Check out what the RPS coach
MS Dhoni vs Rohit Sharma
Talk of a high-stakes game, and a vague outline of MS Dhoni appears, to tell you that he's got everything under control. He's just always there during big moments. Every stadium across the country has showered love for the former Indian captain, putting their team loyalty on the backseat. When he steps onto the field in less than an hour's time, he will be part of his seventh IPL final, two of which he has won. Talk about experience!
Rohit Sharma too has an impressive record in IPL finals. The opener has featured in three summit clashes (for DC in 2009 and for MI in 2013 and 2015).
Quite a match-up, this!
Where is the IPL trophy headed?
So, here we're then. The final day of the IPL season is upon us. Two teams with geographical closeness will slug it out for the ultimate prize. But there's more - Mumbai Indians have the chance to claim bragging rights over being the best team of the decade, with three titles, while Rising Pune Supergiant could help their owners reap the dividends of a risky, two-year investment. All at stake then, but you already knew that.
ICYMI, a little recap of the proceedings in the playoffs - Rising Pune Supergiant sneaked up on an unsuspecting Mumbai Indians on the slow burner at the Wankhede and took the easier path to the final. Rohit Sharma & Co., had their wings clipped but proved their ability to fly was still intact, by swatting aside their fellow two-time champions KKR in the second qualifier. RPS would be naive to assume that the Wankhede version of their local rivals will greet them in Hyderabad.
