Pitch Report

The match between MI and RR is set to take place in Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur. It is a good surface which is sportive in nature. Both pacers and spinners get assistance from the surface. The Pacers can get some early wing. Spinners can make use of the longer boundaries and vary lengths accordingly. Batters need to make the best use of powerplay and hold one end up to provide better finishing.

Player Picks

9
C

Riyan Parag RR | BAT

Riyan Parag has been one of the best batters in the ongoing season. The youngster has managed to deliver the goods for his side with the bat. In the last game, the right-handed batter scored 34 runs in 14 balls which helped RR in the run chase against KKR.

8.5
C

Sanju Samson RR | WK

Sanju Samson has been good as a skipper, as a batter, and as a wicketkeeper. With the bat, he has added some crucial runs in the top order. As a WK, he has claimed some terrific catches. As a skipper, he has made some interesting decisions.

9
C

Jos Buttler RR | WK

Jos Buttler smashed an unbeaten hundred and won the game for RR against MI. It was necessary for both Buttler and RR given his mediocre run in the tournament so far. Buttler has a good record against MI, which makes him a top contender.

9

Suryakumar Yadav MI | BAT

Suryakumar Yadav was the highest run-scorer for MI in the last game against PBKS. On a tricky wicket to bat on, Yadav took risks as soon as he entered the middle. As the pitch got slower, he held up one end. Jaipur is likely to be a similar wicket.

8.5

Yuzvendra Chahal RR | BOWL

Yuzvendra Chahal is a wicket-taking bowler. At home, he has a brilliant record. On his night, Chahal can win the matches for his side singlehandedly. When in rhythm, it is difficult to hit him. Hence, Chahal becomes a key player in the fantasy teams.

9

Jasprit Bumrah MI | BOWL

Jasprit Bumrah was the player of the match against PBKS. With his spell of 3/21, Bumrah changed the match for MI. On a wicket that got better to bat on, Jasprit held pressure intact with an economical spell. He has been the best bowler of the season.

8

Mohammad Nabi MI | ALL

Mohammad Nabi is a handy bowler. His performances depend on how the captain uses his caliber. Nabi can play fiery cameos lower down the order. With the ball,m he can deliver economical spells. In the outfield, he can take some stunning catches.

8.5

Shreyas Gopal MI | ALL

Shreyas Gopal has the knack of taking wicktes. The leg-spinner has been a fine addition for MI in the last few games. As the match is in Jaipur, his presence becomes essential. Gopal played a lot at the venue when he was with RR from 2018 to 2020.

8.5

Kuldeep Sen RR | BAT

Kuldeep Sen is a wicket-taker. In the middle-overs phase, he makes good use of his change of pace. If required, he can take the new ball and swing it. The right-arm pacer is better used in the first 16 overs, as death bowling is not his expertise.

Avoid Having These Players In Your Fantasy Sports Team

8

Romario Shepherd

MI | ALL

Romario Shepherd comes to bat lower down the order at number 8. By then, the opportunity to score runs would be less. With the ball, he is not a wicket-taker and often goes expensive. Hence, it is better not to have him in the side against RR.

9

Akash Mandwaal

MI | BOWL

Akash Madhwal has not bowled well barring the game against RR. Since then, Madhwal has failed to deliver with accuracy. The emerging pacer missed the yorkers and ended up delivering either in the slot or a full toss. Akash needs to regain his form.

6

Dhruv Jurel

RR | WK

Dhruv Jurel has been woefully out of form in the ongoing season. The emerging batter has not played a significant knock with the bat so far. After impressing everyone in the IPL 2023 and the Test series against England, Jurel has fallen off the radar.
