BENGALURU: Saturday’s match between RCB and CSK will be played on the same strip on which RCB hosted PBKS and KKR. RCB won the first tie and went down to KKR, who chased down 182 with plenty to spare. Needless to say, death bowling on either side will be crucial.
RCB have upped their game in the latter half of the season while CSK — in the absence of Matheesha Pathirana and Mustafizur Rahman — have worked around their lack of resources, with Simranjeet Singh emerging as one of the takeaways.
