The Mumbai Indians will be tipped to win when they play the Royal Challengers Bengaluru. The hosts for the evening would benefit by playing at home, even though they had lost two of their previous three games. The Hardik Pandya-led team overcame KKR earlier in the season at Wankhede Stadium, ending their losing streak in their first game of the season. As he takes on the same team that he made his debut against, Jasprit Bumrah, who has not taken a wicket this season, would like to make an impression.
