IPL-10 finals: Rising Pune Supergiant to take on Mumbai Indians

Date:

Hyderabad : Mumbai Indians (MI) will be vying for their third Indian Premier League (IPL) title when they take on Rising Pune Supergiant (RPS) in the final of the tenth edition of the event on Sunday evening.

So far, the Steve Smith-led RPS has had the better of MI, beating them thrice this season, which includes a 20-run win in the first qualifier played earlier this week.

MI has an enviable record of having reached the IPL final on three earlier occasions, and winning in 2013 and 2015, and therefore, can be expected to have their tails up when they encounter RPS at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium here this evening.

Mumbai entered the finals after a six-wicket win against the Gautam Gambhir-led Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the second qualifier played in Bengaluru on Friday.
