"Rajasthan usually finds a way to beat Mumbai"- Aakash Chopra previews RR vs MI clash
Aakash Chopra observed that the Rajasthan Royals have managed to find ways to defeat the five-time champions Mumbai Indians over the years.
The Sanju Samson-led side began their IPL 2022 campaign with a thumping win against SRH earlier this week. They are also the only side to win a match by defending a total so far in this edition of the IPL.
Speaking in a video on his official YouTube channel, Aakash Chopra previewed the MI vs RR clash.
The former Indian opener reckoned that Rajasthan has almost all the bases covered at the moment.
Chopra said:
"Rajasthan usually finds a way to beat Mumbai. This time, they have started positively as well. In the bowling, they have Ashwin, Chahal, Boult, and Prashidh Krishna. In the batting, with Buttler, they have Samson, Padikkal, Jaiswal, and Hetmyer. This looks like a brilliant side. Rajasthan has nothing to worry."
Aakash Chopra feels that Nathan Coulter-Nile's fitness issue is the only worry for the Jaipur-based team. He further added:
"The only problem I see for RR is Nathan Coulter-Nile’s injury, if he is not fit, they will have to bring in someone. But if he is fit, I will play him again. Apart from that injury worry, everything looks fine for RR."
MI and RR will battle it out today at the DY Patil Stadium in Mumbai in the ninth match of IPL 2022. The game begins at 15:30 IST.
