THA-W vs UAE-W Match Prediction & Analysis The ICC Women’s T20 World Cup Asia Qualifier 2025 league games are over, and we are now in the Super Three. The first Super 3 game would see the Thailand Women take on the United Arab Emirates Women. Both teams have finished at the top in their respective groups and shall draw confidence from it. They will look to win here and improve their prospects of reaching the T20 World Cup.   Thailand Women have been in excellent form in the last 12 months. The team has lost only once in the last 15 games the side has played. They will look to use this momentum to win another game. The United Arab Emirates doesn’t have a great record against Thailand, which will be on their minds. It will be interesting to see if the team can overcome it in this game. TEAMS PREVIEW Thailand Women Preview Naruemol Chaiwai and her girls will be fairly confident heading into the game. The team has finished at the top of the points table in the group and hasn’t lost a game. The batting lineup is in good form, and the bowling attack has also troubled the batters. They are up against a strong team, and Chaiwai expects a strong show from her players.   Aphisara Suwanchonrathi and Sunida Chaturongrattana have batted well at the top, and the team expects an explosive start. In the middle order, Naruemol Chaiwai will look to lead from the front and add runs with Chanida Sutthiruang and Natthakan Chantham. Nannapat Koncharoenkai and Suwanan Khiaoto add strength to the batting lineup in the lower middle order.   Chanida Sutthiruang and Phannita Maya have bowled well at the start, and the team expects early strikes from them to put the United Arab Emirates under pressure. Thipatcha Putthawong and Onnicha Kamchomphu must keep up the pressure in the middle overs. The team needs a strong show from Suleeporn Laomi and Sunida Chaturongrattana in the supporting role.  United Arab Emirates Women Preview Esha Rohit Oza and her side have done well in this tournament. Though the side has had to share points in the last two games abandoned by rain, they have dominated the opponents in the other two. Oza would like to use this momentum as they are up against their strongest opponent in this tournament.   Esha Rohit Oza has led from the front in this tournament and will look to deliver a confident start with Theertha Satish. Indhuja Nandakumar, Heena Hotchandani, and Vaishnave Mahesh haven’t had much to do in the middle order, and the team expects them to deliver a strong show. Michelle Botha and Udeni Dona will look to do well in the lower middle order.   The bowling attack will face a test in this game, and the team expects early wickets from Michelle Botha and Heena Hotchandani. Katie Thompson and Esha Rohit Oza must check the scoring rate in the middle overs. Indhuja Nandakumar and Vaishnave Mahesh complete a well-balanced attack for the team. Weather Conditions It will be overcast skies over Bangkok, and we will likely see a slow wicket, as we have seen in earlier games. Batters would struggle here and have to play to the merit of the ball. A score above 140 runs would be good for the side batting first.  THA-W vs UAE-W Pitch Report Terdthai Cricket Ground, Bangkok, is a tough wicket for the batters as the ball doesn’t come onto the bat nicely. Fast bowlers will have some assistance from the surface and look to take advantage of it. It has been a good hunting ground for spinners in the past. Toss: To Bowl We expect a slow wicket and rain disruption. In a rain-curtailed game, the side chasing the score has an advantage. Both teams will have this on their minds at the toss and choose to bowl first on winning the toss.

PSZ vs KRK Match Prediction & Analysis Peshawar Zalmi lockhorns against Karachi Kings in match 27 of Pakistan Super League (PSL) on Saturday, 17th May, 2025. The match is slated to be played at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, Rawalpindi and the scheduled start time is 20:30 PM IST.  Peshawar Zalmi are coming off a 7 wicket win over Multan Sultans where they bowled out the SUltans for 108 runs and then chased down the target in 13 overs. On the other hand Karachi Kings are coming off a 4 wicket win over the Lahore Qalandars in a rain affected game where they chased down 168  runs with 3 balls to spare.  Current Standings – Karachi Kings stand at 2nd place with 10 points in 8 matches ( 5 wins & 3 losses) and on the other hand Peshawar Zalmi stand at 5th place with 8 points in 8 matches (4 wins & 4 losses).  TEAMS PREVIEW Peshawar Zalmi Preview Peshawar Zalmi have experienced a season of fluctuating fortunes. After a sluggish start, dropping two of their initial three fixtures, they’ve shown resilience with three victories in their subsequent five outings. They currently ride a two-match winning streak, their most recent triumph coming against the Multan Sultans. Electing to bowl first, Peshawar Zalmi put in a disciplined bowling performance, bundling out the Sultans for a modest total of 108 runs in 19.1 overs. Right-arm medium pacer Ahmed Daniyal spearheaded the attack, claiming impressive figures of 3 for 17.  Left-arm spinner Maaz Sadaqat (2 for 12) and left-arm seamer Luke Wood (2 for 18) provided excellent support. The Zalmi then made light work of the chase, reaching the target comfortably within 13 overs. Opening batsman Saim Ayub struck a fluent 49 off 33 deliveries, while overseas recruit Max Bryant provided the finishing touches with an aggressive unbeaten knock of 38 from just 20 balls. Mitchell Owen, who recently signed with Punjab Kings, has departed the Peshawar Zalmi squad. However, the remainder of their international contingent is expected to stay on. Left-arm pacer Luke Wood, who had returned to England, is now en route to rejoin the Zalmi setup, though his availability against the Kings will be a game-time decision. Karachi Kings Preview The Karachi Kings have showcased dominant form this season, demonstrating strength with both bat and ball and emerging victorious in tight contests. Impressively, out of their five wins, the Kings have secured three while chasing and two when setting a total. In their most recent encounter, the Karachi Kings opted to bowl first and conceded 160 runs for the loss of 8 wickets in their allotted 15 overs. Abbas Afridi was the only bowler to escape punishment, finishing with figures of 4 wickets for 27 runs in his 3-over spell, while the other bowlers faced some aggressive hitting.  The Kings’ opening pair of David Warner (24 runs) and Tim Seifert (24 runs) provided a solid foundation with a 40-run opening stand. However, it was Irfan Khan who played a scintillating innings, smashing 48 runs off just 21 balls, including five towering sixes, to propel the Kings to a memorable victory. James Vince has been the linchpin of the Kings’ batting lineup, amassing 294 runs in 8 matches at an impressive average of 42. He has already notched up one century and two half-centuries. Tim Seifert has also been in fine form, scoring 200 runs at a striking strike rate of 144.92. Conversely, their captain, David Warner, hasn’t quite found his peak form and has had a relatively quiet season thus far, scoring 164 runs at an average of just 20.5. In the bowling attack, Abbas Afridi leads the wicket-takers with 15 scalps, closely followed by Hasan Ali with 14 wickets. Hasan Ali has proven to be particularly potent with the new ball and has displayed excellent control over his variations in the death overs. The late inclusion of veteran Afghan all-rounder Mohammad Nabi into the playing eleven has been a masterstroke, as he has picked up 7 crucial wickets while maintaining an exceptionally economical bowling rate of 5.90 runs per over. Weather Conditions The weather at Rawalpindi on Saturday, 17th May is expected to be around 38Β°C and the wind blowing at 6 km/hr and 15% humidity.  The pitch at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium heavily favors the batters, making it a high-scoring venue. The average first innings score across the 7 matches played this season is a substantial 216 runs. Notably, scores exceeding 200 have been achieved 6 times when batting first this season. In stark contrast, not a single game has seen a score surpass 160 runs in the second innings. Toss: To Bat Teams batting first have dominated at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium this season, winning 6 out of the 7 matches played. Chasing has proven challenging at this venue, as the pitch tends to slow down slightly, making it difficult for batters to time their shots effectively. Therefore, we anticipate that the team winning the toss will opt to bat first.

USA vs CAN Match Prediction & Analysis United States of America (USA) square off against Canada in match 68 of ICC Cricket World Cup League 2 on Saturday, 17th May. The match is slated to be played at Central Broward Regional Park Stadium Turf Ground, Lauderhill and the scheduled start time is 7:30 PM IST.  United States of America (USA) are coming on the back of a 57 run victory over Oman in their last outing in February earlier this year on their tour to Oman. Canada are coming on the back of a 12 runs loss (DLs method) against Namibia at Windhoek.  Current Standings – USA currently sits in 2nd position on the league table with 22 points from 16 matches, boasting a record of 11 wins, 5 losses. Meanwhile, Canada finds themselves at 4th position with 20 points from 16 matches, having secured 9 victories, suffered 5 defeats and 2 no-results.  TEAMS PREVIEW United States of America Preview The United States of America (USA) has been a dominant force in the ICC Cricket World Cup League 2, securing 11 victories and winning four of their last five encounters. In this cycle, the USA has outplayed some top teams like Nepal and Namibia. One of their most emphatic wins came against Oman, where they bundled them out for 122 runs and then dismissed them cheaply for 65 runs. Of the USA’s 11 wins, they secured 7 while setting a target and 4 while chasing. Conversely, out of their 5 losses, three occurred when chasing and two when batting first. This clearly indicates the USA’s greater comfort in batting first and then defending totals. In this cycle, USA’s captain Monank Patel has been leading from the front with a staggering 620 runs in 16 matches, maintaining a healthy average of 44.28. He has notched up 7 half-centuries and one century. Notably, he boasts a superb record against Canada, scoring 156 runs in 3 matches at an impressive average of 78, with a highest score of 147. Milind Kumar (481 runs), Sai Teja Mukkamalla (454 runs), and Andries Gous (344 runs) have been key contributors with the bat for the USA. Canada Preview Canada has experienced a mixed bag of results in their recent tour to Namibia, with two matches ending in no result, two wins, and one loss. Overall, Canada has secured 9 wins in this cycle but has unfortunately lost both their games against the USA. Looking at those 9 wins, Canada has shown strength as a chasing side, winning 5 matches while chasing a target and 4 matches when setting a target. They also clinched one victory in a Super Over after a tied match. However, their 5 losses reveal a struggle while chasing, with 4 defeats occurring in such situations and one loss when batting first. Harsh Thaker has been the standout batter, leading Canada’s run-scoring chart with 519 runs in 15 matches at a solid average of 47.18 and a strike rate of 71.98. He has smashed 2 centuries and 2 half-centuries. Pargat Singh is the second-highest run-scorer with 434 runs in 14 matches, averaging 36.16. Left-handed batter Nicholas Kirton is the other batter to surpass the 300-run mark.S In the bowling department, right-arm medium-quick Dillion Heyliger has been exceptional and is the leading wicket-taker with 29 wickets in 15 matches. Kaleem Sana is the second-highest wicket-taker with 24 wickets in 14 matches. These two pace bowlers have been Canada’s key bowlers with the new ball and in the death overs. Saad Bin Zafar has had an inconsistent run, managing to pick up 17 wickets in 15 matches. Weather Conditions The weather at Lauderhill on Saturday, 17th May is expected to be around 25Β°C and clear skies with no chance of rain and the wind blowing at 3 km/hr and 86% humidity.  USA vs CAN Pitch Report The pitch at Central Broward Regional Park Stadium, Lauderhill offers a balanced track that favours both the batters and bowlers. The average 1st innings score at this venue is 219 runs. Fast bowlers are effective at this venue with the new ball and as the game progresses spinners come into play big time.  Toss: To Bowl Central Broward Regional Park Stadium, Lauderhill, has seen an even split of ODI results, with three wins apiece for teams batting first and second. Considering Canada’s strength in chasing and USA’s prowess in defending, both sides might prefer to assess the pitch first. Therefore, the toss-winning captain is likely to opt to bowl first.

LSG vs SRH Match Prediction & Analysis Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) face off against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in Match 61 of IPL 2025 this Monday in Ekana. LSG have picked up 10 points from 11 matches and sit in seventh place. Their playoff hopes are still alive, but hanging by a threadβ€”one more loss and it’s all over. Sunrisers, meanwhile, are already out of the running and will aim to wrap up their season on a positive note with a couple of strong results. TEAMS PREVIEW Lucknow Super Giants Preview Lucknow Super Giants have had a choppy run this IPLβ€”five wins, six losses, and sitting seventh with a rough NRR of -0.469. They’ve managed a few impressive wins but haven’t stitched together any real momentum. With three straight defeats behind them, they’ll need to win all of their remaining gamesβ€”and do it with big marginsβ€”if they want to keep their playoff hopes alive. There have been a few positives in their underpar campaign. Aiden Markram is starting to find rhythm. He’s looked more assured at the crease lately and has put up 348 runs in 11 innings, striking at 147β€”the third-best rate in the squad. Mitchell Marsh and Nicholas Pooran have done most of the heavy lifting with the bat. Marsh has scored 378 in 10 innings at 155.55, including four fifties. Pooran’s been a level aboveβ€”410 runs in 11 knocks at a strike rate of 201. If LSG are going to get a big score, odds are one of these three will be at the center of it. Beyond them, the batting’s been shaky. Rishabh Pant’s form has dippedβ€”just 128 runs from 10 gamesβ€”and the middle order hasn’t brought much to the table. David Miller hasn’t looked comfortable either, struggling to find any rhythm. Still, Ayush Badoni and Abdul Samad have played their part with some handy cameos, adding late runs that’ve made a difference more than once. With the ball, Avesh Khan has led the pace attack. He’s taken 10 wickets in 10 matches and stepped up at the death. Ravi Bishnoi’s had a rougher seasonβ€”nine wickets in 10 games and going at 10.41 an over. Digvesh Rathi, though, has stood out with 12 in 12 and an economy of just 8.09. If there’s any grip in the surface, he could be in business again. Sunrisers Hyderabad Preview Sunrisers Hyderabad are out of playoff contention, and honestly, that tracks with how their season’s played outβ€”frustrating and flat. They’ve managed just three wins from 11 games and will now try to salvage a bit of pride with a couple of wins at the end. When their top order fires, they look like a different team. But more often than not, early wickets have derailed them. So, the burden’s once again on Abhishek Sharma and Travis Head to get them off to a good start. Abhishek has had some bright momentsβ€”like his 141 off 88 against Punjab and 74 off 41 against GTβ€”but he hasn’t been able to maintain consistency. Head’s form has dipped badly, and that’s been a major hurdle. In the middle order, Heinrich Klaasen, Ishan Kishan, and Nitish Kumar haven’t done much damage on a consistent basis, but all three have played the occasional sharp innings. If just one of them gets going, it could be enough to turn things around in a game. Aniket Verma’s been a rare bright spot. He’s hitting at a strike rate of 154 and has been reliable towards the back end of the innings. He knows how to finish. Weather Conditions Ekana isn’t the kind of pitch where you can start swinging from ball one. Batters usually do better when they take some time to get used to the surface. Scoring picks up once they’ve found their rhythm. As the game wears on, the pitch slows and can start acting up a bit, which puts spinners in the mix during the middle stages. For pacers, there’s not much on offer, so they’ll need to rely on slower ones and cutters to keep things under control.  The hot Lucknow weather will test stamina, though the forecast looks clear. LSG vs SRH Pitch Report The average first-innings score at Ekana is around 166. KKR set the highest score here last season with 235/6 against LSG, winning by a massive 98 runs. With the way the pitch has behaved so far in IPL 2025, teams batting first should be thinking 190 or more to stay in control. Toss: To Bowl Four of the five matches played at Ekana in IPL 2025 have been won by the chasing side, indicating clearly that this venue favors the chasing side.

πŒπ€π“π‚π‡ :​ Delhi Capitals vs Gujarat Titans 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : May 18,Sundayβ€‹π“πˆπŒπ„ : 19:30 PM IST​​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ Arun Jaitley Stadium, Central Delhi, India π“πŽπ”π‘ππ€πŒπ„ππ“ :​ Indian Premier League 2025 The last time Delhi Capitals played Gujarat Titans was in the first half of IPL 2025, when Delhi wrapped up a comfortable win by 7 wickets. Delhi Capitals vs Gujarat Titans TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. DC vs GT Match Prediction & Analysis Delhi Capitals (DC) take on Gujarat Titans (GT) in Match 60 of IPL 2025 this Sunday in Delhi. DC have picked up six wins from 11 games and currently hold fifth place with 13 points. Gujarat, on the other hand, lead the standings with 16 points from 11 matches and are all but certain to reach the playoffs. A loss here could put Delhi in a tight spot. Gujarat have been in solid form and carry more momentum heading into this one, which gives them the advantage in what’s expected to be a tough contest. RECENT PERFORMANCE TEAMS PREVIEW Delhi Capitals Preview Delhi Capitals are still in the race for the playoffsβ€”six wins, four losses, sitting fifth at the moment. They opened strong this season, taking five wins from their first six, but it’s been a rough stretch since, with just one win in the last five games. At 12 points from 11 matches, they’re in a tight spot now. Another slip-up could really hurt their chances, so this one’s got added pressure. The timing isn’t ideal either. There’s still no word on whether Faf du Plessis will be back after the break. Tristan Stubbs, however, will be back for the rest of the league phase. If Faf remains out, it’ll fall on the Indian players to push the team forward. KL Rahul will need to be at the front of that effort. He’s been calm but assertiveβ€”381 runs from nine innings at a strike rate of 142.16. Abishek Porel has done well at the top too, piling up 265 runs in 11 games with a strike rate of 150. Axar Patel has stepped in when needed, especially during wobbling middle overs, adding runs that helped settle things. He, along with Stubb,s will be crucial from overs 10-20. Ashutosh Sharma has chipped in late, hitting quick runs to keep the innings moving when the pressure’s been on. Gujarat Titans Preview Gujarat Titans have been one of the steadiest sides in IPL 2025, collecting 16 points from 11 games to sit at the top of the table. With a playoff spot nearly in the bag, they’ll be aiming to lock in a top-two finish to get two chances at making the final. While the one-week suspension caused overseas player issues for several teams, Gujarat haven’t had much to worry about. Jos Buttler and Gerald Coetzee were the only ones who left India after the pause, and both are expected back before the next game. Rashid Khan, Sherfane Rutherford, Kagiso Rabada, and Karim Janat stayed back with the team during the break. GT look balanced across departments, and both units are firing smoothly. At the top, Sai Sudharsan, Shubman Gill, and Jos Buttler have been piling on the runs, each going past 500 for the season. The form of this trio has been a huge factor in Gujarat’s dominance, and there’s no doubt they’ll be central again. In the middle, Rutherford has quietly put together 229 runs in eight knocks at a strike rate of 159. Rahul Tewatia, as usual, has chipped in during the final stretch of innings with his handy cameos. The bowlers have kept their end of the bargain, too. Mohammed Siraj and Prasidh Krishna have taken 35 wickets between them, and Sai Kishore has picked up 14 while maintaining control with an economy of 8.37. In a further boost to the team, Kagiso Rabada is all set to be back for GT for the remaining league games. The South African speedster’s presence will further bolster an already strong bowling unit. Rashid Khan is also beginning to find his rhythm again. If the pitch suits them, this bowling unit could make an impact once more. Weather Conditions The surface at Arun Jaitley Stadium is generally flat and settles well once the lights come on. It’s a ground where batters can trust the bounce and get good reward for timing, especially with shots played square. Spinners may find a bit of help later in the game, but it’s usually nothing major, so expect the bat to have the upper hand. Delhi’s weather will be warm and sticky, but there’s no rain in the forecast. The average first innings score at Delhi’s Arun Jaitley Stadium sits at 170. The highest total recorded at the venue in IPL 2025 is 205-5 by Mumbai Indians against the home side, a game they won by 12 runs. Expect another high-scoring game with both teams targeting a total of over 200 to feel confident. Toss: To Bat Three of the four matches played at Arun Jaitley Stadium in IPL 2025 have been won by the team batting first. Going by these numbers, it’s clear that batting first is advantageous on this venue.

United Arab Emirates vs Bangladesh, UAE vs BAN 2025, Today Match Prediction

πŒπ€π“π‚π‡ :​ United Arab Emirates vs Bangladesh 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : May 17,Saturdayβ€‹π“πˆπŒπ„ : 20:30 PM IST​​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ Sharjah Cricket Stadium, Sharjah, United Arab Emirates π“πŽπ”π‘ππ€πŒπ„ππ“ :​ 1st T20 2025 Bangladesh have come out on top in all three of their T20I matchups against UAE so far. UAE vs BAN Match Prediction & Analysis Bangladesh head to Sharjah for a two-match T20I series against UAE, starting Saturday at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium. The home side carries strong momentum into the series and will back themselves to put in a good performance. That said, they’ve never beaten Bangladesh before, and with far more experience in T20 cricket, the visitors start this short tour with the upper hand. TEAMS PREVIEW United Arab Emirates Preview UAE have been making fast progress in the T20I scene. Their most recent success came at the Gulf T20I Championship 2024/25 in Dubai, which featured Oman, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, and Qatar. They won four out of five matches and took the title after a tight two-wicket win over Kuwait in the final. Muhammad Waseem is back at the helm for the two-match series against Bangladesh and is expected to be the driving force at the top. He was in excellent form in the Gulf Championship, scoring 221 runs in six innings with an average of 44.20 and a strike rate of 148.32. Middle-order player Asif Khan and wicket-keeper batter Rahul Chopra are two others who’ve been among the runs lately and could add solid contributions. With the ball, Muhammad Jawadullah is expected to lead the pace department. He’ll have support from left-arm spinner Simranjeet Singh, who has been reliable in the middle overs. Dhruv Parashar, known for his steady lines and lengths, is another one who could be effective on this pitch. Bangladesh Preview Bangladesh head into this series looking to turn around their fortunes in white-ball cricket, which haven’t been great lately. They exited the T20 World Cup 2024 without a single win and followed that up with a 0-3 drubbing in India. However, they bounced back by sweeping West Indies 3-0 at home at the end of last year and will want to build on that. Litton Das leads a well-rounded squad with plenty of promise. Along with him, Parvez Hossain Emon and Tanzid Hasan are expected to be the main run-getters at the top. Jaker Ali, who finished as the highest scorer against West Indies, is another name to keep an eye on. He’s shown he can hold the innings together and also shift gears when needed. With the ball, Mustafizur Rahman will be central to Bangladesh’s plans. The surface here should work well for the experienced seamer’s variations, especially the cutters and slower balls he uses so well at the death. Tanzim Hasan Sakib and Hasan Mahmud, with their pace and bounce, will keep the pressure on and are strong bets for wickets. Weather Conditions The pitch at Sharjah Cricket Stadium gives both bowlers and batters something to work with. It usually plays true and offers a solid surface for batting. That said, seamers can expect good bounce early on. Spinners will also find something to work with, but once the dew settles in, it could make things tougher for them. As for the weather, Sharjah will be hot and dry during the match, and there’s no rain expected to disrupt play. UAE vs BAN Pitch Report The average first-innings score at Sharjah Cricket Stadium stands at 151. The highest total recorded at the venue is Afghanistan’s 215 for 6 against Zimbabwe back in 2016. If Bangladesh get to bat first, they’ll likely target something in the 175 to 185 range. For UAE, batting first might mean aiming for a total around 160, which could give them a fighting chance.  Toss: To Bat 23 of the 38 T20Is played at Sharjah Cricket Stadium have been won by the side batting first, clearly indicating that batting first is more beneficial on this ground.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Kolkata Knight Riders TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. RCB vs KKR Match Prediction & Analysis After a short pause, IPL 2025 is back with Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) set to take on Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the Chinnaswamy Stadium. RCB have had a strong run this season, sitting in second place with 16 points from 11 matches and all but through to the playoffs. KKR, on the other hand, are sixth with 11 points from 12 games and are in must-win territory. A defeat here would shut the door on their playoff chances. RCB, riding high on form, have the upper hand going into this clash.  TEAMS PREVIEW Royal Challengers Bengaluru Preview RCB have been clinical this season and now find themselves just one win away from locking in a playoff spot. With most of their overseas players back in the mix after the break, they’ll feel good about their chances as the tournament picks up again. Virat Kohli has been in outstanding touch, scoring 505 runs from 11 innings at an average of 63.12 and a strike rate of 143.46. He’s the one to watch, especially against KKRβ€”a team he’s scored 1021 runs against in 32 innings at 40.84. Phil Salt, who had to sit out due to illness and opened the door for Jacob Bethell’s debut, is expected to be available for the rest of IPL 2025. That’s a big lift for RCB since Salt is capable of firing early in the innings. Captain Rajat Patidar has stepped up with 239 runs in 10 innings, scoring at a brisk 140.58. Down the order, RCB will look to Tim David and Romario Shepherd to finish with fire. Shepherd’s knock against Chennai Super Kingsβ€”an unbeaten 53 off 14β€”was a reminder of what he can do. Josh Hazlewood missing out is a tough pill to swallow, given how central he’s been with the ball. Still, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Krunal Pandya have chipped in with wickets and bring some experience. Kolkata Knight Riders Preview Kolkata Knight Riders, the defending champs, have had a bumpy run this seasonβ€”just five wins against six losses from 12 matches puts them sixth on the table. With two games left and a net run rate of 0.193, they’ll need strong wins and a bit of luck from other fixtures to stay in the playoff picture. The batting order hasn’t really clicked. Ajinkya Rahane stands out with 375 runs in 11 innings, while the rest have been patchy at best. Quinton de Kock was dropped in favor of Rahmanullah Gurbaz, but the swap hasn’t paid off yet. Sunil Narine has had a few quick-fire knocks at the top, though he hasn’t found much consistency. Andre Russell, on the other hand, looks to be back in formβ€”scoring 38 off 21 and following it up with a blazing 57* off 25 in the last two games. Angkrish Raghuvanshi has added real valueβ€”286 runs in 10 innings at an average of 35.75 and a strike rate of 145.17. With Venkatesh Iyer injured in the previous match, Manish Pandey stepped in and delivered a calm 36* off 28, likely keeping him in the XI moving forward. Weather Conditions Batters usually enjoy themselves at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, thanks to a pitch that’s typically flat and reliableβ€”just right for clearing the ropes. If there’s something in it for spinners, it tends to show up in the middle overs, as was the case in the last match at this venue. But unless the surface changes drastically, bowlers won’t have much to work with. Rain could be an issue in Bengaluru on Saturday, with a 76% chance of showers and a possible thunderstorm in the afternoon. That means we could be looking at a delayed start or a game that keeps getting interrupted. At M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, teams batting first typically average 168 runs. But this venue often delivers big scores – Sunrisers Hyderabad smashed 287 against RCB here in IPL 2024, setting a new tournament record. For this match, the side batting first will likely aim for 200-210 to feel comfortable. Toss: To Bat The last two matches played at the Chinnaswamy was won by the team batting first. This might prompt both captains to bat first in this game.
