Royal Challengers Bangalore

RCB will take on SRH at the Brabourne Stadium later on Saturday and with SRH gradually moving up the points table on the back of four successive wins, the momentum is on their side. Hesson, when asked what strategy Williamson might employ against RCB, said, "Well, Kane's pretty methodical in terms of how he prepares. He's very professional. He's obviously brought that team together after a tough start losing the first couple of games.

It was an emphatic win for RCB as they sealed their fifth win of the season, surpassing LSG in an emphatic all-round display that needed some effort. While du Plessis played a captain's knock, it was Shahbaz Ahmed who played the perfect anchor at the other end, steadying the innings. The duo stitched together a crucial stand of 70 runs.

RCB players produced some electric fielding efforts on the pitch which saw them defeat Delhi Capitals by 16 runs on April 16. In a match that saw Dinesh Karthik smash the DC bowling all around the park for his unbeaten 66, former skipper Virat Kohli plucked out a ripper from mid-air while Rawat, Prabhudessai and du Plessis provided the edge on the field, preventing several DC strikes from reaching the boundary ropes.

Vaughan predicted that RCB can end their title drought this year having won five out of their seven games in the IPL 2022. RCB is currently at the second spot in the points table. "Without doubt @RCBTweets are the real deal this year under @faf1307," Vaughan tweeted after RCB defeated Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) by 18 runs on Monday.

Kohli, the former India skipper in all three formats, stepped down from captaincy roles last year. He has not scored a century in any format since November 2019. He has had an equally dismal time in the ongoing Indian Premier League with just 119 runs in seven matches at an average of 19.83.

In a fantastic thriller, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) on Tuesday defeated Lucknow Super Giants  (LSG) by 18 runs. RCB skipper Faf du Plessis missed his century just by four runs. It was RCB's fifth win in the ongoing IPL season.

"So, from a batting point of view, we probably got it right once (against DC). So, here is another opportunity (against LSG) for us to get it right as a batting unit. We got enough experience to defend on that surface," Hesson had said. In a similar display, the Challengers ripped through the ranks of the Lucknow Super Giants in what one would call a clinical display of vision, aggression, and some intelligent captaincy.

In a candid talk with former RCB skipper Virat Kohli on RCB Bold Diaries, Karthik added that his dream was to help India "cross that line" of winning multi-nation tournament, which has eluded the country for a long time now.

"I believe we will see a new champion this season. Royal Challengers Bangalore are on a roll in this IPL and they are definitely going to make it to the playoffs. They are getting hotter and hotter as the tournament is progressing. They are looking in a good space. They are getting better and better with every game," Shastri said on Cricket Live on Star Sports.
