𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : ​Lucknow Super Giants vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru ​𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : May 09,Friday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 20:30 PM IST​​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium, Lucknow, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 :​ Indian Premier League, 2025​​ RCB aim for 5th straight win Lucknow Super Giants vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru 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. LSG vs RCB Match Prediction & Analysis Lucknow Super Giants will take on the in-form RCB at home. LSG are struggling to find consistency in the batting department. As such, it will be too challenging for the hosts to stop the RCB juggernaut. Virat Kohli is in sublime form and has scored 4 consecutive fifties for his side. The depth in the batting lineup is a huge plus for RCB. The likes of Bhuvneshwar and Lungi Ngidi will pose a threat to the hosts’ out-of-form batting order. LSG are troubled by Rishabh Pant’s poor run of form this season. The southpaw batter is known for his ability to change the game. He’s hardly managed to make an impact this year. Along with Kohli, RCB also have the likes of Jacob Bethell, Devdutt Padikkal, and Tim David in the lower order. They’re a solid batting unit with many match-winning players throughout the lineup. TEAMS PREVIEW Lucknow Super Giants Preview Lucknow Super Giants were off to a not-so-good start with two losses from their 3 matches. They bounced back from there and won 4 of their next 5 games and looked very promising. However, since the, LSG have lost 3 matches on the trot and are fighting to stay alive in the race to playoffs. They desperately need a win here against the mighty Royal Challengers Bengaluru. In their last home game, LSG finished with 159 runs batting first against Delhi Capitals and lost the match by 8 wickets. In the next two games, the bowlers conceded 200+ while bowling first, and the Giants continued their losing run. Avesh Khan and Mayank Yadav conceded runs at an economy of 15 and 14.20 respectively in their last outing while being wicketless. Digvesh Rathi has managed to find a wicket or two in almost every game but his economies aren’t any better. There is no match-winner in the bowling attack who could put LSG on top of the game with a brilliant spell. The batting lineup is star-studded. With Aiden Markram and Mitchell Marsh at the top, LSG look quite strong. Nicholas Pooran and Rishabh Pant aren’t usually expected at 3 and 4 but are a great choice in a big run-chase. Then there is the ‘killer’ Miller lower down the order along the the young Ayush Badoni who made a mark for himself last season. Royal Challengers Bengaluru Preview RCB are in great shape with 4 wins on the trot. Their star player has been in sublime form with 4 consecutive fifties and doesn’t seem to be stopping anytime soon. A win here would put the Royal Challengers Bengaluru at the top of the points table. Rajat Patidar has tasted great success as captain of the side but seems to have lost his rhythm with the bat lately. He scored 11, 6, and 1 in his last 3 innings. Devdutt Padikkal is also struggling in the middle-order. Openers Kohli and Bethell scored a fifty each in RCB’s last outing while Romario Shepherd scored an unbeaten 53 off 14 balls at number 7 to propel the team to a 200+ runs total. Patidar will be concerned about his middle-order performance coming into this match. RCB needs their skipper to step up and deliver some impactful knock along with Padikkal. Kohli will need a partner in Padikkal to build a partnership in the middle overs while Paitdar can come in and play his big shots to accelerate the run rate. Tim David is the designated finisher for RCB and with Romario Shepherd also in the picture, RCB’s batting lineup is just too deep. In the bowling department, it will be up to Bhuvneshwar Kumar to deliver early breakthroughs. Lungi Ngidi replaced Hazlewood in the last game and delivered 3 wickets. He will be one to watch out for. Krunal Pandya is a reliable spinner for RCB. He can deliver economical spells while picking up a wicket or two. Weather Conditions It will be partly cloudy in Lucknow on the match day with a high of 39 degrees Celsius. There is no prediction for rain or thunderstorms and we can expect an uninterrupted match between the two teams. LSG vs RCB Pitch Report It is a great wicket for T20 cricket. Unlike other venues, it isn’t a one-sided affair at the Ekana Stadium and we get to see an even contest between bat and ball. The average 1st innings score in the last 5 matches here is 175 runs. It is not a winning total, however. The only score that was successfully defended on this ground is 203 runs. Toss: To Bowl Teams bowling first have won 4 of the 5 matches at this venue in IPL 2025 so far. Batters have chased down some competitive totals on this ground. LSG aren’t in good touch to set a competitive total against the in-form RCB. We reckon bowling first and chasing a target of less than 200 will be a great choice.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Chennai Super Kings, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Chennai Super Kings​​𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : May 03, Saturday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 07:50 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru, India​𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League 2025 Can CSK settle scores with RCB? Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Chennai Super Kings 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 CSK Match Prediction & Analysis RCB are on a roll this season. They’ve been exceptional under the new captain, and their star batsman, Virat Kohli, has also found his mojo this year. With Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Josh Hazlewood, and Krunal Pandya in the bowling attack, RCB have done away with all their bowling woes from previous seasons. CSK, on the other hand, are having a season to forget. MS Dhoni hasn’t flourished and delivered as expected of him in the finisher’s role. The franchise didn’t make the right decisions in the auction either. The squad strength isn’t that great, and even with MSD at the helm of affairs, the 5-time champions continue to struggle this year. There have been very poor batting performances from the men in yellow. RCB’s bowling attack would be too strong for the CSK batters, and we reckon Rajat Patidar and co. will get to their second home win of the season in this match. TEAMS PREVIEW Royal Challengers Bengaluru Preview It has taken RCB some time to get their combinations right. Even with a star-studded side in the past, they would fail to deliver consistently. When they made it to the playoffs, they would collapse in the knockout games. The major issue with this team was the lack of reliable Indian players in the side and over-reliance on overseas stars. Rajat Patidar has led RCB from the front and has found new match-winners. RCB are no longer dependent on Kohli. Devdutt Padikkal, back in RCB colors, has been in fine touch, and we expect him to deliver big at the Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. Rajat Patidar comes in at number 4 and never lets the momentum fade away. His ability to strike the ball from the get-go makes him a special player. The batting lineup goes deep with Krunal Pandya, Tim David, and Jitesh Sharma in the lower middle order. Jitesh Sharma is another great find and has the confidence to be a finisher. He’s a reliable batter and will be one to watch out for in this match. RCB will be delighted with their bowling strength this year. Chennai Super Kings Preview The Chennai Super Kings are having one of their worst IPL seasons ever. It is not just the number of matches they’ve lost, but the way they’ve played so far. They have lacked the winning spirit and looked stuck in the old ways of playing T20 cricket. There are structural issues as far as the squad strength is concerned. And then there is the way CSK players go about their business on the field. The bowling attack isn’t impressive at all. Mathisha Patheerana, who was a match-winner for CSK in previous seasons, has been out of form for quite some time. And that has hurt CSK a lot this year. Khaleel Ahmed, who’s played 67 IPL matches, hasn’t really made a big impact this season. He’s had a few good outings, but overall, he’s not threatened the opposition as much. Spinners R Ashwin and R Jadeja are the senior pros in this side. Noor Ahmed was impressive in the early games, but the spin-bowling attack also faltered as the season progressed. At the moment, there aren’t many reliable or in-form bowlers in the side. Khaleel Ahmed will be a key player, and we expect him to deliver breakthroughs in this game. The batting lineup is deep and features some quality batters. But the approach hasn’t been right and that’s what’s keeping CSK from delivering impactful performances. Weather Conditions Light rain is expected in Bengaluru with a high of 24 degrees Celsius around the match time. We can expect a few overs to be reduced if the game continues after rain stops. However, it looks unlikely that we would have a toss given the weather forecast. RCB vs CSK Pitch Report The pitch at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium is a batting paradise. It will be quite tricky for the bowlers to contain the flow of runs. Expect pacers to deliver slower deliveries from the back of the wrist to pick wickets on this pitch. The average 1st innings score in the last 4 matches here is 158 runs. However, a match-winning total would be something over 200 runs at this venue. Toss: To Bowl Teams bowling first have won 3 of the 4 IPL matches at this venue so far. The ground is a delight for teams batting second, and we’ve witnessed many high-scoring thrillers where teams have chased down big totals over the years.

DC vs RCB Match Prediction & Analysis We are in that stage of the Indian Premier League 2025, where some of the teams have taken a clear lead. In this context, we expect a cracker of a contest where the Delhi Capitals will take on the Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the 46th game to prove their dominance. The Royal Challengers defeated the Rajasthan Royals in the last game and look confident. Delhi Capitals have also done well and won against the Lucknow Super Giants in their last game. Both teams will aim for the top spot on the points table with a win.  The Royal Challengers Bengaluru have shown consistency in recent matches. They have won three out of the last four games. They have enjoyed a good record against the Delhi Capitals, and the team will look to bank on its batting strength. The Delhi Capitals won’t hand the game on a platter to the RCB, but they have done well themselves. We expect a close encounter as the teams fight hard to make it to the top of the points table. TEAMS PREVIEW Delhi Capitals Preview Axar Patel will be proud of his team’s performance this season. They defeated the Lucknow Super Giants by 8 wickets in the last game to move to the second spot on the points table. They have their batsmen in good form, and the bowlers have also done well. They defeated the Royal Challengers Bengaluru earlier in the season, and the team will look to draw inspiration from that win and do the same.  Abishek Porel batted well in the last game, and he looks forward to delivering a good start in this game with Karun Nair. KL Rahul and Axar Patel set up a match-winning partnership in the last game and are looking to build partnerships with Tristan Stubbs. Ashutosh Sharma, Vipraj Nigam, and Mitchell Starc can hit the ball hard and add firepower to this batting lineup.  Mitchell Starc and Axar Patel bowled brilliantly in the last game, and they will have to do well as the Royal Challengers are in good form. Mukesh Kumar will be confident after his 4-wicket spell in the last game and shall look to do well in the middle overs with Dushmantha Chameera. The team will expect a good show in the supporting role from Kuldeep Yadav and Vipraj Nigam. oyal Challengers Bengaluru Preview Rajat Patidar’s team has been the talk of the world this season. They have shed their tag of being slow starters and have done well since the season’s start. The side defeated the Rajasthan Royals in the last game by 11 runs. They have enjoyed a good record against the Delhi Capitals, and Patidar would like his team to build on the momentum and take a step towards the playoffs.  Virat Kohli is among the best batsmen this season and played a match-winning knock against RR. He’ll look to deliver a strong start with Phillip Salt. Devdutt Padikkal is batting well, and he will look to add runs in the middle order with Tim David and Rajat Patidar. Jitesh Sharma, Romario Shepherd, and Krunal Panya are powerful hitters and complete a strong batting unit.  Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Yash Dayal leaked runs in the last game, and the team needs a better show from them with the new ball. Josh Hazlewood picked 4 wickets in the last game and tilted the odds. He will look to do the same with Shepherd in the middle overs. Krunal Pandya and Suyash Sharma add variety to this attack, making it strong. Weather Conditions There will be clear skies over Delhi. We expect the conditions to be hot. The track would be a good one to bat on, where batsmen can play their strokes easily. The average first innings score is 169 runs, and the side batting first would like more than 190 runs on the board to feel confident. DC vs RCB Pitch Report Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi, is one of the best venues for T20 cricket in India, and we have seen high-scoring games here in the past. Fast bowlers must bring out their variations to do well here, and the spinners enjoy good support from the wicket. Batsmen can play here without fear as the ball comes onto the bat nicely. Toss: To Bowl The side chasing the score in this venue won most games in the last two seasons. We have seen big scores, and the excellent wicket makes it a good surface to chase. The side that wins the toss in this game would opt to bowl first and try and dismiss the opponent for a small total.

RCB vs RR Match Prediction & Analysis The Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) are set to face the Rajasthan Royals (RR) in Match 42 of IPL 2025 on April 24 at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.​ RCB has three wins in the last five games and is currently in third place with 10 points. In contrast, RR has lost four out of the last five games and has four points in eight games. ​In their most recent outing on April 20, 2025, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) showcased a dominant performance against Punjab Kings (PBKS). After opting to field first, RCB’s bowlers restricted PBKS to a modest total of 157/6, with notable contributions from Suyash Sharma and Krunal Pandya, who claimed two wickets each. RCB’s innings was anchored by a commanding 103-run partnership between Virat Kohli and Devdutt Padikkal. RCB won the game by 7 wickets. In their most recent match on April 19, 2025, the Rajasthan Royals (RR) endured a narrow 2-run defeat against the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG). This loss marked RR’s fourth consecutive defeat, highlighting their struggles in closing out matches despite strong individual performances. Yashaswi Jaiswal scored 74 runs in the game while Hasaranga picked up two wickets. TEAMS PREVIEW Royal Challengers Bengaluru Preview RCB’s top order has been instrumental in setting strong foundations this season. Virat Kohli leads the team’s run-scoring with 322 runs at an average of 64. He has 4 half-centuries. He will be the batter to watch out for. Phil Salt complements Kohli with his aggressive approach, amassing 213 runs at a strike rate of 178, the highest among RCB’s top-order batters. Salt’s aggressive 65 off 33 balls, featuring five fours and six sixes, earned him the Player of the Match award in RCB’s last game against RR. Devdutt Paddikal will come at number three. Paddikal scored 61 off 35 balls in RCB’s last win over PBKS. Rajat Patidar will come in the middle with Tim David, Jitesh Sharma, and Liam Livingstone. Patidar has 221 runs in 7 innings at a strike rate of 151. Tim David has played an impactful role for RCB this season. In 5 innings, he has 142 runs at a strike rate of 194.52. He has been out only once in these innings. Sharma and Livingstone have a collective strike rate of 133. Sharma has taken 9 catches behind the stumps while Livingstone has 2 wickets with the ball too. Rajasthan Royals Preview ​Rajasthan Royals (RR) will be without their captain and key batter, Sanju Samson, who recovering from an abdominal injury sustained during RR’s Super Over defeat to Delhi Capitals. This will be a major blow for RR as Samson is currently their second leading run-scorer with 223 runs at an economy of 143.58. Vaibhav Suryavanshi will continue to open with Yashaswi Jaiswal in his absence. 14-year-old Suryavanshi made a debut with a quickfire 34 off 20 balls, including three sixes, and shared an 85-run partnership with Yashasvi Jaiswal in the last game. Jaiswal will be the batter to watch out for. He has 307 runs with a strike rate of 140 and has scored 4 half-centuries. Nitish Rana will come at number three. Rana has a strike rate of 177. But he has failed to convert his fire into a big innings. Riyan Parag will be leading the RR side against RCB. Parag has 212 runs at a strike rate of 148.25. He will come in the middle with Shimron Heytmyer, Dhruv Jurel & Shubham Dubey. Jurel has 191 runs with a strike rate of 154. Meanwhile, Dubey, in limited appearances, has shown promise as a finisher—his 34* off 11 balls against SRH being a highlight—yet he lacks the exposure and consistency to be a dependable threat just yet. Weather Conditions The weather at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru is expected to be sunny on match day, with temperatures ranging between 22 and 34 degrees Celsius. Winds will blow from the southeast at 8-15 km/h. It is a batting-friendly pitch.

RCB vs PBKS Match Prediction & Analysis We are in the midseason of the Indian Premier League 2025 and teams are fighting hard to improve their position on the points table. We expect a cracker of a contest where hosts Royal Challengers Bengaluru face the Punjab Kings in the 34th game. Both teams have 8 points after six games. A win here will take them to the top of the points table. The Royal Challengers defeated the Rajasthan Royals in their last game and look confident. The Punjab Kings will look to build on their momentum after a win against the Kolkata Knight Riders.  The Royal Challengers Bengaluru have won the last three games against the Punjab Kings, which will make the team confident. They play at home and know the conditions well on this wicket. The Punjab Kings have a poor record at this venue, which can play on their minds. Their batsmen struggled in the last game. Whether the Kings can overcome the odds and do well in this contest remains to be seen. TEAMS PREVIEW Royal Challengers Bengaluru Preview Rajat Patidar’s team has impressed everyone with its consistency and dominating performances this season. They defeated the Rajasthan Royals in the last game by 9 wickets. It was an excellent show from the batting lineup as they clinically chased down the big total. Punjab Kings have done well this year, and Patidar would like his team to play aggressively and use the home advantage to move to the top spot on the points table.  Phillip Salt is taking on the bowlers aggressively and will look to deliver a strong start in this game with Virat Kohli. Devdutt Padikkal will look to steer the innings in the middle order and add runs with Liam Livingstone and Jitesh Sharma. The side has depth in the batting lineup and expects runs from Tim David, Krunal Pandya, and Bhuvneshwar Kumar.  Bhuvneshwar Kumar did well with the new ball in the last game and must get early breakthroughs with Yash Dayal. Krunal Pandya is troubling the batters, and he must keep up the pressure in the middle overs with Josh Hazlewood. The side expects good spells from Suyash Sharma and Liam Livingstone in the supporting role, as the Punjab Kings have good hitters. Punjab Kings Preview Shreyas Iyer will be proud of his bowlers and how they foxed the Kolkata Knight Riders in the last game. In a game where the batting lineup failed miserably, the bowling attack pulled a win out of thin air, winning the game by 16 runs. Iyer will expect a better show from his batsmen in this game. They have struggled against RCB, and Iyer would look to improve this record.  Priyansh Arya has been the leading batter for the team this season and must deliver a good start in this game with Prabhsimran Singh. Shreyas Iyer will look to anchor the innings and do well in the middle order with Josh Inglis and Nehal Wadhera. The team expects quick runs in the lower middle order from Glenn Maxwell, Suryansh Shedge, and Marco Jansen.  The bowling attack put up one of the best bowling performances in IPL history, and the team will be confident. Marco Jansen and Xavier Bartlett must get early breakthroughs to put the team in a strong position. Yuzvendra Chahal bowled a dream spell in the last game, and he will look to keep the scoring under check with Arshdeep Singh. Glenn Maxwell and Suryansh Shedge add balance to this attack.  Weather Conditions We expect another warm evening in Bengaluru. The flat wicket is easy for the batsmen. There is very little assistance for the bowlers. The average first innings score at this venue is 173 runs. The side batting first would need a minimum of 200 runs to feel safe on this track. A placid pitch, fast outfield, and shorter boundaries make M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru, one of the best T20 venues in the world. We have seen several high-scoring encounters at this venue, and batters find it easy to play on this surface where there is little support for the bowlers. Toss: To Bowl The side chasing the score has won four out of the last five games. The surface has been slower than usual, and setting up a total here isn’t easy, as we see big run chases at this venue. Both teams would take a cue from their previous wins and opt to bowl first.

The Rajasthan Royals will look to improve their position on the points table as they take on the Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the 28th game. RCB went down against the Delhi Capitals in their last game. The Rajasthan Royals also enter this game with a loss against the Gujarat Titans.  The Royal Challengers Bengaluru have their openers in good form and on a flat batting surface they will look to play to their strengths.

Shimron Hetmyer has done well in the lower middle order, and the team expects him to add quick runs in the game with Shubham Dubey.   Jofra Archer has found his form after struggling in the first few games.

The team has a strong batting lineup, and Patidar expects a better show from his bowlers in this game to move up on the points table.  The side expects fireworks from Virat Kohli and Phillip Salt, as both players are in good form. They must take on Rajasthan’s bowlers, who are low on confidence. The middle order has struggled in a few games, and the team expects Devdutt Padikkal, Rajat Patidar, and Liam Livingstone to build big partnerships. The team has depth in the batting and expects quick runs from Jitesh Sharma, Krunal Pandya, and Tim David.  The bowlers failed to deliver the goods as a group in the last game. The team expects a good start with the new ball from Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Yash Dayal. Josh Hazlewood and Suyash Sharma must pick wickets in the middle overs and trouble the batters. The side expects a good show in the supporting role from Krunal Pandya and Liam Livingstone. Weather Conditions We will see clear skies at Jaipur. It will be a good batting surface where batsmen can hit through the line. Bowlers will have a tough time on this wicket and must bowl well to get rewards. The average first-innings score is 161 runs, and team batting first would target 180 plus to feel comfortable on this surface. RR vs RCB Pitch Report Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur, is a batsman’s paradise. The wicket has true bounce and pace, allowing batters to hit through the line. Spinners enjoy bowling on this surface as the ball bounces and turns sharply. It is a tough wicket for the bowlers as the dryness doesn’t offer them much.  Toss: To Bowl Defending scores at this venue is tough. The wicket can be tricky to bat at the start of the game, but the batting conditions improve as the game progresses. The side won’t hesitate to bowl first and aim to restrict the opposition to a small total.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Delhi Capitals, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : ​​​​​​Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Delhi Capitals 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : April 10, Thursday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 07:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League 2025 RCB have had Delhi Capitals’ number in recent IPL seasons. Out of their last five meetings, Bengaluru came out on top in all but one encounter.  Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Delhi Capitals 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. TEAMS PREVIEW Royal Challengers Bengaluru Preview Royal Challengers Bengaluru have kicked off IPL 2025 in strong fashion. They’ve played four games so far, winning three and dropping just one. Their latest outing was a nail-biter — a 12-run win over Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede. After putting up a solid 221-5 batting first, they held their nerve with the ball, even as MI threatened a late comeback. The runs were well spread out this time. Virat Kohli was at it again, scoring a fluent 67 off 42. He’s now topping the charts for RCB this season with 167 runs from four games at an average of 54.66 and a strike rate of 143.85. Rajat Patidar led the side with intent, blasting 64 off just 32, while Jitesh Sharma’s unbeaten 40 off 19 and Devdutt Padikkal’s 37 off 22 kept the momentum going.  RCB’s lineup looks deep and dangerous, with Tim David batting as low as seven. Philip Salt hasn’t quite clicked yet, but he’s due — and a quick 30-plus knock could be just around the corner. Delhi Capitals Preview Delhi Capitals have had a flying start to the season, winning all three games with ease and sitting at the top of the table. Their latest win was a 25-run result over Chennai Super Kings at Chepauk. On a sluggish pitch, DC posted 183-6 and then kept CSK to 158-5 with disciplined bowling. KL Rahul led the charge with a fluent 77 off 51. His calm presence at the top makes a big difference—he can keep the scoreboard ticking and also shift gears when needed. The middle-order looks in good shape too, with Abishek Porel, Tristan Stubbs, and Axar Patel all looking dependable and capable of putting runs on the board. Jake Fraser-McGurk hasn’t fired yet this season, but we’ve seen what he can do last season when he finds rhythm. A flat pitch like Chinnaswamy might be the perfect setup for him to play a quick, impactful knock. Ashutosh Sharma’s finishing skills also give DC that edge at the death—he can take down any attack in the last few overs. Weather Conditions Batsmen love the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium pitch, and for good reason – it’s usually flat and true, perfect for big hitting. Spinners can make an impact in the middle stages if the pitch offers grip, as we saw in the previous contest here. Conditions, however, will probably heavily favor batting with minimal assistance for bowlers. The forecast calls for mild, somewhat cloudy conditions in Bengaluru during game time, but no rain threat means we’ll likely get a complete match without weather interruptions. 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 210-220 to feel comfortable. Toss: To Bat Looking at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium’s recent history, we see a clear pattern emerging. The team taking first strike has won four of the previous six IPL contests held at this ground. Such statistics point to a noticeable benefit when establishing a total instead of pursuing one. Given these figures, the smart play appears to be batting first whenever possible at this venue.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 :​​​​​​ Mumbai Indians vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : April 07, Monday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 19:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai City, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League 2025 Mumbai Indians have dominated Royal Challengers Bengaluru at Wankhede, winning eight matches while losing only three. Mumbai Indians vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru 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. MI vs RCB Match Prediction & Analysis Match 20 of the IPL 2025 sees Mumbai Indians (MI) hosting Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) at Wankhede this Monday. It’s been a bumpy ride for Mumbai so far—three tough losses and just one solid win at home. RCB kicked things off strongly with two convincing victories, but their momentum took a hit after a big loss to Gujarat Titans. Can Mumbai find their rhythm again, or will RCB bounce back and hand them another defeat? TEAMS PREVIEW Mumbai Indians Preview It’s been a bumpy IPL season so far for Mumbai Indians. They’ve picked up just one win at home, while losing all three away matches. Their only real high point was the win over KKR at Wankhede, but away from home, they’ve been poor. In the last match, they fell short by 12 runs chasing 204 against LSG. Their top order hasn’t fired consistently. Will Jacks and Ryan Rickelton have had their moments but haven’t done enough. Rohit Sharma missed the last game and hasn’t been in great rhythm lately, so expectations from him aren’t high at this stage. Tilak Varma couldn’t find the boundary at the right time in their last match, and that slow patch proved costly. But the Wankhede should suit his game better, and he might come good here. Suryakumar Yadav, on the other hand, has been excellent—171 runs in four innings, averaging 57 and a strike rate over 160. Royal Challengers Bengaluru Preview Royal Challengers Bengaluru got off to a strong start with away wins over KKR and CSK. But things took a turn when they played at home for the first time this season, going down to Gujarat Titans. RCB batted first at the batting-friendly M. Chinnaswamy Stadium and posted a below-par 169-8. Gujarat had no trouble chasing that, getting there in just 17.2 overs and losing only two wickets. It was a tough outing for RCB, and they’ll want to shake it off quickly and get back in the groove. The top order is clicking well. Virat Kohli, Philip Salt, and Rajat Patidar have all looked solid. Patidar has chipped in twice already, and Salt should enjoy the surface at the Wankhede—expect him to go hard from the start and get a quickfire 25-30 runs.  Kohli loves playing here too, averaging over 40 with five fifties at a strike rate of 136. After a couple of quiet outings, he’ll be keen to make it count. Liam Livingstone, who hadn’t done much in the first two games, found his rhythm with a 54 off 40 against GT—the highest score for RCB that day. Further down, Jitesh Sharma and Tim David are reliable for late-over firepower. David was especially impressive in the last match, hammering 32* off just 18 and proving he can do real damage. Weather Conditions The Wankhede track is generally flat and run-friendly. Still, expect some movement for pacers under lights, especially in the opening overs with the new ball. Once batters weather this challenging start, run-scoring becomes much easier. Spin bowlers typically find little assistance here with minimal turn available. The pitch should be hard and firm, making life difficult for slower bowlers. Expect extremely sticky and warm conditions in Mumbai, though rain won’t be a factor during the match. MI vs RCB Pitch Report The Wankhede Stadium usually sees first-innings scores averaging 170. RCB holds the IPL record here with 235-1 against MI in 2015. Last season alone, four matches produced totals exceeding 200, including Mumbai Indians’ massive 234-5 versus Delhi Capitals. Considering how runs flow at this stadium, both teams will likely aim for 190-200 to feel comfortable about their chances. Toss: To Bowl The numbers favor chasing at Wankhede Stadium, with teams batting second winning 65 T20 matches compared to 54 victories for teams setting targets. This trend comes from a total of 119 T20 games played at the venue.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Gujarat Titans, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 :​​​​Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Gujarat Titans​𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : April 02, Wednesday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 19:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru, India𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League, 2025 Royal Challengers Bengaluru defeated Gujarat Titans in both their clashes in IPL 2024. New Zealand vs Pakistan 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 GT Match Prediction & Analysis Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) face Gujarat Titans (GT) in the 14th match of IPL 2025 in Bengaluru. RCB have exceeded expectations so far, securing two dominant wins and carrying strong momentum into this home fixture. Gujarat Titans bounced back well after an early setback and will be eager to keep that going. Both teams come in with confidence, but with RCB playing at home and in top form, they head into this clash as the team to beat. TEAMS PREVIEW Royal Challengers Bengaluru Preview Royal Challengers Bengaluru couldn’t have asked for a better start to their season. Two away matches, two dominant victories—they’ve set the tone early and look like strong contenders. Their latest win was a commanding 50-run triumph over Chennai Super Kings at the MA Chidambaram Stadium. After putting up 196-7, they kept the hosts to just 146-8. RCB’s batting lineup is in excellent shape, with Virat Kohli, Philip Salt, and Rajat Patidar all looking solid. Patidar has stepped up with crucial performances in both games, while Salt will relish the batting-friendly conditions at Chinnaswamy. An aggressive start from him seems likely. Kohli, who thrives at this venue with an average of over 40, has registered four centuries and 22 fifties here. Another big knock is on the cards. Lower down the order, Jitesh Sharma and Tim David can be counted on for quick runs in the final overs. Batting has always been RCB’s strong suit, but this season, their bowling looks sharp too. Josh Hazlewood’s inclusion has been a game-changer—five wickets in two matches at an economy of just 5.37 speak volumes. Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s presence alongside him gives RCB a dependable pace attack in the powerplay. Krunal Pandya, Yash Dayal, and Liam Livingstone add more options in the middle overs, ensuring a balanced attack. Gujarat Titans Preview After falling short in their opening game against Punjab Kings, Gujarat Titans bounced back with a convincing 36-run win over Mumbai Indians at home. They put up a solid 196-8 after batting first and kept MI to 160-6. Sai Sudharsan once again led the charge, scoring a composed 63 off 41 balls. This was his second consecutive fifty, proving his consistency at the top. He has been anchoring the innings well, which makes him a dependable presence. Captain Shubman Gill has been getting starts but hasn’t converted them into a big score yet. Given his current form and the batting-friendly conditions, he looks due for a standout performance soon. Jos Buttler is another batter to keep an eye on. He’s already scored 54 (off 33) and 39 (off 24) in the tournament and appears set for another impactful knock of 30+ runs at number three. Gujarat’s main concern is their middle and lower order, which hasn’t looked convincing. If early wickets fall, they could be in trouble. Shahrukh Khan and Rahul Tewatia haven’t found their rhythm, and much will depend on how Impact Player Sherfane Rutherford handles the pressure in case of a collapse. Weather Conditions The pitch at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium has always been known to favour batters. The surface here tends to be rather flat, allowing batsmen to play through the line and smash big ones. Spinners do get some help in the middle overs, but since this is the first game of the season to be played at the venue, it is more likely to be a batting paradise with very little for the bowlers. The weather in Bengaluru will be slightly cloudy and cool during the evening, but there is no forecast of rain so we should get a full match. RCB vs GT Pitch Report The average score batting first at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium is 168. However, you should expect a high-scoring game here. In IPL 2024, the Chinnaswamy stadium produced the highest team total in the league’s history – 287 by Sunrisers Hyderabad versus Royal Challengers Bengaluru. The team batting first would be eyeing a score of around 220-230 in this contest. Toss: To Bat Four of the last five IPL matches at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium have been won by the team batting first. This shows that the venue usually favors setting a target and batting first would be the better choice here.

Chennai Super Kings vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction​

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 :​​​ Chennai Super Kings vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : March 28, Friday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 19:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : M. A. Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai, India​𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : IPLT20 2025​ Chennai Super Kings have lost just one game out of nine against Royal Challengers Bengaluru at Chepauk.  Chennai Super Kings vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru 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. CSK vs RCB Match Prediction & Analysis Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) lock horns in what promises to be a thrilling battle at the MA Chidambaram Stadium for match eight of IPL 2025. Both teams head into this clash with confidence after securing wins in their opening games. While CSK have often had the upper hand in past encounters, RCB appear more well-rounded this season. Expect a high-intensity showdown with both sides pushing for an early edge in the tournament. TEAMS PREVIEW Chennai Super Kings Preview Chennai Super Kings (CSK) kicked off their IPL 2025 campaign with a solid win over long-time rivals Mumbai Indians. Playing on a typical slow Chepauk surface, their spinners kept MI in check, limiting them to 155-9. The chase wasn’t without hiccups, but CSK reached the target with four wickets in hand and five balls remaining. Rachin Ravindra anchored the innings with a composed 65 off 45 deliveries, while skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad provided early momentum with a brisk 53 off 26. Apart from their contributions, the batting lineup struggled, yet the team managed to get the job done. CSK will once again count on strong starts from Rachin and Gaikwad. Gaikwad, in particular, has a great record at Chepauk and will be counted on to deliver.  Shivam Dube is expected to take on RCB’s spinners in the middle phase, while Vijay Shankar could be considered in place of Deepak Hooda to stabilize the middle order. Royal Challengers Bengaluru Preview Royal Challengers Bengaluru made a strong statement in their season opener, pulling off a convincing win against defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders on their own turf. They kept KKR to 174-8 and then chased it down comfortably in 16.2 overs, losing only three wickets along the way. Bengaluru delivered in all departments, with Philip Salt (56 off 31) and Virat Kohli (59* off 36) putting on a batting masterclass at the top to make things easy in the chase. Rajat Patidar played his part as well, smashing 34 off just 16 balls to seal the victory. Their top order looks solid with Kohli, Salt, Patidar, and Liam Livingstone, while Jitesh Sharma, Tim David, and Krunal Pandya provide depth in the middle and lower order. Josh Hazlewood could be a game-changer for RCB this season. The Australian pacer was outstanding against KKR, picking up 2-22, and will enjoy bowling at Chepauk. Krunal Pandya’s 3-29 played a decisive role in the previous match, making him a key asset on slower tracks. RCB will also count on Suyash Sharma, Livingstone, and Yash Dayal to pick up wickets in the middle overs. Weather Conditions Chepauk will offer a spin-friendly surface as we saw in the first game here, which becomes slower in the second innings. Batters will look to maximize the powerplay overs because once the ball loses its shine, it will start to turn and grip more. Spinners will have a field day and are likely to bowl the maximum number of overs.  The weather in Chennai will be hot and humid but clear. CSK vs RCB Pitch Report Chepauk’s average first-innings score is 159. In the first match of IPL 2025 played at the venue, MI scored 155-9 after batting first, and CSK chased the target down in 19.1 overs with four wickets in hand. Expect another slowish surface with plenty of assistance to spinners. The team batting first will target a score of around 170-180 to feel confident. Toss: To Bat Batting first is usually the better option at Chepauk, unless the team is bundled out for a below-par score. The wicket slows down over time, making it harder to chase later in the game.
