Sawai Mansingh Stadium Pitch Report 

The Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur is known to be a perfect pitch for batters. The surface offers true bounce and pace, allowing batters to hit through the line. While it can be a bit challenging to bat on the wicket early in the game, the conditions tend to improve as the match progresses. Spinners tend to enjoy bowling on this surface as the ball bounces and turns sharply. However, for the pacers, it is a tough wicket as the dryness of it doesn’t offer them much.

Probable Best Players of the Match

Probable Best Batter

Jos Buttler slammed a brilliant ton in the last game and will look to deliver a good start for the Royals. He has been striking the ball well and fitness could be a question for the next game. With RR getting ample time before their game against MI, Buttler seems to have recovered well. If he sees through Jasprit Bumrah in the initial part of the tussle, he could prove as a game-changer.

Probable Best Bowler

Jasprit Bumrah must strike early to put the MI in a commanding position. The bowling attack must deliver the goods as they are up against a formidable batting lineup. Having said that, Bumrah has led from the front as was evident in the game against Punjab Kings. Where every other bowler went for runs, he bowled at an economy rate of less than six.
