RR vs MI Head to Head
Rajasthan Royals vs Mumbai Indians Head To Head Records Preview:
RR vs MI Head to Head: The Sanju Samson-led Rajasthan Royals have looked dominant this season. All the good work done at the auction table has been accelerated with a good show on the field too. They look to establish their top-of-the-table credentials when they take on Mumbai Indians.
The contest details:
RR, the inaugural champions will face off against 5-time champions, MI. IPL 2022 has been a season of great contrasts for both of these sides. RR sits pretty at second position in the points table. MI on the other hand is yet to win a game post 8 matches this season. RR got the better of MI the first time these two sides met earlier this season. MI will want to not just seek revenge but also post a win when they face RR in game 44 of IPL 2022 at the DY Patil stadium in Mumbai.
Current Form: Rajasthan Royals
They are the only team apart from Gujarat Titans who are yet to lose more than 2 games despite playing 8 matches. Their 12 points have given them good breathing space over others in the points table. The Royals are fresh from their win over RCB. RR defending a score of 140 odd became the first team to defend a score under 150 this season. They are high on confidence coming into this game. RR is yet to be tested while chasing a score. Therein lies an opportunity for their opponent.
Current Form: Mumbai Indians
Nothing has gone right for the 5-time champions. They look like a pale shadow of their champion self. MI has the unwanted record of losing their first eight games. They can’t be faulted for not trying different things. But much of MI’s decision-making has been absurd. The move behind not playing Tim David after buying him for INR 8 crores makes little sense. MI needs its stars to start firing. A win to start with is all they will want.
