Rajasthan Royals will lock horns against Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the Eliminator contest at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad on Wednesday. While Royal Challengers Bengaluru have the winning impetus on their side, winning six on the trot, Rajasthan Royals’ season has gone south as they have lost their last four games.
RCB’s journey to the playoffs has been inspiring and they have reaped rewards for playing aggressively. The last six matches have been knockout games for them and the next three, if continue their winning march, will be the same.
Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis have done a magnificent job at the top of the order for RCB and they are once again going to hold the key. Rajat Patidar has provided the firepower in the middle order as he has been able to hit the ground running. Furthermore, their bowlers have executed their plans in a better way and they have been right on the money.
Meanwhile, Rajasthan Royals have veered off the track at this crucial phase of the tournament. The Royals were ticking all the right boxes as a unit in the first phase of the competition but they seem to be missing some pieces.
Jos Buttler’s absence is a big blow and the Royals will need to come up with a collective effort to go past the flying RCB.
Match Prediction: Royal Challengers Bengaluru will enter the contest as favorites against Rajasthan Royals.
