Rajasthan Royals vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru prediction

This is all set up to be a thrilling encounter between two exciting batting units, two high-performing bowling attacks and a showdown between young and old. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi faces Virat Kohli, something all IPL fans have been anticipating since the start of the tournament. However, the bowlers will have something to say about that as they look to steal the show.

One of those flamethrowers is Jofra Archer, who is fit and firing for Rajasthan. Whilst he hasn’t had the clump of wickets he’d have hoped, the England pacer is bowling well and it feels like just a matter of time before he breaks out with a big haul. It would be no surprise if Archer chooses a stage like this to do so and backing him to gain over 1.5 wickets is a move worth making.
