Mumbai skipper Rohit Sharma will be a good pick for captaincy.

Preview:

The 2021 season of the annual cricketing fiesta, the Indian T20 League is just around the corner. In the first match, Virat Kohli’s Bangalore will square off Rohit Sharma’s Mumbai. If head-to-head records are concerned, Mumbai are the outright favourites for this match.

But it will be foolish to write Kohli’s army off in this match. Firstly, Mumbai always tends to start on the back foot, and losing the first game is something their fans must be accustomed to. Secondly, Bangalore themselves have added to their strengths, with experienced players like Daniel Christian complementing the youngsters.

Match Details:

Mumbai vs Bangalore

Venue: MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai

Time: 7:30 PM IST

Live Streaming: Star Sports Network, Disney+ Hotstar

Pitch Report:

This is a track where the ball tends to grip the surface, making it difficult for the batsmen to play their natural game. Both teams will be relying on their spinners to do the lion’s share of wicket-taking here.

Top Picks for MUM vs BAN 11Wickets Match:

Virat Kohli had a great T20I series against England very recently. The Bangalore skipper will be aiming to carry that form into the Indian T20 League.

Rohit Sharma is a player for whom form should not be the judging parameter, as his class is beyond the realm of that. The Mumbai skipper will be a good pick for captaincy.

Glenn Maxwell might have been ineffective in the 2020 season, but since then, they have once again hit the ground running. After a stellar season will Melbourne Stars, he did well in the Australian kit as well.

AB de Villiers will once again be a pillar in the Bangalore batting unit. The veteran player had a good 2020 season, and while he hasn’t played much cricket after that, Mr. 360° can be trusted to be in his best shape at all times.


Suggested Playing XI No.1 for MUM vs BAN 11Wickets Cricket:

AB de Villiers, Mohammad Azharuddeen, Rohit Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav, Virat Kohli (C), Glenn Maxwell (VC), Hardik Pandya, Krunal Pandya, Yuzvendra Chahal, Rahul Chahar, Jasprit Bumrah
