Royal Challengers Bangalore will take on the Rajasthan Royals in their next encounter at the MCA Stadium in Pune. The Faf du Plessis side had a completely off game against SRH in their previous game after being all out for just 68 and there wasn’t a lot that they could have done with the total. Anuj Rawat has been inconsistent at the top of the order and they might be tempted to bring in Mahipal Lamror who isn’t a bad option while pushing Virat Kohli up the order.

On the other hand, the Rajasthan Royals have had two close encounters in their last two games and Jos Buttler has been a complete masterclass at the top of the order. The bowling seemed to have leaked runs in the last two games but a lot will go down into the pitches as well, which had been a belter in the last two games for the side. They might consider replacing Obed McCoy with either Navdeep Saini or Kuldeep Sen.

Pitch Report

It has been quite a while since the last game between CSK and GT took place at the MCA Stadium. Any score above 170 is going to be tough for the team batting second, however, the captain that wins the toss will be tempted to bowl first considering the dew factor.

Probable Playing XIs for RCB vs RR

Royal Challengers Bangalore

Faf du Plessis (c), Anuj Rawat/Mahipal Lomror, Virat Kohli, Glenn Maxwell, Suyash Prabhudessai, Shahbaz Ahmed, Dinesh Karthik (wk), Wanindu Hasaranga, Harshal Patel, Josh Hazlewood, Mohammed Siraj.

Probable Top Performers

Probable best batter of the Match: Jos Buttler

With the kind of form he has been in, Jos Buttler will consider playing yet another match-winning knock for his side. The right-hander has already notched up three centuries this season and he has been quite unstoppable so far in the tournament. He has accelerated well after a slow start in the previous game and RR will be hoping he stays in the crease for long.

Probable best bowler of the Match: Yuzvendra Chahal

Yuzvendra Chahal produced a master class of spin bowling in the previous game when the ball was relatively wet and it was hard for the bowlers to grip. The leggie continued his impressive form and finished with 1 for 28 in his 4-over spell in a high-scoring game. He is the current “Purple Cap” holder as well with 18 wickets to his name in seven games.
