RCB vs MI Dream11 Prediction: Batters and Wicket-Keepers
Quinton de Kock
He has scored 338 runs against Bengaluru, at an average of 42 and an outstanding SR of 148.
He has earned 365 fantasy points this season and thus has given more than decent average fantasy points per match.
Given that he is a wicketkeeper, there is always an extra scope for points apart from runs in the form of stumpings and catches.
Rohit Sharma
With a total of 283 runs in 8 matches, Rohit is the leading run getter for Mumbai this season.
In fact, he has scored at least 45 fantasy points in 6 out of his 8 matches this season and is giving regular returns.
AB de Villiers
AB de Villiers has scores of scores of 48, 15, 55*, 75 & 70* in his last 5 outings against Mumbai in the Indian T20 league.
Overall as well he has scored 774 runs against them at an average of 46 and SR of 148.
In 9 innings at Dubai, he has scored 299 runs at an average of 50 and thus loves batting at this venue as well.
RCB vs MI Dream11 Prediction: Bowlers
Jasprit Bumrah
After struglling a little bit in the Indian leg this season, Bumrah has certainly found his lost rhythm in his 2 matches here in the U.A.E. as he has taken 3/43 & 2/33.
In fact, not to forget that last season (2020) he had taken 27 wickets in just 15 matches here in the U.A.E. which was the 2nd highest.
He does have a great record against Bengaluru in the Indian T20 league having taken 21 wickets against them in just 16 matches
Harshal Patel
It was against Mumbai in the season opener that Harshal had taken his T20 career best of 5/27 and thus will be looking to repeat the same in this fixture as well.
He is already the highest wicket taker with 19 wickets in 9 matches.
In fact, he has scored at least 50 fantasy points in 7 out of his 9 matches this season and is giving regular returns.
Rahul Chahar
He might be wicketless in the last 3 matches this season but in his first 6 matches, he had picked up 11 wickets which is the joint most by a Mumbai bowler.
Given that this match is at Dubai, a ground with big dimensions, Chahar can be much more effective as hitting a spinner is very tough at this venue.
Very seldom times does Rahul Chahar goes wicketless in a match and given that he failed to do so in his last 3 matches, we can expect good performance from him in this fixture.
RCB vs MI Dream11 Prediction: All-Rounders
Glenn Maxwell
He might have scored only 21 runs in his recent 3 matches this season, but before that he had piled up 223 runs in just 5 innings and thus it is about time that Maxwell finds his rhythm.
Interestingly, in the last match he did bowl as well and picked up priced scalp of Faf du Plessis against Chennai, thus can be effective with the ball as well given that there are many left handers in Mumbai's batting lineups (de Kock, Kishan, K Pandya, Tiwary).
Wanindu Hasaranga
He might be wicketless in the 2 matches that he has played so far, but he is a far more better player than that as currently he is ranked 2nd in the ICC Men's T20I bowler's ranking.
Coming into this IPL, he had taken 10 wickets in his last 6 T20Is and can be more than handy with the bat as well if needed.
Given that Mumbai batters are struglling against spinners this season, Wanindu Hasaranga can prove to be effective in this fixture.
Krunal Pandya
He has scored 18, 10, 56, 55, 5, 21, 30, 53 & 53 fantasy points respectively in his 9 matches this season and thus has given good returns in odd matches.
Given that he has been quiet in the last 2 matches, he can be a high risk-good return pick for this fixture given his pattern of scoring points.
