Mumbai Indians after losing to Delhi Capitals unexpectedly at the Brabourne Stadium (Day game) will be facing Rajasthan at DY Patil Stadium again in a day game (3:30 PM). RR have been high on confidence after defeating Hyderabad by a big margin of 61 runs. Rajasthan in past have dominated Mumbai in IPL over the years and they will look to continue their momentum again considering the side they have. RR's bowling attack comprising of Chahal, Ashwin, Boult and Prasidh Krishna will definitely challenge the Mumbai batting attack, especially Boult vs MI will be competition to look forward to.

For Mumbai, Suryakumar Yadav is expected to make a comeback into the XI, but their bowling looks like a concern this season. Mumbai's best bowler Bumrah was seen getting smacked in the previous game by Lalit Yadav and Axar Patel which might dent their team's confidence even more. Rajasthan top heavy batting which comprises of Buttler, Samson, Jaiswal and Padikkal could be a big threat to MI. Hetmyer's finishing skills with the bat is also expected to play a key role for Rajasthan franchise.
