MI vs RCB Preview: Mumbai Indians (MI) will take on the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in one of the most anticipated clashes of this season’s Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024.
Four losses in five matches have not only vindicated how poor RCB were in the last IPL auction, but they have also missed the opportunity to make it up with a better on-field showing.
However, there is nothing much to separate the two teams as RCB are just a rung below MI in the points table at the ninth position with MI winning just one (29-run victory over Delhi Capitals) out of their four games so far.
For a side which invariably starts IPL with a few losses, MI know their way around these lanes. A contest against a floundering RCB could bring about their second win on the trot and some further boost in confidence, before facing defending champions Chennai Super Kings.
