MI vs KKR: Rohit Sharma's Mumbai Indians are all set to take on Nitish Rana's Kolkata Knight Riders in the 22nd match of the ongoing Indian Premier League. As far as the history between both these teams goes, Mumbai have always enjoyed an upper hand against their favourite opponents, the Kolkata Knight Riders. Interestingly, Rohit Sharma isn't starting in the eleven due to a stomach bug. Mumbai are currently in the 9th spot and have won only one match in the ongoing tournament so far. On the other hand, Kolkata Knight Riders have won two out of their four IPL games this season. The match is being played at the Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai.

As far as this match is concerned, it is a special occasion for the Tendulkar family. Arjun Tendulkar, who was picked up by the Mumbai outfit in the 2022 mega auctions has finally made his debut for the men in blue & gold. Arjun has finally made his debut for the Mumbai Indians and this has got the Netizens excited. Arjun was also seen chatting with his dad Sachin Tendulkar ahead of this crucial clash
