After winning both their opening games, Rajasthan Royals have struggled outside Sharjah Stadium. They lost both their games against Knight Riders and Royal Challengers Bangalore and the slower pitch in Abu Dhabi isn’t likely to do their batsmen much favours either.

Head to Head/Small League
In the small league, the expected playing XI consisting of the best players should be chosen. And as such, assembling the best individuals to ensure maximum quality in all departments will be the right thing to do.

Top Picks for MI vs RR MyTeam11 contest
Rohit Sharma: Rohit Sharma was at his very best against Kolkata Knight Riders. He scored 80 runs in just 54 deliveries and looked unstoppable. He followed that up with yet another solid knock of 70 runs against Kings XI Punjab.
Jasprit Bumrah: After a little inconsistency, Bumrah looks to be at his best once again. He picked up two scalps and gave away just 18 runs in his four overs. He followed that up with another two wickets against Sunrisers.
Steve Smith: Despite concussion related concerns, Steve Smith looked in startling form in the opening match. He scored 69 runs off just 47 deliveries and hit four 4s and four 6s. He followed that up with yet another half-century off 27 balls in the second game!
Sanju Samson: Sanju Samson has been a major highlight of the tournament thus far. He has won Man of the Match award in both the games that Rajasthan Royals have played and won. He scored 85 runs off just 42 deliveries in the match against Kings XI Punjab.
MI vs RR MyTeam11 Captain Picks
Captain: Rohit Sharma and Steve Smith
Rohit Sharma would love to get a big knock after his stutter in the previous match against Sunrisers. Steve Smith hasn’t been at his best and his batting has been very unusual but he’d surely love to get his form back on track in this game.
Vice Captains: Jofra Archer and Kieron Pollard
Jofra Archer is a proven match-winner with the ball and can also inflict damage with the bat. Kieron Pollard can still hit the big shots but he needs to face more deliveries.
