DY Patil Stadium pitch report RR vs MI: Rajasthan Royals and Mumbai Indians will lock horns against each other at the DY Patil Stadium

Mumbai Indians will take on Rajasthan Royals in the 44th league game of the Indian Premier League 2022. The game will be played at the DY Patil Stadium in Mumbai.

Mumbai Indians are out of the tournament, and they will just play for respect. However, the Mumbai Indians can cut down the chances of other teams. Rajasthan Royals have been brilliant this season with both bat and the ball.

Jos Buttler has scored three centuries in the tournament, and he is the current owner of the orange cap, whereas Yuzvendra Chahal is holding the purple cap. In the last game against RCB, the Royals won without any major contribution from Buttler and Chahal.
