Hindi Mumbai and Royal Challengers Bangalore are two of the best teams to watch out for in any version of IPL. With RCB led by Captain of India, Virat Kohli, and IM led by Vice-Captain of India, Rohit Sharma, great contests always happen. In IPL 2021, it wouldn't be any different.
MI vs RCB head-to-head in IPL:
In 29 matches MI and RCB have met 29 times so far, 27 times in IPL and twice in the now-ending T20 Champions League. With a balanced side, MI for the most part outperformed the Royal Challengers Bangalore. As is the record, IM Rohit Sharma won 19 matches out of 29, while RCB Virat Kohli only managed 10 matches. Only one super match has ended and it was won by RCB in Dubai last year.

MI vs RCB close contests:
Sep 28, 2020: RCB beat MI in Super Over: Thanks to half centuries of Devdutt Padikkal, Aaron Finch and AB de Villiers, RCB has set a mega-goal of 202 runs for MI in Dubai. But the ultimate champions won't let it run smoothly. Supported by Ishan Kishan's impressive 99 of 58 balls and 60 of 24 balls from Keiron Pollard, MI tied the score with 20 balls. But at SuperOver, they came short as Navdeep Saini's premier bowling alley grabbed MI's capital hit in the Gulf and RCB scored a modest 8-game goal without breaking a sweat.
April 4, 2013: RCB won by 2 runs: Chris Gayle helped 92 of the 58 RCBs score 156 strokes, but despite 60 balls out of 37 balls from Dinesh Karthik, they fell two short times.
September 10, 2010: MI won by 2 runs: In a reverse position, MI managed to overtake the RCB in the T20 Champions League in Durban by only two races. After scoring 165/7 in 20 sums with the help of 41 Shikhar Dhawan and 38 Saurabh Tiwary, the RCB was sailing with Rahul Dravid doing 71 out of 58 and Virat Kohli 47 out of 24. But in the end, they only came up with only 2 jobs.
