They have a well-balanced squad with a superb bowling attack. RR will hope to continue the winning momentum against RCB as they chase their second IPL trophy.
Royal Challengers Bangalore, on the other hand, have played well in patches. The 35-year-old Dinesh Karthik produced a blinder the other night to take the team over the target. Virat Kohli, who relinquished his leadership duties after IPL 2021, is yet to hit the blocks and will hope to put some runs under his belt against Sanju Samson and Co.
