Mumbai: Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) will look to halt Rajasthan Royals' (RR) winning run when they lock horns in the match 13 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 on Tuesday here at Wankhede Stadium.
While Rajasthan are placed on top of the points tables with 2 wins to their name, RCB sits seventh with one win and a loss in their kitty.
RCB enjoying a 12-10 head-to-head record RR in the IPL. Bangalore have beaten Rajasthan in their last four meetings. Both the teams heading into the match with a win to their name.
While Rajasthan come into the game following their 23-run win over Mumbai Indians, Bangalore also enjoyed narrow three-wicket win over Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR).
For RR, all eyes would be on centurian and orange cap holder Jos Buttler. Shimron Hetmyer quickfires gave extra depth to the batting. In the bowling unit, Prasidh Krishna, Trent Boult, and Navdeep Saini can put break on RCB's line-up in the powerplay.
Bangalore has a plenty of depth in their batting line-up and Glenn Maxwell's addition to the squad will strengthen their batting unit.
Waninudu Hasaranga will continue the momentum from the last game against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) where he bagged four wickets after conceding just 20 runs in his four over quota.
On the other hand, Harshal Patel, who was quite economical against KKR will look to add wickets to his name along with his tight bowling.
