Match Preview
In the 52nd match of the IPL 2024, Royal Challengers Bengaluru are all set to host their last match’s rival, Gujarat Titans. The fixture is set to take place on May 4, at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium. Bengaluru are coming on the back of a spectacular nine-wicket win over the 2022 winners in the game they played on April 28.
RCB registered their second back-to-back win, and third overall win of the season as they beat GT in the last game. While they continue to sit at the bottom of the standings, their performance has been nothing less than exemplary in the past few games. Gujarat Titans, on the flip side, continued their below-par campaign, as they wander on the eighth spot with just four wins in the account.
Toss Prediction
Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Gujarat Titans have already clashed against each other in the 17th edition of the tournament. In their last clash at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, visiting captain Faf du Plessis won the toss over Shubman Gill. Considering this and the odds, we think Gill is likely to come on top over Du Plessis as GT visits Bengaluru on Saturday.
Win Possibility
Gujarat and Bengaluru have already battled it out in the ongoing edition of the cash-rich league, where the visitors maintained a clear edge over their counterparts and registered a nine-wicket win. With this, the Bengaluru-based franchise levelled their win tally against GT 2-2 in four matches they played in the past seasons.
Needless to say, Gujarat is a stronger team on paper, but the way their form slumped in the last few games has been concerning. In addition, RCB bounced back in the season like anything and recorded remarkable wins in the last two games. Given their form, we think RCB will emerge victorious in the upcoming game and extend their tally to four wins.
Predicted Powerplay Score and Average First Inning Score
The M. Chinnaswamy Stadium of Bengaluru is known to be a high-scoring ground. The cricketing venue hosted a total of 90 IPL games thus far and has first innings score of 172. In the upcoming clash between Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Gujarat Titans, we can expect the first-inning score to be around 180-190 and powerplay to be around 60-65.
