The second match on a blockbuster Saturday is a game between the Royal Challengers Bangalore and the Mumbai Indians at the MCA stadium in Pune. RCB have had a good start to this season with two wins in the three games that they have played so far. Their only defeat came against KKR in the eighth game of the Tata IPL 2022.
On the other hand, we have MI who have lost all the three games that they have played so far. Rohit Sharma definitely has more firepower in them than this. They will be looking to bounce back after this disastrous start and get their season back on track.
