Royal Challengers Bangalore will be facing Rajasthan Royals in Pune after a humiliating defeat to SunRisers Hyderabad in their previous game. The last time when these two sides met each other RCB ended up winning by 4 wickets at the Wankhade Stadium. RR have lost only 1 game so far while batting first and that came against RCB during their earlier meeting in IPL 2022.
RR has been riding on the sensational form of Jos Buttler with the bat while their spin duo Yuzvendra Chahal and Ravichandran Ashwin has been doing well in tandem to put pressure on the opponent. Skipper Sanju Samson's quick-fire innings in the last few games has been a key factor for RR to boost their total and this contest is also expected to be a high-scoring thriller.
