Mumbai Indians (MI) will square off against Rajasthan Royals (RR) in the 42nd match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 at the iconic Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Sunday (April 30). Notably, MI suffered a defeat in their previous encounter against Gujarat Titans (GT), while RR registered a win over Chennai Super Kings (CSK).

Nehal Wadhera was the only convincing batter for Mumbai in their last game, scoring 40 runs off 21 balls. However, he failed to get his team across the line, and MI eventually lost the contest. Meanwhile, Piyush Chawla was the pick of the bowlers for the Mumbai-based side, picking up two wickets in the first innings. At the same time, Yashasvi Jaiswal was the standout performer for RR in their victory over CSK. The left-handed opener hammered 77 runs off just 43 balls and played a significant role in his team’s victory. Among bowlers, Ravichandran Ashwin bagged two scalps for RR in the match.

RR currently holds the second position in IPL 2023 points table and will aim to dethrone GT from the top by defeating Mumbai in the upcoming clash. On the other hand, MI are on the eighth position and will be looking to end their losing streak.

Pitch report:​


The Wankhede Stadium is known for its shorter boundaries and generally favours the batters. However, spinners will also receive assistance from the surface as the game progresses. The dew factor will play a role in the game as well, and the team winning the toss would look to bowl first.

Mumbai Indians: Rohit Sharma (c), Ishan Kishan (wk), Cameron Green, Suryakumar Yadav, Tim David, Nehal Wadhera, Jofra Archer, Kumar Kartikeya, Arjun Tendulkar, Riley Meredith, Piyush Chawla

Rajasthan Royals: Yashasvi Jaiswal, Jos Buttler, Devdutt Padikkal, Sanju Samson (c/wk), Shimron Hetmyer, Dhruv Jurel, Ravichandran Ashwin, Jason Holder, Trent Boult, Sandeep Sharma, Yuzvendra Chahal
