IPL 2021: 3 players to avoid in fantasy teams for Mumbai Indians vs Rajasthan Royals game

Mumbai Indians and Rajasthan Royals are all set to go head to head with each other in an IPL 2021 match at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. Both these teams have played out the most interesting matches in this league’s history. Having shared 11 wins each, they would be keen to get over one another. 

It will be a good chance for the fans to earn some fantasy points, but to know which player might be a good pick and which won’t be, will give you a good advantage in getting it right.

Here are the 3 players you must avoid in your fantasy teams for the match between Mumbai Indians and Rajasthan Royals:

Ishan Kishan

The left-handed batsman from Jharkhand has not played an innings of substance since his T20I debut when he smashed the English bowlers all around the park. Last time, he was sent in at no. 3. The plan didn’t work as he struggled to find his timing on the slow surface of Chepauk. In Delhi, he might like to bat but, considering how his form has been, it is advisable that you avoid him on your side. On top of that, in this match, Quinton de Kock, Jos Buttler, and Sanju Samson are available in the wicketkeeper-batsman category, who are likely to be more fruitful picks. 

Yashasvi Jaiswal

The youngster played his first match of the season in his team’s last outing against Kolkata Knight Riders. His technique seems alright and he might get a few runs to get his side to a good start, but he is unlikely to go on and get a big score for his side. With so many other batting options available, it is clearly a better choice to go with someone else than Yashasvi Jaiswal. It is worth noting that he didn’t have the best of domestic seasons earlier this year when he played in the premier 50-overs and 20-overs competitions. 

Hardik Pandya

The star all-rounder has not found his rhythm with the bat so far in this tournament. There used to be a time when he could contribute in both disciplines to pick up his game, but these days he hasn’t been seen bowling. With the bat, he has been quite disappointing as he hasn’t managed to get any substantial batting knock. It is better to go with his brother, Krunal Pandya instead of him.
