RCB vs MI: Star Mumbai Indians (MI) all-rounder Hardik Pandya, who missed out on the first two opening matches of IPL 2021 phase 2 is very likely to make his return to the cricket field in tomorrow?s match against RCB believes Zaheer Khan, Director of Cricket Operations Mumbai Indians.



The title-holders didn?t have the best of the starts in the second leg of IPL 2021 as they lost two matches on the trot. The first loss came against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) while Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) sealed the show the other night to push Mumbai Indian further back in the points table.



Rohit Sharma and co missed the services of Hardik Pandya at the backend where quick runs were required. In spite of getting a solid start from opener Rohit Sharma and Quinton de Kock, the defending champions failed to post a daunting total and lost the match against KKR.



However, Zaheer Khan is optimistic about Hardik Pandya?s return in the Mumbai first XI in the match against RCB on Sunday.



?Well, we have a practice session today lined up, so after we finish the press conference we are going to go there and will take an informed call on that. He (Hardik) has started practicing, that?s what I can share with you guys right now.



So, we are hopeful that he (Hardik) will be fit and available. That?s what we are hoping,? the former India pacer said at the pre-match conference.

MI head coach Mahela Jayawardene on the opening day of the Vivo IPL 2021 phase 2 reasoned Hardik?s exclusion from the team was due to a slight niggle.



Zaheer said that all the teams in the IPL prefer smart preparations and knows how to stay on top of the opposite team.



?As you know, IPL is a very highly competitive tournament, so teams are always trying to have a one up on each other and they are getting smart in their preparation and these days every team is analysing every other team. So we have to stay at the top.



?The focus has always been on us, this team has been so successful because we have been focusing on our processes, our strengths and our players who are taking the field. And these are the players who have got us the championship, so we have that kind of approach and we have had quite a lot of good conversations around those things,? he said.



The second half of the IPL 2021 is all about pressure, the intensity of matches is high and MI knows how to bring the best in stressful situations, added Zaheer Khan.



The middle-order crisis of MI is not a concern for the franchise. Khan stressed that it is always about finding the right rhythm and once players get that they become unstoppable.



?But I don?t see it (the middle-order form) as a concern. It is just about finding that rhythm. You have seen in this format and this tournament particularly that once you get on a roll, you can win a couple of games together,? he said.

Rohit Sharma?s message to Mumbai Indians after 3 consecutive losses in IPL 2022: Mumbai Indians (MI) skipper Rohit Sharma has asked his IPL teammates to show ?some desperation and hunger? to seal their first win of the season following three successive losses in the opening three matches.



The five times IPL champions suffered three humiliating defeats in its first three matches of the ongoing Tata Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022. Mumbai began its losing streak against Delhi Capitals (DC) and it never stopped as they recently bowed down against Kolkata Knight Riders.



Sharma, who is known for his excellent captaincy, said that it's very crucial for them to have some hunger and desperation to win matches.&nbsp;



?We seriously cannot be blaming individuals here. It?s all of us. We win together, we lose together. That is as simple as that for me,? Rohit said in a passionate speech in the dressing room after the game against KKR.



?I think slight desperation is required from each one of us. That desperation is very, very, very important when we play, especially in this tournament. Because opposition are different, they come up with different plans all the time. We just need to stay ahead of them. We just need to stay on top of them.



?And the only way we can do that is by having that slight hunger and that desperation on the field ? with the bat, with the ball,? he added.



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
https://twitter.com/mipaltan/status/1512116995998638086
</div></figure>



The skipper admitted that as a whole team, they have been doing good work on the field, but urged everyone to seize the important moments of the game and let it not slip away from their hands.

?So we are doing some good things. All three games that we?ve played, we?ve done some really good things. It?s just that those little moments, and that indication, you know an individual has to understand, in that period of time when the game is happening,? he said.



?There will be an indication that ?this is the over?. What we do in that over, those little, little things ? that we need to try and squeeze that, and get it towards our side. Get that momentum towards our side.



Rohit indicated that these are still early stages in the ten-team tournament and they don?t need to put their head down in any case. Mumbai Indians still have 11 matches to make a turnaround in the cash-rich Tata IPL 2022.



Interestingly, Mumbai Indians, in the past, have successfully made a drastic turnaround in their performance. During IPL 2015, Mumbai lost its opening four, however, then went on to win the tournament.



Rohit Sharma-led Mumbai Indians (MI) will play its next IPL 2022 match against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) on April 9, Saturday.

<h2>IPL 2022: RCB vs MI Match Preview:</h2>



Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) will be aiming to exploit Mumbai INdians? poor show in the tournament and climb up in the points table as they take on the five-time winner tomorrow in the MCA International Stadium Pune.



RCB have effectively managed to win two matches out of three so far in the season. Currently, the franchise sits in the sixth position in the IPL 2022 points table with four points from three matches. A win against MI would elevate them to the top tiers of the ranking chart.



Meanwhile, Mumbai Indians will be aiming to fetch their first win of the tournament against RCB. Rohit Sharma and Co have failed to seize the crucial moments of the game previously in the IPL 2022, however, they will be looking to not repeat the same mistakes.

The MCA Pune offers a balanced surface for the game to proceed. It?s neither tilted in favour of the batters nor do the spinners feel comforted here. There will be enough help for both pacers and spinners if they hit the right areas. A good run chase of around 170 is what we expect.

The Royal Challengers Bangalore are all set to take on the Mumbai Indians in Match 18 of IPL 2022 at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium. Both the sides have had a very intense rivalry owing to which the fans have got to witness several wonderful Cricketing encounters between these two sides right since the beginning of the prestigious league.&nbsp;



The Royal Challengers will be full of confidence ahead of the game with two consecutive victories after their loss to Punjab in their opening match. Meanwhile on the other hand the Mumbai Indians who've had the worst possible start to their campaign will be looking to get their first points on the board this season. Both sides will be keen to make a mark anyways thereby trying to write another chapter in their historic rivalry.



<h2>RCB vs MI: Match Details</h2>



<ul><li>Royal Challengers Bangalore vs Mumbai Indians, Match 18, IPL 2022</li><li>Venue: Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Pune</li><li>Date &amp; Time: April 9, 7:30 PM</li></ul>



<h2>Royal Challengers Bangalore: Analysis</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/04/royalchallengersbangalore-1648990096-1.jpeg" alt="" class="wp-image-88250" width="999" height="668" /><figcaption>Royal Challengers Bangalore</figcaption></figure>



Gameplan: Bangalore who had to face a tough defeat against Punjab in their opening match have well and truly revived themselves from the early blow in their present campaign after consecutive victories against KKR and Rajasthan Royals thereon. They've made a strong statement with masterful performances both with the bat and with the ball.&nbsp;



Their players have fulfilled all their roles wonderfully well as the team has managed to put pressure on the opposition at regular intervals. The team management will be hoping to see another equally impressive display in tomorrow's game vs Mumbai Indians.



Possible Playing XI:- Faf du Plessis (c), Anuj Rawat, Virat Kohli, Glenn Maxwell, Dinesh Karthik (wk), David Willey, Wanindu Hasaranga, Shahbaz Ahmed, Harshal Patel, Mohammed Siraj, Akash Deep.



<h2>Mumbai Indians: Analysis</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/04/Mumbai-Indians-1.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-88251" width="1001" height="626" /><figcaption>Mumbai Indians</figcaption></figure>



Gameplan: Mumbai are in all sorts of trouble after another horrible start to their campaign much to the surprise of their fans and team management. They've lost all three of their opening games so far and shall be in further water if they fail to win tomorrow's encounter against the Royal Challengers. The team has developed several cracks in both the batting and bowling departments with the passage of time as the team hasn't been able to make any impact.&nbsp;



The batters have let down their side on several occasions thereby letting the opposition bowlers pounce on them. The bowlers too have made errors regularly leaking runs in the death especially letting the opposition batsmen choke them in a whistle. The team management will be hoping for a turnaround and an improved display from all the players so that the team gets back to winning ways as soon as possible.



Possible Playing XI:- Rohit Sharma (c), Ishan Kishan (wk), Dewald Brevis, Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Varma, Kieron Pollard, Fabian Allen, Murugan Ashwin, Jasprit Bumrah, Tymal Mills, Jaydev Unadkat



<h2>Probable Top performers</h2>



Probable best batsman of today?s match - Suryakumar Yadav



Suryakumar who joined the side after two matches had already been played displayed tremendous rhythm with a fighting half-century in his first match of this season. His gritty knock helped Mumbai post a respectable total on the board vs KKR. His presence in the middle order is of great relief to the team management and the dugout as well.&nbsp;



His batting performance bringing wins to his side on several occasions in the past seasons shows the amount of impact he's had over his team all the time. Thus his contribution will be of great use to the side. Thus we hope that he delivers another such brilliance with the bat in tomorrow's match vs RCB thereby getting his side out of a hole.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/04/Surya-1024x569.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-88252" /><figcaption>Suryakumar Yadav</figcaption></figure>



Probable best bowler of today?s match - Harshal Patel



RCB's brilliant performances in the last two games have been greatly due to the fine bowling spells of a certain Harshal Patel. The pacer's brilliance with the ball in several phases of the game has helped his team choke the opposition batters regularly thereby not letting them free their arms.&nbsp;



His economical death bowling has been indispensable to his side and has been a threat to the opposition. His incredible figures of 2/11 in full four overs against KKR are a treat to the watch for anybody. Hopefully, he adds on to his brilliant form with another classic bowling performance in tomorrow's game against Mumbai Indians.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/04/Harshal-Patel-1-1024x576.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-88253" /><figcaption>Harshal Patel</figcaption></figure>



<h2>RCB vs MI: Head to Head stats</h2>



The Mumbai Indians so far have a clear edge over the Royal Challengers Bangalore with 19 wins out of the 31 games played between the two sides in the history of IPL. The Royal Challengers Bangalore meanwhile have managed to win only 12 times. We hope to see another classic encounter between the two sides tomorrow thereby adding another page to this historic rivalry.



<ul><li>Total Matches Played - 29</li><li>Matches Won by MI - 17</li><li>Matches Won by RCB - 12</li></ul>



<h2>RCB vs MI: Winning Prediction</h2>



Probable winner of today?s match - Royal Challengers Bangalore



After a lot of detailed analysis made based on the batting, bowling strengths of both the sides, the present form of all players and a dozen other aspects related to both the teams, we've felt that the Royal Challengers Bangalore will be winning the match against a rusty Mumbai Indians' side.&nbsp;



The players have displayed tremendous form in the recent matches and are hands down going to be more effective than any other unit at the moment in the tournament. Their execution of plans and fantastic abilities to win a match in any situation makes them better than any other side as of now. Another brilliant display with the ball and bat will see them take another giant step further up into the points table thereby crushing down a weak Mumbai even deeper into trouble.

Rohit Sharma needs to provide quick start to MI in RCB vs MI match tonight: Aakash Chopra: Mumbai Indians (MI) skipper Rohit Sharma needs to unleash his best in order for Mumbai to thrash Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), tonight, feels former the cricketer turned commentator Aakash Chopra.



Notably, Rohit Sharma has failed to provide his team with a quickfire start in the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). The dashing cricketer has only managed to score 54 runs at a strike rate of 110 in three matches so far.



Aakash Chopra reckons that Saturday?s evening match between RCB and MI will be an acid test for Rohit Sharma as a batter. He needs to score big runs for the team so as to keep alive in the playoffs race.



"Cometh the hour, cometh the Rohit. This is your time. If you don't score runs even in this game, then it will be almost written in stone that Mumbai won't qualify for playoffs this year. This will mean that you yourself have finished your chances of qualifying,? said Aakash Chopra in his Youtube video.



He further added that if Rohit Sharma?s bat remains quiet then it?s impossible for Mumbai Indians (MI) to pass the playoff barrier.



?Without Rohit scoring runs, it (qualification) is simply not possible."

Mumbai Indians have lost three of their opening matches in succession. The franchise is currently standing in the penultimate position with three losses from three matches.?



<h2>Glenn Maxwell will score less than 20 runs: Aakash Chopra</h2>



The renowned commentator further predicted Glenn Maxwell?s score against Mumbai Indians tonight.&nbsp;



According to Aakash Chopra, RCB all-rounder Glenn Maxwell won?t be able to score anything in excess of 20 runs. He mentioned that only Jasprit Bumrah, Tymal Mills, and Murugan Ashwin will be given the responsibility to bowl against him.



"I think Maxwell will get dismissed at a score below 20. The only bowlers who will bowl to him will be Bumrah, Tymal Mills or Murugan Ashwin. Maybe Riley Meredith too if he plays in place of Daniel Sams."

"He will be rejoining the bubble before the next game against CSK on April 12."



Harshal Patel wasn?t retained by Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) ahead of the player auction 2022, however, the franchise gave it all to bag his services during the auction. Duo to aggressive bidding by RCB, Harshal Patel pocketed INR 10.75 crores at the mega auction.



The right arm death bowling specialist has already justified his price tag by providing RCB with steady death bowling. The pacer has been giving his team timely breakthroughs.



The pacer has uprooted six wickets in four Tata IPL 2022 games so far. Moreover, the speedster has maintained an impressive economy of 5.50.

Prithvi Shaw did not find any takers as the Mumbai batter went unsold in the IPL 2025 auction. Prithvi, who had a base price of Rs 75 lakh in the auction, was released by Delhi Capitals but he did not attract any bids from the ten franchises.
Delhi Capitals co-owner Parth Jindal has said that Prithvi Shaw is misunderstood in many ways but needed a 'jolt' in the form of the IPL 2025 Auction snub. Shaw has been part of the Delhi franchise since returning as the U-19 World Cup winning captain in 2018 and was bought for 1.2 Crores. Ahead of the 2022 auction, the Mumbai batter was retained by DC for Rs. 7.5 Crore but the past few seasons hasn't been great for the 25-year-old.
Speaking to Sports Today, Jindal said that Shaw is a great kid but needed a jolt to get up from his slumber. The DC co-owner feels that Shaw needs to work hard, get back the love of the game and get disciplined. Jindal ended by saying he hopes the Mumbai batter can return back to his best form
Delhi has backed Prithvi Shaw a lot. DC had hoped that he is a powerplay player and would hit 6 boundaries in one over. And he did that too. He hit Shivam Mavi for 6 fours in an over. He had a lot of potential and DC backed him to the hilt. We always thought that if Shaw manages to score, we will win. And we gave him a lot of chances," Kaif told on Jio Cinema.

Prithvi got a lot of chances and teams have now finally moved on, and it is a matter of embarrassment that he did not get a bid for Rs 75 lakh. Maybe now, he finally goes back to basics. Someone like Sarfaraz Khan got into the national team by scoring lots and lots of runs," he concluded.
In the 79 matches he has played, Shaw has scored 1892 runs at an average of 23.95 and a strike-rate of 147.47. He also scored 14 fifties during this time.

Prithvi shaw is just 25 and has lot of cricket left inside him ,the thing he need that to focus on his fitness and batting weakness. 
If the things goes well, not the next year but shaw will probably get chance to play in IPL this year too,if any team needs replacement for player ,he might be a good to get that place.

Prithvi Shaw Can Might Have Chance To Play IPL this Year ? | TATA IPL 2025

Prithvi Shaw After a successful start of his career getting set back and set back ,but the things is not over yet , Prithvi can be have to focus his fitness,the improved fitness can solve many things for him.

The MI Emirates produced a clinical display with the bat and the ball, handing the Abu Dhabi Knight Riders a 28-run defeat at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in the Match 14 of International League T20 (ILT20) 2025 on Tuesday, January 21.
MI Emirates got off to a strong start when they were asked to bat first, with openers Muhammad Waseem (38) and Kusal Perera making a strong stand at the top. The Sri Lankan Perera was the first to leave for 23 soon before the powerplay ended, following a 42-run partnership between the two players. Tom Banton entered, and he and Waseem made sure the MI Emirates maintained the run rate.
Banton was out for nine around the halfway point of the innings, while Waseem was out for 38 shortly after. Kieron Pollard replaced skipper Nicholas Pooran, but the seasoned right-hander struggled to get going and was eventually sent out for five by Ali Khan. With just over 6 overs remaining, the score was at 102/4.
Following Dan Mousley's dismissal for six, Romario Shepherd joined his skipper for the innings' last stretch. Jason Holder made a solid 49, but Pooran, who was hitting it cleanly, was almost at his half-century before he fell.
<img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202501/image_870x_6790c540e2f01.jpg" alt="">
Shepherd was given more attention in the last few overs as a result. In order to end with an undefeated 38 from 13 deliveries, the powerful right-hander then moved through the gears and hammered three maximums and four boundaries. After slowing down for a few overs in the middle, the MI Emirates eventually reached 186/6.

In second inning with openers Kyle Mayers and Andries Gous attacking the MI Emirates bowlers, the Abu Dhabi Knight Riders got off to a fast start. Before Dan Mousley ran him out with a brilliant bit of fielding, Mayers, who hit three sixes, scored 22 off 14 deliveries.
 
The MI Emirates seized control after that, finishing a 39-run partnership in the fourth over in second inning.
Following Joe Clarke's dismissal by Akeal Hosein for three, Romario Shepherd took out Michael-Kyle Pepper for five and Alishan Sharafu for four. The Abu Dhabi Knight Riders were 56/4 at the conclusion of a thrilling Powerplay.
The Abu Dhabi Knight Riders were further put under pressure after Waqar Salamkheil dismissed Laurie Evans for seven and Zahoor Khan caught Gous in the deep for thirty-four. Hopes of a recovery were raised when Sunil Narine and Andre Russell were called to the middle and embarked on a half-century stand.
But Narine was caught at cover for 13 in the 18th over, and David Willey was dismissed by Fazalhaq Farooqi in the 19th. The MI Emirates won easily, and Russell, who was still undefeated at 37 from 23 deliveries, was unable to lead his team across the finish line.

players like Romario Shepherd and Nicholas Pooran, the MI Emirates were able to close the gap on the top team to just two points.
Alzarri Joseph and Shepherd each took two wickets to thwart the Abu Dhabi Knight Riders' chase, while four of the MI Emirates' bowlers were in excellent form that evening.
In the whole match Romario Shepherd was the centre of attraction for the crowd with his bowling and batting, although the show was lasser but effective for MI Emirates to build pressure on the Abu Dhabi Knight Riders.

IND vs ENG: Former Indian cricketer Ravichandran Ashwin has announced his playing XI for the first T20I against England. The match between the two teams is all set to take place on Wednesday (22nd January) at the iconic Eden Gardens in Kolkata.
India and England will be locking horns with each other in the five-match T20I series. Both teams have a mixed combination of seniors and youngsters in the team, and with the way they have played of late, it's fair to say that it will be an exciting series to watch. 
Coming to the first T20I, Ravichandran Ashwin backed Sanju Samson and Abhishek Sharma to open the innings for the team. The duo has been doing a decent job together as an opener and would be hoping to carry on the same form in the upcoming first match. 
Sanju Samson was at his exceptional best in the T20Is last year as he slammed three tons. While on the other hand, Abhishek Sharma hasn't been able to maintain consistency. Hence the series will be extremely important for him with the bat. 
At No.3, Ravichandran Ashwin picked Tilak Varma. The left-hander oozed his class with the bat in the last series against South Africa. He batted at No.3 and slammed two back-to-back centuries. Skipper Suryakumar Yadav, as per Ashwin, will bat at No.4.
Hardik Pandya, Nitish Kumar Reddy and Axar Patel are the three all-rounders picked by Ravichandran Ashwin in his Indian XI for the first IND vs ENG T20I. They are expected to play a major role with the bat and ball. 
Rinku Singh also has been picked by Ravichandran Ashwin in his Indian XI for the first IND vs ENG team. He will be taking the role of finisher while there was no place for Ravi Bishnoi, who hard has put a foot wrong in his T20I career. Varun Chakravarthy will be there as per Ashwin. 
Mohammed Shami and Arshdeep Singh are the two fast bowlers picked by Ravichandran Ashwin for the first IND vs ENG XI. Shami will be making his comeback to the team after a year, while Arshdeep will be keen to make an impact.

Former Pakistan cricketer Basit Ali talked about the delay in the squad of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 for the Pakistan team. He said that it might look like they are scared of announcing the team, but it seems that they don't know what to do. 
The ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is around the corner and all the teams have named their squad for the tournament except the hosts Pakistan. The Men in Green are yet to announce the team even though the deadline of 12th January has already been surpassed by a long margin. 
India, Australia, England, South Africa, New Zealand, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan have all revealed their squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. This has made many speculate about why Pakistan isn't announcing their squad for the tournament, which is less than one month away. 
There have been several reports that Pakistan will be announcing their squad for the tournament soon. They are awaiting the fitness of a few players, and hence, they will soon be naming the team. Some reports also have revealed the players who will be playing, but an official announcement is yet to come. 
<h2>Pakistan kya darr gaya jo abhi tak team announce nahi ki? Nahi dara nahi hai. Samajh nahi aa rahi hai - Basit Ali </h2>
Amid all this, former Pakistan cricketer Basit Ali commented on the same, saying that no one knows what is happening. He speculated that they might be waiting for the fitness report on Saim Ayub. Speaking in a video posted on his YouTube channel, he explained: 
"Pakistan kya darr gaya jo abhi tak team announce nahi ki? Nahi dara nahi hai. Samajh nahi aa rahi hai -- karein to kya karein? (Is Pakistan scared to announce their squad? No, it isn't, just unsure what to do and what not). The biggest issue is whether Saim Ayub can return fit or not. It's still not clear." 
It remains to be seen when will Pakistan announce the squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The tournament is all set to take place from 19th February, with the final all set to be played on 9th March.
