Rajasthan Royals are in Abu Dhabi for their next challenge against the table toppers, Mumbai Indians. The two teams come into the match with contrasting forms, the Royals having suffered a defeat against RCB, while Mumbai successfully defended a total at Sharjah against the Sun Risers. The Royals would be eager to get two more points on the board, against a team they’ve had a good recent record.

Venue talk

The Royals were unbeaten at Abu Dhabi prior to the RCB and would need to find their mojo back to get a win against a strong Mumbai Indians side. The Royals are yet to win outside of Sharjah this year and would be looking to notch a win on Tuesday to get going. This will be the Royals’ second game in the capital city and one would have to believe that they are better placed with regards to the venue compared to their first game. MI on the other hand are based in Abu Dhabi and would look to continue on their win against KXIP at the venue.
