IPL2014: 27th match – Mumbai Indians v Royal Challengers Bangalore, May 6, 2014

Match Preview

In their last meeting in Dubai, Royal Challengers Bangalore stomped all over an unsure Mumbai Indians, restricting the latter to 115 and then chasing it down with seven wickets to spare, despite being reduced to 17 for 3.

Both teams will meet on Tuesday at the Wankhede with similar wins in their previous games, wins that could easily have turned into defeats had it not been for individual performances and the teams are similar on many other counts, too. Mumbai and Royal Challengers have powerful line-ups on paper, but that potential has been inconsistent on the field, save for the odd knocks from their stars.

Bowlers from both sides have, given the opportunity, done well but have also found themselves defending a few sub-par totals. Royal Challengers bowlers, however, have had a better run than Mumbai, with the presence of genuine quicks in Mitchell Starc and Varun Aaron and a legspinner in Yuzvendra Chahal.

PunterPolls Prediction

Mumbai Indian's has finally open their account by registering a win against the unbeaten Punjab in their last game. RCB is in slightly better position as they have won 50% of their matches (3/6). Banglore top order is struggling and its been trend to loose early 3 wickets for them and if this will happen today, we can bet that they are not going to recover as they did in the last few matches.

So if we look at the graph for both teams recent performances, MI are getting slightly better as compare to RCB. Also what we have noticed is both teams get under pressure while chasing, so this is going to be a close encounter. Team we are supporting today is RCB as Kohli is due and they have some very good batsmen to put descent total and to chase down and average total. Kohli captaincy is also better then Rohit's.
