RCB playing 11 against Rajasthan Royals – IPL 2025, Match 28:
Ouvers: Philip Salt, Virat Kohli
Phil Salt and Virat Kohli should be the openers of the Royal Challengers Bengaluru playing 11 for the coming game. They gave a good start to their team in the last match and also envisage a similar performance against RR.
The salt was the aggressor from the start while he and Kohli added 61 points in less than 4 overs for the first window. Salt left for 37 points out of only 17 bullets. Kohli, on the other hand, scored 22 points on 14 bullets.
Middle Order: Devdutt Padikkal, Rajat Patidar (C), Liam Livingstone, Jiteh Sharma (WK), Tim David, Krunal Pandya
Devdutt Padikkal will seek to bounce back and score big against his former team after having scored only 1 point in the last match. Captain Rajat Patidar will also seek to lead his front team by playing a captain. He scored 25 points out of 23 balls during the last outing.
Liam Livingstone also had a disappointing outing with the bat. The star of England was absent for only 4 points and will want to make amends. Jiteh Sharma could not impress with the bat either and was only absent for 3 points.
Tim David played a good cameo for the Royal Challengers Bengaluru who helped them to cross the 150 -point brand. The Australian star has broken 30 points out of only 20 balls and will again seek to impress the bat.
Krunal Pandya should be the main allrouner of the RCB playing 11. He scored a 18-ball 18 and will seek to do better with the bat. With the ball, Krunal delivered two letters and conceded 19 points without taking a counter.
Quicks: Bhuvnehwar Kumar, Josh Hazlewood, Yash Dayal
Bhuvnehwar Kumar, Yash Dayal and Josh Hazlewood should be the three RCB pacers playing 11. Bhuvnehwar was the choice of RCB quisters in the last match, taking 2 counters for 26 points. On the other hand, Dayal picked up 1 window for 45 points while Hazlewood conceded 40 points in just 3 letters without taking a window.
With the field in Jaipur which should promote the spinners, Suyash Sharma is likely to be used again as an impact player. The leg spinner also played a similar role in the last match and has performed well. He conceded 25 points in his 4 Overs and rejected Captain DC Axar Patel.
