Match 39 of the IPL 2021 will be held at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, played between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Mumbai Indians. The match will be kicked off on 26th September (Sunday) at 20:00 (GMT+6).
Royal Challengers Bangalore are in third place in the points table after winning 5 matches. Mumbai Indians have won 4 matches of their 9 matches and are 2 points behind in sixth place.
Royal Challengers Bangalore have lost both of their matches in the UAE leg, and the team’s confidence is ebbing. Their opening batters, on the other hand, are in excellent form and will always provide a platform.
The Mumbai Indians are winless in the UAE as well, having lost both matches by a large margin. They often recover from poor mini-runs in the competition, and now is the time for the 2020 Champions to show their quality.
