Match Details: RCB vs RR
RCB have one goal — to end their home hoodoo. Despite a dominant away record, Bengaluru’s famed fortress hasn’t been kind this season. Virat Kohli remains their rock, but it’s Rajat Patidar’s calm captaincy that’s sparked a late charge. Rajasthan Royals (RR), meanwhile, are in disarray. Four straight losses, an injured Sanju Samson, and a fragile middle order have dimmed their playoff hopes. But an exciting opening duo of Yashasvi Jaiswal and Vaibhav Suryavanshi offers something new. With the pitch easing and both teams chasing momentum, expect a tactical battle where early wickets and spin control could decide who keeps their campaign on track.
