A very poor batting effort of RCB caused it to lose against SRH in the previous match between rivals. Nobody expected that defeat, which has shown a variability in RCB’s performance in IPL 2021. The thing is that RCB has struggled to get the most out of their batting lineup even after having so many resources at their disposal. Only Glenn Maxwell and Devdutt Padikkal are the real batsmen in good condition. We expect AB de Villiers to be promoted in this match. Glenn Maxwell might be a good choice to bet for the top batsman, while Virat Kohli has an excellent record against DC too. Yuzvendra Chahal and Harshal Patel are the leading bowlers of RCB, this they will be the biggest threat to DC.
If RR defeats KKR, then Mumbai desperately needs to win this game against Sunrisers Hyderabad to qualify. If, in turn, KKR wins, then Mumbai would not only need to win but also to improve its net run-rate so havenly that it is barely realistic. Also we do not want to make the mistake by taking SRH for granted either. They defeated RCB in their previous match and will try to get another victory against MI to end its IPL 2021 campaign.
