Royal Challengers Bangalore vs Mumbai Indians Preview


The Royal Challengers Bangalore and Mumbai Indians are set to clash heads on Monday when they battle it out at the Dubai International Stadium.

Three losses in the Royal Challengers previous four matches have ruined their promising start to the season, with the result against the Super Kings on Saturday (AEST) so much more important in the lead up to this match on Monday (AEST).

There’s no question that Simon Katich’s side has the batting prowess, but their bowling attack has been formidable this season. Harshal Patel’s swing and Rahul Chahar’s spin has caused batsmen some troubles, and on a slow Dubai pitch, they could prove influential again.

Meanwhile, the Mumbai Indians were humbled in their seven-wicket defeat against the Knight Riders last Friday. They struggled to create meaningful chances against the Kolkata batting attack despite having the better team on paper. However, Jasprit Bumrah continued his good campaign with the only three wickets for his side.

Their loss has left them on eight points in sixth and a game behind the Rajasthan Royals in fifth. A win here against the third placed Bangalore’s would keep the playoff race very interesting.

Despite Mumbai sitting in the bottom three, it still has the makings of a classic between these two sides. However, I think the Royal Challengers have the batting depth to deal with the Mumbai bowling attack.
