IPL 2021: MI vs RR Match 24 Live Updates: De Kock-Krunal partnership keeps Mumbai Indians in control

New Delhi, April 29: Defending champions Mumbai Indians would look for a change in their fortune with the change of venue as they take on Rajasthan Royals in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 on Thursday (April 29).

The Rohit Sharma-led side will have its task cut out against Rajasthan Royals - who surprisingly have a good win record against MI in the last three years. The past record and the fact that Rajasthan are coming from a win would certainly be on the minds of MI players.

Mumbai are coming after suffering back-to-back two defeats in the Chennai leg and would be eager to make amends to start afresh at Feroz Shah Kotla Stadium.

Sanju Samson, the losing captain: Surely, a few runs short, maybe around 20-25 runs short. We were going on nicely (with the bat), but didn't finish well. The bowlers have been doing their job well, but as batsmen, we need to get them a good score to defend. It was a good wicket, the ball was coming on nicely and they (MI) batted really well, as a team, we will need to score more runs as a batting group. Trust yourself, play positive and fearless cricket - that's all one should do.

Led by young Sanju Samson, Rajasthan have been struggling with their form in the tournament. The team has won two out of five games and face the five-time champions in their next game. However, they are coming from a clinical 6-wicket over Kolkata Knight Riders. That will would give them a lot of confidence but defeating Mumbai would require a combined team effort from the Men In Pink.

The head-to-head between the two teams is interesting as both the teams have won an equal number of contests. Out of 23 matches played between these two teams, 11 have resulted in a winning cause and they've lost as many. Since IPL 2018, the Royals have defeated Mumbai in 5 games out of 6 and captain Samson would be looking to take inspiration from this record when he walks into the middle against MI.
