Rjasthan Royals vs Mumbai Indians

Rajasthan Royals collected 6 runs in 13 overs. Their run rate is now 6.69. They have lost only two wickets. Their run rate is so low it amazes me. I thought maybe today they would give more than 200 targets, since Mumbai's bowling is not good. But now it seems that Rajasthan Royals will not be able to do more than 160-170. And if Mumbai can hold Rajasthan below 170, then maybe they are going to get a win first.

It's tournament 2nd best team vs tournament worst team. The only thing we wanna see is that can MI win or they will grab 9th consecutive loss of there IPL 2022 journey. RR have given a target of 158 and its very much in the reach but seeing the performance of MI it looks very difficult.

158 runs is not a big collection. Mumbai must win this match. Mumbai's bowlers have played well. Mumbai will easily win today if the batsmen do their duty. Despite having experienced batsmen like Rohit, Ishan Kishan and Pallard in the squad, they have yet to win a match. Mumbai's collection of 22 runs in 2 overs without losing a wicket. Mumbai will get the first win if they can perform responsibly in today's match.

Important news, Jadeja to handover CSK captaincy back to MS Dhoni. Ravindra Jadeja to concentrate more on his game. MS Dhoni has accepted to lead CSK on the upcoming matches. Will this help CSK re-bounce and make consecutive wins which might increase the chance of getting into the top team on the points table.

Although the target is only 159. But don't forget the opponent here is Mumbai Indians. Who has yet to win a single match. So winning today's match is also challenging for them. Especially Rohit Sharma is not in form now. Mumbai lost Rohit Sharma by 21 runs and Ishan Kishan by 41 runs. Now Mumbai's collection is only 61 runs in 6 overs. 98 runs from 78 balls are required to win. Mumbai still have a chance to win if they do not lose wickets quickly.

MI are finally in a position to win there first game. They need 24 runs on 18 balls. Good thing is MI 15 crore white elephant finally scored some runs as he scored 26 runs. But main scorer were Suryakumar Yadav and varma. Its good that MI finally see some victory.

Wins required to get qualified for the top four position on the points table. Chennai and KKR were in a very critical position to win remaining matches to get qualified. Mumbai Indians already eliminated from this season IPL. In today's match the team seems to be playing pressure free, and it looks like the first win for Mumbai Indians.

Well... finally they managed to win a match this season. The performance from Sanju Samson and the other Rajasthan batsmen were not up to the mark today, and their bowlers could not successfully defend such a small total. Riley Meredith and Kumar Kartikeya bowled outstandingly for Mumbai today, well supported by economic spells from Jasprit Bumrah and Daniel Sams. And when they came out to bat, once again Suryakumar Yadav was exceptional. And this time Ishan Kishan managed to get in to two digits.

After having 8 consecutive losses Mumbai Indians has won their first match today in this season. The target wasn't so big, still Mumbai had to play until the final over to get the victory. The score was 41 runs after 6 over. They made 20 runs in the 7th over. I think it was the turning point of the match.

Based on the all seasons performance, Mumbai and Chennai are the best two teams of IPL. But they are at showing worst performance in this season and staying at the last two rank. Perhaps, none of them will qualify for the next round of this season.

I did not expect Mumbai Indians to win any matches this season but the difference i saw was that their bowlers played a crucial role in securing their victory by reducing Rajasthan Royals to a sub par total than they used to score and yet the Mumbai Indian batsman struggled to cross the winning line .

Based on the all seasons performance, Mumbai and Chennai are the best two teams of IPL. But they are at showing worst performance in this season and staying at the last two rank. Perhaps, none of them will qualify for the next round of this season.

There is no way they will get qualified for the next round, but they were performing well in the past but this time around they changed many major players in the Mumbai Indian squad and hence they are struggling to win matches.

In case of CSK, I guess still there is some chance. But for all practical purposes, Mumbai is eliminated from the next round (despite their win yesterday). And with both the teams, this time their biggest drawback was their captaincy. For the Chennai Super Kings, Ravindra Jadeja could not match the captaincy skills of Mahendra Singh Dhoni, while for Mumbai Rohit Sharma was a gigantic failure. Absence of Deepak Chahar crippled the CSK bowling, while the lack of form from Ishan Kishan completely destroyed the Mumbai batting capability.

Mumbai's team is not stable. The team may have talented players, but they are not experienced enough. This is why their performance is not going well. At the same time, their main player Rohit Sharma is not in form. If he could have played better, Mumbai could have won several more matches. Even though the target was only 159 in yesterday's match, Mumbai face a lot of problems to win this match. Tilak and Suryakumar Yadav's responsible batting helped Mumbai win, and Tim David's 20 off 9 balls was an essential inning.

Finally a relief for MI after 8 straight losses they saw a victory. Jos Buttler continuing his brilliant form, apart from Jos Buttler no one contributed. You already highlighted MI batting. Suryakumar Yadav rightly deserves to be man of the match for his 51 runs.

MI first mistake was that they heavily invested on a single player rather diversifying their investments on different players in the auction. The one they bought has been an utter failure and this mistake has costed them this IPL season. In my opinion CSK should have stick with Dhoni as the captain from the beginning. Replacing Ravindra jadeja now with him will not make any great impact.

There is hardly any notable player in MI. I remember when kishan was bought by MI for 15 crore, everyone was saying its  a wise decision by MI as kishan has good record in MI. Apart from kishan, Rohit is also proving to be a failure both as batsmen and captain.
CSK should stick with Jadeja, so that he can get the experience. IPL is already over for both MI and CSK.

I can't believe RCB lost again. While it started out strong in the beginning of the season, seems like the team has completely lost its grip over the recent matches. At least it is good to see Kohli score a 50. RCB needs to get a grip on its bowler and get them to play better.

Probably RCB fans are the most disappointed yet the most hopeful lot out there.

GT are a much better and in form team than RCB. They have lost only 1 match this season and are at the top in points table. RCB did put on a good target of 170 runs but the way GT batsmen have been playing in this season that was not good enough. If du Plessis had not lost his wicket and had stayed with Virat then the target would have been different. I feel GT will easily reach the finals of this season.

Gujarat Titans continued to dominate in the ongoing (IPL) 2022 season. With this recent win, their place is at the top of the IPL points table and now have 16 points from nine matches.

So far Gujarat Titans doing great in the IPL. The team has 8 wins out of 9, 5 of them have come while chasing the target.

So, I do agree GT has emerged as the strongest team this season. Looking forward to some more power pack performance by the team in future matches.

Lucknow Super Giants vs Delhi Capitals

The Super Giant 196 was able to deliver a huge target. The decision to bat first after winning their toss was the right one. Lucknow lost 3 wickets and scored 195 runs. And the interesting thing is that Shardul Thakur got all three wickets. It is very difficult to win by batting for 196 runs, moreover, Lucknow's bowling lineup is quite experienced.
However, there are some Delhi T20 specialist batsmen. David Warner, Mitchel Marsh, Rishab Pant, Prithvi Shaw, Lalit Yadav are all great batsmen. So Delhi has the ability to win even after batting for 196 runs.

To win, Delhi Capital will have to collect about 10 runs per over. If the opening pair Prithvi Shaw and Warner are able to play well, then Delhi can easily win this match. Batting for 223 against Rajasthan, Delhi was able to collect till 207. So they can win for 196 runs if the top-order players are able to play well.
At the end of the first over, Delhi collected only 1 run.

[elevates]

Delhi Capitals won over Kolkata Knight Riders in their last game by four wickets. They are currently fourth in the points table with four wins.

Lucknow Super Giants after winning five out of eight games are occupying fourth place in the points table. The team defeated Mumbai Indians in its last game.

So, hoping for some tough game happening.
