RR’s Blazing Start
Sanju Samson’s men have been in blistering form, winning all three of their matches so far against Lucknow Super Giants, Delhi Capitals, and Mumbai Indians. Their batting has fired on all cylinders, led by the swashbuckling Jos Buttler and the talented Yashasvi Jaiswal. The bowling attack has also been impressive, with the experienced Trent Boult and the wily Yuzvendra Chahal leading the charge.
RCB’s Inconsistent Campaign
In contrast, Faf du Plessis’ RCB have had an up-and-down campaign, winning just one of their four matches. While Virat Kohli has been in good form with two fifties, the rest of the batting unit has failed to click consistently. The bowling has also struggled, with Mohammed Siraj and Alzarri Joseph lacking penetration upfront.
