR will field an attack of Sanju Samson, Jos Buttler, Abhijeet Tomar, Dhruv Jaiswal, Riyan Parag, Nandre Burger and Shubham Dubey as part of its bowling attack. Unfortunately they will miss captain Ajinkya Rahane and spinner Ishwar Pandey but in their stead Jake Fraser-McGurk and Prithvi Shaw will play important roles. Additionally there will also be experienced players such as Mohammad Siraj Axar Patel Abishek Porel Mukesh Kumar Kuldeep Yadav and Khaleel Ahmed among them.
Mumbai Indians scored 126 runs in 20 overs.
Mumbai Indians made a tentative start in their chase and lost three wickets early, but Hardik Pandya and Tilak Varma held firm to help guide the home side to an acceptable total of 126-9 in 20 overs.
New Zealand pace bowler Trent Boult then cast a magnificent spell over Mumbai Indians’ innings, moving the ball from both sides and taking down Rohit Sharma, Naman Dhir and Dewald Brevis for first-ball ducks – ultimately helping reduce them to 14-3 in three overs.
And in his next over, he added three more wickets as he removed Hetmyer, Praveen Kumar and Steyn. That left the Sunrisers reeling at 77-4 with only Shikhar Dhawan and David Warner unaffected by wicket loss.
Tim David takes an exceptional catch at backward point and now Bangalore are six wickets down.
Ishan Kishan struck two maximums off Trent Boult deliveries to put his side closer to reaching a respectable total.
Rajasthan Royals won the toss and elected to bowl.
Rajasthan Royals (RR), following their defeat to Kolkata Knight Riders in Qualifier 1 of the Indian Premier League 2024, hope to turn things around against Royal Challengers Bengal (RCB) in Eliminator 1. RR made one switch – substituting Nandre Burger for Sandeep Sharma who was not 100% fit at that point – who can return later.
The visitors won the toss and elected to bowl first in order to utilize their best bowlers. Royal Challengers openers Shimron Hetmyer and Yashasvi Jaiswal had endured an unimpressive start this season but both appeared in great form today by scoring fifties each.
Jaiswal chipped one straight to covers off Nandre Burger but otherwise appeared in good form, as he played an integral part in most RR runs as they chased down their target with four overs remaining. Jaiswal has really come into his own this season by taking responsibility and showing maturity at the top of their order.
Sanju Samson of RR was pleased with his team’s performance, particularly how the bowlers put themselves into good positions. He noted how this win gives his side confidence as they look towards the rest of the tournament, particularly by how young people have taken responsibility and finished games successfully. Since taking charge at half way, they have won three matches out of eight matches and boast second best batting average.
