Analysis
Royal Challengers Bangalore’s captain Faf Du Plessis and the Indian international Virat Kohli are providing great opening starts for the team so far in IPL 2023. Afterwards, there is nothing much to speak about RCB’s batting department as they have struggled to score runs in limited opportunities that came their way. The bowlers for Royal Challengers haven’t had the best time of it either as they have struggled to curtail runs against any and every opposition. The return to form for Mohammed Siraj and Karn Sharma has kept the RCB bowling attack afloat this season.
Chennai Super Kings opening pair of Ruturaj Gaikwad and Devon Conway has been a massive plus point for the franchise this season. The runs from the bat of Shivam Dube and Ambati Rayudu have eased the pressure on the middle order for CSK. MS Dhoni channelling his best-hitting form has been the biggest reason for the team looking in good shape irrespective of the results. The return of Maheesh Theekshana in the bowling department has also strengthened the CSK lineup.
