Royal Challengers Bengaluru will strive to break their losing streak as they welcome Sunrisers Hyderabad in a crucial IPL 2024 game at M Chinnaswamy Stadium on Monday. The highly-contested RCB vs SRH game will start at 7.30 PM.
Bengaluru tumbled to the bottom of the table after a seven-wicket loss while defending 197 against Mumbai in their previous outing. With just one victory in their first six matches, RCB must get a win against Hyderabad to keep their playoff aspirations.
On the other hand, Sunrisers Hyderabad enter this clash with momentum, claiming two consecutive victories. Led by Pat Cummins, the team sealed a nail-biting two-run triumph while defending 182 against Punjab Kings in their last fixture, their third win of the season. Currently, at the fifth spot in the points table, a win against RCB could propel them to second place.
