Pitch Report

A relatively high-scoring game is expected at the venue with dew also likely to come into play. The pacers should get help off the surface early on, keeping the batters on their toes. There isn't much turn on offer for the spinners, who will need to use the longer side of the ground to their advantage. Both teams will look to chase upon winning the toss, with 150-160 being par at the venue.

Today's RCB vs MI Dream11 Match Top Picks

Wicketkeeper

Quinton de Kock: Quinton de Kock returned to runscoring form with a fine fifty against the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in his previous outing. The South African also has a decent record in the UAE, which should hold him in good stead among the likes of Ishan Kishan and AB de Villiers.

Batsman

Virat Kohli: Virat Kohli comes into the game on the back of a decent knock against the Chennai Super Kings (CSK). However, he couldn't convert it into a big knock, which is something that he would be keen to do against a strong MI team today.

All-rounder

Wanindu Hasaranga: Yet to pick up a wicket in the IPL, Wanindu Hasaranga has impressed in patches with his leg-spin. Likened to Rashid Khan by many for his ability to outfox batters with a potent googly, Hasaranga can be banked upon to deliver against Mumbai in this fixture.

Bowler

Jasprit Bumrah: Jasprit Bumrah has picked up five wickets in two games in the UAE this IPL, with the Indian pacer continuing his fine from the England Test series. The pitch has enough on offer for the pacers, which should play into Bumrah's favor in this much-awaited clash.
