RCB vs GT: Momentum with Royal Challengers as they target playoff spot against resurgent GT
With two thumping wins against RR and SRH, RCB are back with a bang and have momentum. Batting and bowling is finally firing in unison, with Faf du Plessis and Mohammed Siraj, respectively, leading the charge.
The inclusion of Wayne Parnell in place of Hazlewood has also proven to be superb, with the South African picking up three wickets in two games. Virat Kohli is also back amongst runs, and RCB are looking menacing.
The only slight concern for the Faf du Plessis-led side is the middle order. Rawat, Lomror, Karthik, and Prabhudessai have not scored more than 150 runs. While Rawat shows glimpses of his hitting ability against RR, consistency is what
RCB would be looking at. Meanwhile, GT have followed the template of last season, and are looking well on course to defend their crown this year as well.
Different players have chipped in vital contributions with bat and ball, and that has been a cornerstone of their nine wins this season. Shubman Gill has taken the onus in batting, while Rashid Khan is the top wicket-taker with 21 scalps.
