MI Playing 11: Mumbai Indians have lost all their 3 games and are up against the title favorites in Royal Challengers Bangalore for their fourth game of the IPL 2022 season. The path ahead is not going to be an easy one for the out of form Rohit Sharma led Mumbai Indians. They would need inspiration from their captain but they have had won trophies for fun even with Rohit Sharma being awful with the bat in the previous so many seasons.
RCB vs MI: Fabian Allen to replace Daniel Sams?
Mumbai Indians have one of the weakest spin bowling units in the competition. Murugan Ashwin has all the potential in the world but his control is pathetic and bowls too many loose balls to let go of all the good work he had done before with the ball.
The fact that Daniel Sams has been clueless with the ball in the first three games will definitely make them think about Fabian Allen. They already have 3 pacers in their XI in Jasprit Bumrah, Basil Thampi, and Tymal Mills and the addition of Fabian Allen will add variety to their spin bowling attack.

Mumbai Indians decided to leave out Tim David after 2 failures which was not fair to the lanky finisher but Dewald Brevis grabbed the opportunity presented to him with both the hands. He played some crisp shots against both spin and pace and proved his mettle at the highest level.

Mayank Markande might have an outside opportunity to replace Murugan Ashwin who hasn’t been impressive in the first three games except in parts. This is going to be a must win match for Mumbai Indians as they cant afford to lose the first four games of the season.
