Mumbai Indians will look to consolidate their place at the top of the Indian Premier League table when they take on Rajasthan Royals in Jaipur on Friday.
Mumbai have been the most consistent side so far in the competition with five wins from six games and will start as favourites despite playing away from home.
Skipper Sachin Tendulkar is at the top of the run-scorers list and Lasith Malinga leads the wicket-takers' table by a comfortable margin and the two will be the key against Rajasthan as well.
The match will also see Tendulkar and skipper Shane Warne reignite their rivalry and unlike in the past when the battles have been evenly-matched, an in form Tendulkar is the favourite to dominate the Australian legend.
Rajasthan will have to play out of their skins to get anything out of the game and will look to Shaun Tait to make the early inroads.
