Virat Kohli's bat has gone quiet, and Phil Salt's injury has left a gap at the top of the order that has disrupted the team's entire batting structure.
Meanwhile, Mumbai Indians have been a frustrating watch for much of this season. Rohit Sharma's return from injury has changed the mood considerably. He looked genuinely sharp on his comeback, playing with the kind of authority that suggests there is no lasting damage from his lay-off.
Mumbai will want him firing again in Raipur, particularly against an RCB bowling attack that will not offer easy runs.
