They will be hosting the Rajasthan Royals (RR), who have been performing outstandingly. The match between MI vs RR is scheduled for Monday, April 1st, and it promises to be an exciting game. The two teams have had different fortunes at the start of their respective campaigns. While the Rajasthan Royals have won both of their matches against the Lucknow Super Giants and the Delhi Capitals, the five-time champions, MI, have struggled this season. They lost their first game to the Gujarat Titans by six runs.
In their second game against Sunrisers Hyderabad, Mumbai Indians (MI) conceded an IPL-record of 277 runs in 20 overs, leading to their defeat in the match by 31 runs. This further added to their tough times. However, the recent head-to-head record between these two teams suggests that MI are the favourites, particularly MI vs RR at the Wankhede Stadium.
