It’s a battle between the two teams at the bottom of the table and a win here would probably raise an outside chance to qualify for 7928the playoffs, provided a lot of other results go their way. India’s all-format skipper Virat Kohli leads RCB, while Steve Smith is in charge of RR.

Barring Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers, one RCB batsman that has been highly consistent in any given situation is their opener, Parthiv Patel. In 12 matches, he has 365 runs to his name at an average of 30.41. He has hit two half-centuries to his name and on most of the occasions, has been responsible to help his team get off to good totals in the power play. Against CSK, he scored a 37-ball 53 with two fours and four sixes and later ran out Shardul Thakur to earn a narrow 1-run victory over RCB off the last ball of the match, rendering MS Dhoni’s heroics in vain.
