IPL 2023: RCB vs MI will be mother of all contests this season – Harbhajan Singh

Explaining
the
reason
behind
it,
Harbhajan
stated
that
the
match
will
feature
two
of
the
biggest
superstars
of
the
game
–
Virat
Kohli
and
Rohit
Sharma
–
and
that
joined
with
the
infectious
energy
of
fans
at
the
M
Chinnaswamy
Stadium
will
add
to
the
atmosphere.

“RCB
vs
MI
match
is
going
to
be
the
biggest
match
of
TATA
IPL
2023
so
far
because
two
superstars
Virat
Kohli
and
Rohit
Sharma
will
be
up
against
each
other.
Add
to
it,
the
electrifying
atmosphere
at
Chinnaswamy.

“It
couldn’t
get
better
than
this.
Fans
can’t
afford
to
miss
it
as
200-plus
runs
can
be
scored
in
the
first
innings
and
it
could
be
chased
down
as
well.
So
it
is
going
to
be
the
mother
of
all
contests
in
the
TATA
IPL
2023
so
far,”
Harbhajan
said
while
speaking
exclusively
to
Star
Sports,
the
official
TV
broadcaster
of
IPL.

Apart
from
Kohli
and
Rohit,
the
likes
of
Ishan
Kishan,
Suryakumar
Yadav
and
Mohammed
Siraj
will
also
feature
in
the
match.
The
high-octane
encounter
will
also
witness
Jofra
Archer
playing
for
the
Mumbai
Indians
(MI)
for
the
first
time
in
his
IPL
career.

IPL
2023:
M
Chinnaswamy
is
a
noisy
stadium
–
Kallis

Further,
South
Africa
legend
Jacques
Kallis
has
called
M
Chinnaswamy
Stadium
“a
noisy”
venue
which
acts
as
12th
man
for
RCB.

“M
Chinnaswamy
is
a
noisy
stadium,
it’s
a
small
ground.
The
opposition
feels
the
pressure
here
as
the
crowd
is
on
top
of
you.
It’s
tough
for
the
visiting
teams
here.
It’s
great
to
have
such
passionate
home
fans.
Hopefully,
it’s
a
good
wicket
and
we
get
to
see
a
good
contest.
I
can’t
wait
to
watch
this
game,”
he
said.

The
match
will
kick
start
from
7:30
PM
IST
after
the
SRH
vs
RR
