Preview:

In the South Indian derby, Royal Challengers Bangalore will take on Chennai Super Kings in the 49^th match of the IPL 2022. Considering the context of the tournament, it’s a do-or-die game for both sides to reach the magical number 16. Royal Challengers are out of touch at the moment having lost three consecutive matches on the trot. Former skipper, Virat Kohli is back to his best of forms having scored a half-century against Titans though his strike rate wasn’t up to the mark that needs to be addressed. Still, death bowling is a huge concern for the red devils and they need to find solutions as soon.

Chennai Super Kings, on the other hand, look like a completely different unit under the leadership of MS Dhoni who is again back in as the captain. Ruturaj Gaikwad and Devon Conway put up 182 runs for the opening wicket against Sunrisers which set the tone for the men in yellow and later Mukesh Choudhary’s 4 wicket haul gave them 13 runs win in the end. With 3 wins and 6 losses, they are still at the 9^th spot in the standings with 6 points.
