Here at InsideSport, we look at these five riveting dream matchups which might define the outcome of the game.

Insidesport

1. Virat Kohli vs Trent Boult

Virat Kohli just got back to form at an opportune time. He scored a match-winning 73 against GT and made a statement of sorts. The former RCB skipper struggled against LSG in the eliminator and scored a patchy 24. Kohli would like to bounce back against RR and play defining innings. The task won’t be easy as he will be up against Trent Boult.

The RR pacer has been superb in the power play and has provided breakthroughs for the team. Kohli has to be watchful of the left-arm pacer’s incoming deliveries and try to see him off. Boult has dismissed the RCB batter three times in recent international matches from 2019.

  1. Wanindu Hasaranga vs Sanju Samson

RCB leading wicket-taker in IPL 2022 Wanindu Hasaranga has been exceptional in the middle overs of the innings. He has taken 17 wickets (the most by a bowler) in this year’s IPL. Hasaranga’s flatter googlies have been hard to pick by the batters. So far, the leg spinner has taken 25 wickets and will be looking to add more to the tally.

Up against the RCB leg spinner will be RR skipper Sanju Samson. The right-hand batter thrives on playing the spinners and aims to go big against them. That has also brought his downfall as he has been dismissed by Hasaranga five times in T20Is. The RCB leg spinner has only conceded 18 runs against Samson.

  1. Harshal Patel vs Shimron Hetmyer

RR finisher Shimron Hetmyer has been a revelation for the team with his big hits in the IPL 2022. The southpaw has scored 301 runs at a superb strike-rate of 159.26. Hetmyer is very lethal in the death overs and can change the complexion of the game within a blink of an eye. Hetmyer has to bring his A-game against RCB in the Qualifier.

This time, he must be watchful of RCB’s death over specialist Harshal Patel. He has been exceptional in the backend of the innings conceding only 7 runs per over. This contest could very well define the outcome of the game.

Insidesport

  1. Chahal vs Maxwell

RCB’s all-rounder Glenn Maxwell has not hit top gear for the team this season. He has been inconsistent and has been out in 20s and 30s more often. Maxwell though is a terrific player of spin and can take on RR’s spin duos Ashwin and Chahal. If the RCB batter gets going then RR will be in huge trouble.

Chahal can limit the damage as he has a favorable match-up against Maxwell. The leg spinner has dismissed the RCB batter five times conceding 120 runs in 70 balls.

Karthik vs Ashwin

RCB’s finisher Dinesh Karthik has been phenomenal for the team in the death overs. The wicketkeeper batter has scored 324 runs at a strike rate of 187.28. His strike rate has been the best for a batter who have scored more than 300 runs. Whenever he has remained unbeaten RCB have won games. Karthik will like to continue a similar assault against Ashwin.

He was up against the RR off-spinner in the league stage and the RCB finisher came on top. He scored 20 runs and killed the run chase in some style.
