RR vs MI Live Score: Here’s what MI skipper Sanju Samson said at the toss

“We had a slightly different idea about the toss so it’s okay. You know the nature of the tournament, it’s a very long tournament, we had a five day break and we discussed about our plans, it’s about focusing about the system and the process. We have played lots of games here, we know how the wicket behaves. MI are known to come back hard in the tournament so we have to play well. We have had Sandeep Sharma back to our side and Kuldeep Sen misses out.”

RR vs MI Live Score: Here’s what MI skipper Hardik Pandya said at the toss

“We are gonna bat first, looks like a good wicket. It’s a very surreal feeling to play the 100th game for the franchise, started my journey with MI, I’m very grateful. We got three changes – Nuwan, Wadhera and Piyush Chawla come in.”

RR vs MI Live Score: Toss

Mumbai Indians skipper Hardik Pandya won the toss and opted to bat against Rajasthan Royals in their IPL 2024 match on Monday. 

RR vs MI Live Score: Pitch report

“There’s been four games (at this venue this season), teams batting first have won twice, teams fielding first have also won twice. Spinners haven’t necessarily dominated over seamers. When you look at the team scores, they have been around 180-190, high, but not too high at the same time. Tonight, we are in the middle as well – boundary sizes square – 67m either side, straight – 76m. This pitch looks very very beautiful, it’s dry, it’s hard and it’s even. Why isn’t there a score over 200? I think one of the reasons is players presently like bounce and there’s not a lot of moisture in this pitch,” said Natalie Germanos and Brian Lara.
