Mumbai Indians vs Rajasthan Royals Chance of Winning
Mumbai Indians have stuttered this season as they have been second best in all departments in the first two matches. In the opening game, MI batsmen failed to show up against Gujarat Titans as they lost the game by six runs. In the last game, MI conceded 277 runs against Sunrisers Hyderabad as they lost the game by 31 runs.
On the other hand, Rajasthan Royals could not have hoped for a better start this season as they registered back to back wins at home against Lucknow Super Giants and Delhi Capitals. Last season RR lost four of the five games at home hence the results in the first two games would have been a big boost for them. As per our calculations, MI are favourites in the upcoming game.
- Mumbai Indians’ chances of winning - 55%
- Rajasthan Royals’ chances of winning - 45%

Mumbai Indians vs Rajasthan Royals Prediction & Betting Tips 2023
Even though Mumbai Indians have struggled thus far, that doesn’t change the fact MI’s batting prowess is their biggest strength this season. In the last game even though SRH scored 277, MI batted their way into the game and eventually lost the game by mere 31 runs. Considering the fact they are playing at home, we believe they would hit more sixes than Rajasthan Royals.
Jos Buttler has struggled thus far in this tournament. Buttler headed into this tournament after a decent showing in SAT20 but has failed to replicate his form so far in this campaign. So far, in the two games he has scored 11 in both matches which makes us believe he would struggle to score well in the upcoming game.

Mumbai Indians vs Rajasthan Royals Betting Odds
Mumbai Indians to have a better opening partnership than Rajasthan Royals
Rajasthan Royals and Mumbai Indians have had a contrasting start to the campaign, Rajasthan Royals have been perfect thus far as they have beaten Lucknow Super Giants and Delhi Capitals in the first two matches. Even though they have dominated both the games, their openers have struggled to get going this season as they have managed an opening stand of 13 and 9 thus far. On the other hand, Mumbai Indians have struggled thus far as they have failed to post a single point in the first two matches. Their batting performance in the last game against SRH should have given them some hope, MI had an opening stand of 56 runs in the last game. We believe Mumbai Indians would have a better opening partnership in the upcoming game against Rajasthan Royals.

Mumbai Indians vs Rajasthan Royals Top Batters
Rohit Sharma to be Mumbai Indians’s top batter
Once again we are going to stick with Rohit Sharma in the upcoming game, he was brilliant once again in the last game against Sunrisers Hyderabad as he provided a brilliant start to MI. So far in the first two games, Sharma has looked great and we expect him to score big at home which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
Riyan Parag to be Rajasthan Royals’ top batter
This was supposed to be a breakthrough season for Riyan Parag and considering his form in the first two matches he hasn’t disappointed. Parag has been the best batsmen for RR this season as he scored 43 off 29 balls in the first game and in the last match he scored 84 off 45 balls which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
Mumbai Indians vs Rajasthan Royals Top Bowlers
Jasprit Bumrah to be Mumbai Indians’ top bowler
Mumbai bowlers had a torrid outing in the last game against Sunrisers Hyderabad as their conceded 277 runs which is the highest score in IPL history. In a high scoring game Jasprit Bumrah still managed to hold his own as he was the most economical bowler in the game. Bumrah has already showcased his class in the opening game and we expect him to do so once again which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
Yuzvendra Chahal to be Rajasthan Royals’ top bowler
We are going to stick with Yuzvendra Chahal once again as he was excellent in the last match against Delhi Capitals. He ended up with important wickets and made a real difference in the game as he ended up with 2/19 and had the best bowling figures in the match which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
