Royal Challengers Bengaluru will take on Sunrisers Hyderabad at the M.Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru on Monday. The same old problems have resurfaced for RCB in the ongoing season as they are tottering at the bottom of the points table with a solitary win in six matches.
SRH, on the other hand, have got off to a decent start, winning three and losing two out of their five games. We take a look at the head-to-head battle, players to watch out for, and squads of both teams in our match preview.
Sunrisers Hyderabad: W W L W L
SRH has been led beautifully by Pat Cummins, who has delivered as a bowler too. The young players like Abhishek Sharma, and Nitish Kumar Reddy have also stepped up for the Orange Army along with their potent overseas batters.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: L L L L W
RCB has lost their last four matches on the trot and their confidence must be all-time low. As the bowling has lacked penetration, the extra onus is on the batters to get them a few more runs. However, the players like Cameron Green and Glenn Maxwell are yet to join the party.
Head to Head: Matches: 23, Won by SRH: 12, Won by RCB: 10, Abandoned: 1.
Players to look out for: Pat Cummins, Rahul Tripathi, Abhishek Sharma, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Washington Sundar, Heinrich Klaasen, Aiden Markram, and Travis Head will be the crucial players for SRH.
Mohammed Siraj, Virat Kohli, Faf du Plessis, Cameron Green, Rajat Patidar, Dinesh Karthik and Glenn Maxwell will hold the key for RCB.
