• Time – 7:30 PM IST

RCB vs MI Match Preview:

Bangalore's middle order isn't performing and the arrival of Glenn Maxwell will be a big boost for them. Maxwell's spin-hitting ability will be a big boon in the middle overs. Dinesh Karthik has been the key for RCB in finishing the inning. 

Harshal Patel is going to be a very important factor as usual. Wanindu Hasaranga will also play a crucial role in the middle overs. 

MI's batting is working around three players - Ishan Kishan, Suryakumar Yadav, and Tilak Verma. These three will once again play a crucial role. Dewald Brevis will be the player to watch out for. 

MI's bowling could see a few changes with either Finn Allen or Riley Meredith coming in place of Daniel Sams. Jaydev Unadkat could come into the playing XI as well.
