The upcoming match of the IPL 2024 will see Rajasthan Royals hosting the struggling Royal Challengers Bengaluru at Jaipur’s Sawai Mansingh Stadium on Saturday.
Under the leadership of Sanju Samson, the Royals have made a strong and impressive start to IPL 2024, securing three wins in their first three matches. In their recent game against Mumbai Indians at Wankhede Stadium, they successfully chased down a target of 126 runs, clinching victory by six wickets. This performance has propelled them to the second position on the points table.
In contrast, Royal Challengers Bengaluru has been grappling with momentum, managing just one win out of four games this season. Their last match against Lucknow Super Giants saw them being bowled out for 153 runs while chasing a target of 182. Consequently, they find themselves languishing in the eighth position on the points table.

Despite concerns over the poor form of players like Jos Buttler and Shimron Hetmyer, the Royals are likely to maintain their lineup unchanged against Bengaluru. On the other hand, Faf du Plessis-led RCB may look to Karn Sharma and Akash Deep to bring about a change in their fortunes in the upcoming game against the Royals.
