Mumbai vs Kolkata: The Most One-Sided Rivalry in the Indian T20 League

The battle between East and West in the Indian T20 League has been a one-sided affair, with Mumbai getting the better of the Purple and Gold Army in every season. Despite this, there have been a number of entertaining games between the two sides in the competition's history.

Kolkata’s inability to get over the line against Mumbai has become somewhat of a mental roadblock for the team. This season, the Eoin Morgan-led team will be hoping for a better showing against the defending champions.

On the other hand, Mumbai have found success at the Eden Gardens, Kolkata’s home ground, and skipper Rohit Sharma has a terrific record at the venue. Mumbai have won here considerably more than the home team.

Mumbai Team vs Kolkata Team: Head to Head Record

Wins for Kolkata have been very rare in this contest, with their last win coming in the 2019 season. Since then, Mumbai have won 4 games straight. In the 2020 edition of the Indian T20 League, Mumbai did a double on Kolkata as they easily won both the encounters.
