RR vs RCB: Match Details

• Date – Friday, May 27, 2022
• Time – 7:30 PM
• Venue – Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad

RR vs RCB Match Preview:

Rajasthan Royals have at least four performing batters in their unit namely Jos Buttler, Sanju Samson, Devdutt Padikkal, and Shimron Hetmyer. However, their support players like Yashasvi Jaiswal, R Ashwin, and Riyan Parag have also been quite impactful. It's a good batting lineup that has the ability to post enough total that they can, on most days, defend. 

The bowling has been fantastic as well. Barring off days, the spin duo of Yuzvendra Chahal and R Ashwin has been top-class. Royals will hope Trent Boult gets assistance with the new ball while Prasidh Krishna shrugs off his last match performance. RR might look to replace Obed McCoy with Kuldeep Sen. McCoy hasn't looked in control this season. 

Bangalore's plus point is that all their batters have batted in different difficult situations and taken their team out of the trouble. The bad point is, that the RCB batting almost always looks in trouble. It is high time for Faf du Plessis, Glenn Maxwell, and Virat Kohli to step up. 

Wanindu Hasaranga and Harshal Patel are the two key bowlers who are there to pick wickets in the middle overs; a lot depends on how they perform. Watch out for Josh Hazlewood in this game.

The fact that both teams have reached this stage means they are doing something good. One side is RR's consistent yet dependence on the top order to perform, on the other side is RCB's inconsistency and new match-winners in each game. It'll be a game to remember with Rajasthan as slight favorites.
