IPL 2023 MI Vs RR: Date, Time, Venue, Head-To-Head, Pitch Report, Dream11 Prediction, Probable Playing 11 And Squads: The 2023 season of the Indian Premier League is expected to be historic. On Sunday, April 30, a game between the Mumbai Indians (MI) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) will mark the 1000th game of the tournament. The Wankhede stadium will host the game.

In honor of the landmark 1000th IPL game, the BCCI has organized a minor party. The cash-rich T20 league, which Lalit Modi conceptualized and which has revolutionized the sport and probably all sports in India, began 15 years ago in 2008.

MI is coming off a heart-breaking loss to the Gujarat Titans and is currently ranked eighth in the points table, with 6 points. On the day of the match, Rohit Sharma, the captain of MI, will be celebrating his 36th birthday. MI would undoubtedly look to win this game to enhance his place in the points table, and it would also be an excellent gift for the captain.

The Rajasthan Royals are brimming with confidence. They are now on 2nd position in the points table after defeating CSK in the last match. RR has a well-balanced playing 11 that helps them win every game. Sanju Samson would also like to win this game and go to the Playoffs.

MI Vs RR Head-To-Head Record

MI and RR have played a total of 29 games.  Mumbai Indians have 15 wins, while RR have 13 wins. There was no winner in one of their matches. These statistics show that neither the Royals nor the Indians have ever defeated the other, demonstrating that both teams have been evenly matched over the years.

MI Vs RR Pitch Report

Because the dimensions are small and the pitch at Wankhede has red soil, it is batting-friendly and encourages batters to score many boundaries. The previous several games have seen batsmen struggle against fast bowlers, proving that the surface is also helpful to bowlers, albeit generally speaking, it favors medium pacers.

This stadium often sees a lot of scoring, and the surface will be great for batting. Both sides will favour chasing as there could be dew later in the game, and the pacers may receive some assistance under the lights.

IPL 2023 MI Vs RR Prediction

MI and Rajasthan are tight contenders, making it difficult to determine who would win. However, in the current scenario, RR is a much stronger team that is performing exceptionally well. RR has a well-balanced playing 11 that helps them win. However, Mumbai is currently unstable. Mumbai’s lone advantage against RR is that they are playing at their home stadium. Given the current situation, RR has a better chance of winning.
