The IPL 2021 starts tonight, Clash of titans in a power packed opener.

Rohit Sharma vs Virat Kohli Friday blockbuster can offer in the times of lockdowns and OTTs. the cricket fans are waiting for this movement from long days.

Beyond the marketing gimmicks and fan-club pleasing scheduling though, comes a highly valued cricket match between two teams - one that aims to strengthen its legacy and the other that wishes to halt it.

The journey of Mumbai Indians though has come to a point where there are more ghosts to fear in the Indian Premier League opener than in the final. Several of their players have laughed off the thought of what ails them in the first stop and suggest that the winless run since 2012 is beyond their understanding. What Mumbai Indians would be out to fix in the tournament opener, is what Royal Challengers Bangalore would be doing with respect to their fortunes in the competition: try to figure out what is going wrong!

While the defending champions have retained their core unit, RCB spent big bucks at the 2021 auction to acquire the services of Glenn Maxwell and Kyle Jamieson to strengthen them further. Yet, much like most of the seasons, where they seemed to have assembled a strong squad, the winning formula is yet to be discovered.
