Both Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Mumbai Indians are coming off losses and so one may think that both are in the same boat as they get ready to face off in Mumbai on Sunday. While RCB, the defending champions, lost one after two confident victories, Mumbai won their first game but suffered back-to-back defeats in their next two. That both RCB and Mumbai were beaten by Rajasthan Royals, or rather by Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, is another story though. Mumbai have a solid team, both in batting and bowling, but are yet to fire in unison. But that’s typical of Mumbai, who are known for slow starts.
