NEW DELHI: The struggling
Royal Challengers Bengaluru
aim to reignite their campaign as they face the high-flying Rajasthan Royals in the 2024 Indian Premier League match at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur this Saturday.
Currently placed eighth on the 10-team points table with just one win in four matches, RCB seek a turnaround.
Meanwhile, the Rajasthan Royals have maintained a perfect record, winning all three of their matches so far.
Prior to the pivotal clash against the Rajasthan Royals, RCB’s star batsman
Virat Kohli
was captured in a cheerful mood. A video shared on the Rajasthan Royals’ social media platform showed Virat singing a song while embracing pacer Avesh Khan.
“Aisa mauka fir kaha milega,” Virat sings while hugging RR pacer Avesh.
The top-order of RCB, led by skipper Faf du Plessis alongside Glenn Maxwell, Cameron Green, and Rajat Patidar, boasts immense talent and explosive potential.
However, thus far, none of them have managed to consistently deliver, either individually or collectively, except for star batter Virat Kohli. Kohli, currently holding the Orange Cap with 203 runs and two fifties to his name, has been the standout performer.
As they head to the Sawai Man Singh Stadium, a venue that shares similarities with RCB’s home ground – Chinnaswamy Stadium – in terms of its smooth pitch and rapid outfield, the Bengaluru team will be eager for a change in fortunes, hoping that their batting lineup can capitalize on these favorable conditions.
