Rajasthan Royals vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru Team Preview & Squads

Rajasthan Royals

The Sanju Samson team is not very confident going into this match. In the final game, they were tied with the Kolkata Knight Riders for points due to inclement weather. They are in a do-or-die situation and need to get back on track after dropping their last four games. Samson will be looking for a solid performance from his players in this match because they are playing against a side that is riding high.  

To succeed in this matchup against Yashasvi Jaiswal, Tom Kohler-Cadmore needs to step into Jos Buttler’s large shoes and start the game strongly. Samson intends to take the lead and form alliances with Dhruv Jurel and Riyan Parag. The squad anticipates strong hitting from Rovman Powell, Ravichandran Ashwin, and Shimron Hetmyer during the game.

In this game, the bowling attack will be put to the test, and Trent Boult and Nandre Burger will need to produce well with the new ball. The two most crucial bowlers in this attack are Yuzvendra Chahal and Ashwin, and they need to perform well in the middle overs. Avesh Khan and Sandeep Sharma are eager to deliver a strong performance in the supporting part.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru

The squad led by Faf du Plessis has silenced all cricket commentators with one of the most remarkable comebacks in IPL history. They finished ahead of the Chennai Super Kings on the points table after defeating them by 27 runs in their last game. The club had only triumphed once in its first eight games, but this was its sixth straight victory. The captain of the RCB would hope to capitalize on this trend and lead his team to victory in the second qualifier.  

Given that Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis have both had strong openings to games recently, the team anticipates fireworks from them. The trio of Rajat Patidar, Cameroon Green, and Dinesh Karthik will try to make alliances as the middle order has been playing well. The side’s batting force is bolstered by Glenn Maxwell and Mahipal Lamror.

Glenn Maxwell and Mohammed Siraj will need to play effectively with the new ball because the Rajasthan Royals’ top order hasn’t played well lately. Yash Dayal would be feeling good after bowling the final over that won the match against CSK. In the middle overs with Lockie Ferguson and Swapnil Singh, he needs to bowl tight lines. Karn Sharma and Green give the attack more nuance.

On May 22, Ahmedabad will experience sunny skies, making the game’s conditions ideal. 

Fast bowlers will find it difficult to get help on this field, which will be favorable for batting. To feel comfortable on this surface, the team batting first in the match would aim for 190 or above.
