MI vs RCB: Starting gear of both teams!
Mumbai Indians start slow in the IPL and they will look to change that starting with the first game this season. They have lost all their 8 opening games since 2013. Royal Challengers Bangalore will look to exploit this weakness. They have the problem of their own. The graphs of these two teams are exactly contrasting. MI lose at the start but end the tournament strongly while RCB start decently but lose momentum at the end. RCB will look to dominate MI in the first match and hence start favourites. This makes them a slight favourite heading into the first game
