IPL 2022: RR vs MI Dream11 Prediction, Fantasy Tips, Possible Playing 11, Match Prediction

Mumbai, April 28: Rajasthan Royals will take on Mumbai Indians in match number 44 on Saturday (April 30) at DY Patil Stadium. The Sanju Samson-led RR side is placed second in the points table with six wins in 8 games and has a healthy net run rate of 0.561.

Rohit Sharma-led Mumbai Indians have endured the worst of seasons so far as the five-time champions are winless in eight games. They will be looking to taste their first win of the season and what better way than defeating a side which looks set to make it to the playoffs.

MI were badly bruised and battered against Lucknow Super Giants in the previous game which they lost by a margin of 36 runs. Chasing a sub-par 169 in front of their home crowd at Wankhede Stadium, MI batters once again made a mess of it and were restricted to 132 for 8 in the stipulated 20 overs. MI's batting and bowling have disappointed them big time and they need to plug the gaping holes in the remaining fixtures.

RR, on the other hand, have been a team to beat. They are on a three-match winning streak and would be aiming to extend it to four against beleaguered Mumbai Indians. In their previous game, the Royals defeated Royal Challengers Bangalore by 29 runs in a low scoring game. They ended up defending the lowest total (144/8) of this edition by restricting RCB to 115, courtesy of Riyan Parag's gritty fifty and sensational bowling performance.
