In the most recent game played at home, neither the bat nor the bowl contributed significantly. Mohammed Siraj is in top form and consistently taking wickets in the powerplay.

RCB can be a tough challenge for the hosts, and there are some high-quality bowling options. They require Faf and Maxwell to restart and score a significant run in the first 12-15 overs.

In order to help his team cross the line, Kohli needs to play a longer knock than he has in the past. While Mahipal Lomror has shown promise and has the ability to score runs quickly, this lineup’s Big Three are crucial.
