Rohit Sharma's record against RCB in IPL
Rohit Sharma is an opener for Mumbai Indians in IPL 2026.
Mumbai Indians (MI) are set to clash with Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in match 20 of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026. The encounter will take place on April 12 (Sunday) at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.
MI have made a poor start in IPL 2026, winning just one game out of the first three. This means that game against RCB will be important in the context of the tournament. Despite the home advantage, it will be a tough challenge for MI as the defending champions have been in brilliant form.
Rohit Sharma has looked in decent touch for MI in IPL 2026 and will be in the limelight for the crucial clash against RCB. He made a brilliant start to the tournament by smacking a 78-run knock in the opening game against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). He got out for 35 and 5 in the next two encounters.
The MI vs RCB clash will also witness batting legend Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma sharing the same field. While Kohli will be in the spotlight in the RCB squad, fans will expect Rohit to rock with the bat.
