Can Rohit Sharma score big against RR?
Rohit Sharma will be in focus during MI's game against RR in Jaipur. The right-hander does not boast a great record against Rajasthan in the IPL; from 28 innings, he has scored 547 runs at an average of 19.54 and a strike-rate of 124.32 with just two half-centuries.
However, his recent form has been solid heading into this game. In the last three matches, Rohit has scored two half-centuries, returning to form after a poor start to the season.
Against Chenai Super Kings (CSK), he scored an unbeaten 76 off 45 balls, striking at 168.89 with four boundaries and six maximums. He scored another fifty in the next game against SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH), making 70 off 46 balls including eight boundaries and three sixes.
In their last match against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), he started well making 12 runs off five balls with two sixes but could not carry on. MI currently sit second in the points table behind Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB).
