In the Indian Premier League 2022 (IPL 2022), the team of Rajasthan Royals (RR), captained by Sanju Samson, who is in excellent form, will face the Royal Challengers Bangalore, captained by Faf du Plessis. Rajasthan team would like to score a hat-trick of victory by registering victory in this match. The team is at the top of the points table by winning two out of two matches. On the other hand, the Bangalore team is at the seventh position after winning one out of two.
The team under the captaincy of Sanju Samson looks very strong. Jos Buttler and Yashasvi Jaiswal are opening. Butler is in excellent form and he also scored a century in the match against Mumbai. Jaiswal has not been seen in the rhythm yet. On the other hand, Devdutt Padkal and Sanju Samson are batting brilliantly. Shimron Hetmyer has also done well. Riyan Parag hasn’t got that much batting opportunity yet.
Talking about the bowling, the famous Krishna and Trent Boult are wreaking havoc against the batsmen of the opposing team with their balls. Yuzvendra Chahal’s spin is also going well. Ravichandran Ashwin may not have got many wickets but he has also bowled tightly. The problem with the team is the lack of all-rounders. Apart from Nathan Coulter-Nile, the team has Jimmy Neesham.
Talking about Bangalore, Anuj Rawat is opening the innings with captain Faf du Plessis. Former captain Virat Kohli comes at number three. Next comes Dinesh Karthik, who has performed brilliantly so far. Anuj Rawat has failed in both the matches, but the team can give him another chance. All-rounder Glenn Maxwell has joined the team, but he will not be able to play in today’s match.
In fact, Cricket Australia has ordered that Kangaroo players will not be able to play in the IPL until the Pakistan tour is over. In such a situation, the team will be able to get their service only after April 6. Talking about the bowlers, the team has Harshal Patel and Mohammad Siraj. Apart from this, there is David Willey and Shahbaz Ahmed and Akashdeep. The performance of all three has not been anything special so far.
