The excitement is at its peak as the RCB team will play their home game at Chinnaswamy stadium after three long years. What’s more fascinating is the team that RCB is up against this time. Mumbai Indians. The five-time champions with a star-studded lineup. Nothing gets bigger than this for cricket folklore.

Pitch Report

Chinnaswamy stadium is known as batting paradise as the pitch is flatter and the boundary lines are comparatively smaller than any other venue. High scoring can always be expected here.

What to Expect?

In Bangalore, the bowling team that always restricts the powerplay runs in this venue has been at the top. This match will be high-octane entertainment with Virat, Faf, Maxwell, DK, Rohit, and SKY in the batting lineups.

Probable Playing XIs

RCB Possible XI:

Faf du Plessis, Anuj Rawat Virat Kohli, Mahipal Lomror, Glenn Maxwell, Dinesh Karthik, Shahbaz Ahmed, David Willey, Akash Deep, Mohammed Siraj, Reece Topley

MI Possible XI:

Rohit Sharma, Ishan Kishan,Suryakumar Yadav,Tilak Verma, Cameron Green, Tim David, Hrithik Shokeen, Jofra Archer, Kumar Kartikeya, Arshad Khan, Jason Behrendorff.

Fantasy Picks for the RCB vs MI game.

Captain : Faf Du Plessis

Faf is someone who can be highly productive once he comes acrossbthe powerplay overs. Big innings player and he has done it a lot of time.

Vice Captain : Suryakumar Yadav

SKY hasn’t been in a good touch in the last three international games. So it is high time for the demon inside him to wakeup. He can’t be quite for a long time and he will definitely show up with a bang in this opening game.

Batsmen : Faf Du Plessis, V Kohli, S Yadav, T Varma, T David.

Based in the Banglore wicket, we have gone with five batters. Two RCB top order batters and the middle order batters S Yadav, T David and T Varma of MI, who will get optine opportunity in the middle.

Wicketkeepers : Ishan Kishan

Ishan Kishan is the obvious option for the WK since he opens the batting for MI and we all know what he is capable of.

All rounders : G Maxwell, C Green

All rounders have the huge roles in these kind of wickets that favors batting. A little help with the ball will make a great difference for their side. In that sense, G Maxwell and C Green are perfect pick for this game.

Bowlers: H Patel, M Siraj, J Archer

All three bowlers are the strike bowlers of their respective teams. You cannot pick above them for their opening game of the season.
