Bet on MI vs RCB: Prediction, cricket betting tips and odds for Mumbai Indians and Royal Challengers Bangalore IPL match today
Mumbai Indians take on Royal Challengers Bangalore in a high-profile IPL 2023 clash at the Wankhede Stadium on Tuesday. With both teams evenly poised on 10 points from 10 games, this contest gains extra significance in the race for the playoff spots.
Match odds:
- MI win: 1.93
- RCB win: 1.86
When: Tuesday, May 9, 2023 at 19:30 IST
Where: Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai
MI vs RCB Teams:
- Rohit Sharma‘s form: The MI skipper has had a forgettable season so far with just 184 runs in 10 games. His team relies heavily on him and will hope he finds form in a crunch game like this. If Rohit gets going, MI will be hard to stop.
- Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis: RCB’s top order has been in sublime touch. Kohli and Du Plessis, in particular, have scored runs for fun against MI. They have 9 fifties between them at the Wankhede and will look to continue that. Getting them out early will be key for MI.
- Impact of Hazlewood: Josh Hazlewood has given RCB’s bowling real bite. He has combined well with Siraj and Hasaranga. However, he will have his task cut out on a pitch like Wankhede against the likes of Rohit, Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Yadav. How Hazlewood bowls could determine the outcome.
- MI’s home advantage: MI have an exceptional record at the Wankhede over the years. The home crowd will be firmly behind them and the familiar conditions suit their style of play. RCB will have to overcome that significant challenge.
MI vs RCB Prediction:
This game could come down to fine margins. While RCB have the batting might, MI’s home advantage and superior head-to-head record will give them the edge. Rohit finding form at the right time could be a telling factor. Prediction: Mumbai Indians to win.
