KKR lost their second match to Royal Challengers Bangalore at Dr. DY Patil Sports Academy in Mumbai where they failed to defend their 128th goal. Sherfane Rutherford and Shahbaz Ahmed were in the shield for last season's final. However, Shreyas Iyer's team came back with a comfortable six-wicket victory over the Punjab Kings in a comfortable chase of 137 at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.

The Mumbai Indians did not take off at the start they expected as they lost to the Delhi Capitals in their first match and then to Rajasthan Royals in their second match. Unable to salvage their 170-point lead against Delhi, then they could not chase Rajasthan's 193-point lead. The problem with Rohit Sharma's men is that they are unable to stop the opposing batsmen during their beatings.
