Mumbai Indians vs Royal Challengers Bangalore Live Streaming - IPL 2013

MI vs RCB IPL Live Streaming 2013

In a recently ongoing poll related to the favourite IPL team this year, Mumbai Indians rank second behind Chennai Super Kings. Sounds pretty genuine, isn't it? Well Mumbai Indians is always among the top favourite teams of IPL and Sachin Tendulkar's presence plays a major role in that. 

Mumbai Indians takes on Royal Challengers Bangalore in the 2nd match of IPL 2013. Both these teams have really been highly promising in last few editions of IPL. But both the teams have failed to lift the trophy. These teams would be eager to begin this year's IPL account with a victory.

Venue for this match would be Bangalore and hence RCB will enjoy the home support which also plays a major role in IPL matches. With so much of pressure involved in this T20 league, support from the home crowd can work as a confidence booster.

The biggest attraction this year for Mumbai Indians, apart from Sachin and Malinga would be Ricky Ponting. He will be captaining the side for the first time. It would be an absolute treat to watch two greatest batsmen Sachin and Ponting batting together. Ponting has been in good knock in Big Bash and Shield Cricket tournament and he can play a big role for Mumbai Indians this year.

Mumbai Indians has a well balance batting as well as bowling order. With the presence of Malinga, Ojha and  Munaf Patel. They also have certain part timers as well as full time bowlers to make a mark. Batting line up looks good in presence of Sachin, Ponting, Rayudu, Rohit Sharma, etc.

Royal Challengers Bangalore is well known for swashbuckling batsman Chris Gayle. He wins matches for RCB single handedly. But sometimes this over dependency of Chris Gayle hurts the overall performance. Team's captain Virat Kohli is a brilliant cricketer and has scored a lot of runs in IPL. Dilshan, AB de Villiers and many such high scoring batsmen make the batting line up strong but still a lot depends on Chris Gayle's performances.

Let us hope for an exciting match between MI and RCB which sets the tone for a good Pepsi IPL 6 ahead!
