RCB VS MI Highlights
IPl 2023 RCB vs MI Highlights: Yet again, Mumbai Indians lost the opening match of an Indian Premier League (IPL) season, suffering an 8-wicket rout against Illustrious Challengers Bangalore on Sunday. The MI team’s loss brought to light a number of problems that they must address if they are to compete for the title this season. During the presentation ceremony following the match, Rohit Sharma admitted that he is now “accustomed” to playing without Jasprit Bumrah and issued a subtle warning to his bowling unit.
RCB vs MI Highlights
Mumbai Indians achieved a score of 172 when they batted first, helped along by a stunning performance from Tilak. However, Bangalore won the night because Faf and Virat only made sixes and fours rain in the stadium. Virat Kohli scored 82 runs, including six 4s and five 6s, in an unbeaten performance. On the other hand, Faf performed exceptionally well both with his bat and in the field. The Royal Challengers captain scored 73 runs, including five 4s and six 6s.

Rohit on his first loss in IPL 2023
After the team’s defeat, Rohit said, “In the first six overs, we did not have a great start with the bat. However, Tilak’s and the efforts of a few other batters were outstanding. We just didn’t do enough with the ball, though. It was an excellent pitch for bats. Tilak Verma: “He is a positive individual, very skilled too. He played some shots with a lot of bravery. Thank you, Tilak, for helping us reach a competitive total. It was an excellent batting surface. We didn’t set any goals, but we got to 170 despite not even hitting half of our potential. The ideal number of runs would have been between 30 and 40.
