Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB)

While GT is coming to the fixtures with four wins in the last four games, RCB is coming with two losses in the last two against SRH and RR.

V Kohli’s form is a concern for RCB and there will be a close eye on him by all the fans because it is also important in a long run for Team India in the ICC T20 World Cup as well. (GT vs RCB Preview)

Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) would want to go in the top 4 of the points table with a win tomorrow.

They are right now at No. 5 in the points table with 5 wins in 9 games. Their net run rate is -0.572.

They started their campaign with a loss against Punjab Kings (PBKS) in a high-scoring encounter.

But, they went on to win their next three games against KKR, RR, and MI. They lost against CSK, SRH, and RR and won against DC and LSG in the next 5 games.

Their middle order comprises D Karthik, S Ahmed, etc are doing well to win games for RCB.

Captain Faf du Plessis has also played a few innings. The only concern for RCB is the form of Virat Kohli.

Virat Kohli hasn’t found his mojo in quite a few times now. If the big guns of RCB (V Kohli, Faf du Plessis, G Maxwell) started to fire, RCB’s batting will be the one to watch out for. (GT vs RCB Preview)
