The host team comes into this match off a disappointing performance against the Gujarat Titans at their den in Ahmedabad, where their bowlers once again disappointed them. MI skipper Rohit Sharma, who is celebrating his birthday, will want to capitalise on the support of the home crowd and resume the winning ways. Rajasthan Royals, on the other hand, won a remarkable game at home to finish the season sweep of the four-time champion Chennai Super Kings, and they will be looking to increase their lead at the top of the standings.

MI are in need of a win if they are to keep up their optimistic playoff drive in the IPL 2023. The MI batting unit has performed admirably thus far in the season, with batters like Rohit Sharma, Ishan Kishan, Cameron Green, and Suryakumar Yadav amassing plenty of runs. However, MI’s bowlers have not been up to par, particularly in the death bowling department, as they have given up a lot of runs that have resulted in losses, which has neutralised their batting effort.
On the other side, despite a decline form over the previous few games, the Royals have emerged as one of the title favourites. The first-year IPL champions returned to winning ways against the Chennai Super Kings with a commanding performance. The majority of the runs have been scored by the RR batting, which is led by Jos Buttler and Yashasvi Jaiswal. While opponents’ players have been annihilated by bowlers like Yuzvendra Chahal, Sandeep Sharma and Ravichandran Ashwin.
