Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Rajasthan Royals (RCB vs RR): It will be an Eliminator match between the two sides who were on opposite sides of the points table in the first 9 matches. Rajasthan Royals were at the top of the table, and Royal Challengers Bengaluru were at the bottom of the table; since then, it’s all changed as RCB won the last six matches and RR lost all four.
Team Preview of Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Rajasthan Royals
Royal Challengers Bengaluru just did the impossible as they qualified for the Eliminator even when they had a 1% chance after playing the first eight matches, but then they won six matches in a row. On the other hand, Rajasthan was just not able to win any match, and they lost the last four matches in the IPL, which is a concern for them now, but they still have a chance to win against the RCB team.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru won their last match against the Chennai Super Kings, who were the favorite to win. RCB kept themselves intact and won the match on the conditions, which was just an amazing performance by them. The way Yash Dayal kept his cool, who was smashed for 5 sixes in a row in the last over against the Kolkata Knight Riders last year, made a comeback and saved 17 runs in the last over.
In the last match between RCB and CSK, M.S. Dhoni did not wait long to shake hands because RCB players kept on celebrating, which made Dhoni a bit furious as he went back to his dressing room after shaking hands with some of the RCB support staff.
Rajasthan Royals’ last match was washed out, but before that, they lost four matches, and then they lost the match against the Punjab Kings by five wickets. The batting unit of Rajasthan Royals is not performing well, causing them to keep failing to win.
We needed a few more runs. I think we were 10-15 runs short. It was a 160 kind of a wicket. We would have easily got more than 160 (had we played better), that’s where we lost the game. Would have been nice to have one more bowling option.
I am getting used to five quality bowlers. We have to sit back and accept that we are going through failures, have lost four games on the trot. Got to find out what’s not working out for us as a team. Somebody needs to step up, we have so many match-winners in the team. This is the time we need to show character. We need to score more runs. We thought 160-170 would have been a good score.
