Former Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) skipper, Virat Kohli was seen practicing hard ahead of their important game of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 against Mumbai Indians (MI) at the MCA Stadium in Pune on Saturday. It will be the night match on the day of the doubleheader.
RCB has won two games out of the three games they have played so far and a win here will elevate them to the top half of the IPL 2022 points table. On the other hand, MI is yet to open their account in the season so far as they have lost all three games. The two old rivals have locked horns with each other 31 times in IPL so far and it is MI that has enjoyed the fair share of success against RCB with 19 wins. RCB also hold the edge in the last five meetings as they have won 3 games.
