The Mumbai Indians have a win and are facing a side that has struggled to get going. Bengaluru are missing out on the bowling front once more and their batting has been heavily reliant on one man, Virat Kohli. The Mumbai Indians will know that they have batting line-up to put pressure on the weak bowing line-up of Bengaluru but their bowling line-up may have challenges of its own against Virat Kohli in what is a pretty interesting encounter.

MI vs RCB Key Players

Suryakumar Yadav

Suryakumar Yadav’s comeback lasted two balls. He knows though that there is a relatively light bowling attack against him now and will be waiting to get that first run to help him find his explosive self again.

Glenn Maxwell

The heat is on for Glenn Maxwell. He has had a good run with the Royal Challengers but is struggling to make an impact this season. His last year has been really good as well and Maxwell too will know that he is one good innings away from hitting strong form.
