THE LOWDOWN
ROYAL CHALLENGERS BANGALORE
- Royal Challengers Bangalore will be hoping to use this match as a springboard to improving their home form moving forward, having won two and lost two of their four matches played so far at M.Chinnaswamy Stadium.
- As it stands, RCB are one of two teams in the 2023 IPL with an even 3-3 record thus far, after most recently winning on the road in Mohali against Punjab Kings by 24 runs.
RAJASTHAN ROYALS
- After being stopped in their tracks by Lucknow Super Giants, it will be interesting to see how Rajasthan Royals respond here at a ground which should suit their style of play.
- Spin bowler Yuzvendra Chahal will no doubt be looking forward to facing his former side, whilst the top order will be looking to fill their boots on what is likely to be an excellent pitch for batting.
THE PREDICTION
The big hitters within the Rajasthan Royals team, not least Jos Buttler will be licking their lips at the prospect of batting at M.Chinnaswamy Stadium with short boundaries and flat pitches a recipe for quick runs. Whilst RCB can match them on the hitting front, a bigger question mark lies within their bowling, who were taken to the cleaners by Chennai Super Kings the last time they played at home. You can trust the Rajasthan bowlers to make use of their experience and skills to maximum effect when protecting small boundaries and this may well lead to the Royals ultimately claiming victory.
