While RR dominated in their first game, MI had the same old story of not winning the first game of the IPL. Two teams with a very different start to the tournament go head to head in the ninth game of the tournament.

Mumbai has a habit of growing in the tournament, they often start slow and then go on to have successful campaigns. After being beaten by Delhi in their first game by 4 wickets it will be interesting to see Mumbai's response. The top order looks solid for Mumbai having scored lots of runs last time around with Rohit and Ishan scoring 40 and 81 runs respectively. They will be looking to win small moments in the game like getting RR's top order out early will be key to Mumbai's success.
Mumbai Indians Predicted Lineup
Ishan Kishan (wk), Rohit Sharma (c), Suryakumar Yadav, Anmolpreet Singh, Kieron Pollard, Tim David, Daniel Sams, Murugan Ashwin, Jasprit Bumrah, Tymal Mills, Basil Thampi
Rajasthan Royals
Rajasthan ticked all their boxes in their first game against Sunrisers. They batted superbly and are the only team in the tournament till now who won the game by batting first. That also speaks volumes of the level of bowling attack they possess. They are an all-around side on paper but they do lack lower-order firepower which can come and haunt them in games to come.
Rajasthan Royals Predicted Lineup:
Yashasvi Jaiswal, Jos Buttler, Devdutt Padikkal, Sanju Samson (c & wk), Shimron Hetmyer, Riyan Parag, Ravichandran Ashwin, Nathan Coulter-Nile, Prasidh Krishna, Trent Boult, Yuzvendra Chahal
Expert betting tips
The team that utilizes the new ball well will have a significant impact on the game. With dew in the second innings, chasing will become slightly easier. Expect a nail-bitingly close finish to the game and with the score around 150-160 for each team. We are expecting RR to show their depth and win the game.
Prediction
- Rajasthan Royals to win for 2.20;
- W2 After First 6 Overs (2Way) for 2.00;
- Over Number 1 under 5.5 for 1.91
