MI vs RR Live Score: Pitch report
“It’s pitch number 7. 63m and 65m square boundaries respectively, 74m down the ground. This surface wasn’t used last year, the two tracks adjacent to it were used. If you bat first, you need to score big here. It’s a red soil pitch, looks great and has a generous covering of grass. You are going to see a lot of runs. Spinners won’t be effective,” reckons Brian Lara.

MI vs RR Live Score: MI seek improvement
A big score is due from Rohit Sharma who has provided strong starts to Mumbai but what they truly need is Hardik Pandya to get his decisions right. Pandya has evidently not used Jasprit Bumrah to the best way possible and Mumbai Indians will have a chance to iron out such flaws. Bumrah and Piyush Chawla bring the element of experience to the table in the MI bowling attack which has shown trust on local boy Shams Mulani, who is relatively new at the IPL stage but immensely experienced when it comes to playing at the Wankhede Stadium.
