Rajasthan Royals, meanwhile, have been on a high with Jos Buttler smashing three hundreds in the season. RR’s batting depth hasn’t quite come into the picture given Buttler’s form. With their top five in big form, RR have odds of 1.89 to come out as the winner tonight.

The contest this match will be between Jos Buttler and RCB’s bowling attack in the powerplay overs. Buttler has been smashing it to all parts of the ground this season and RCB will bank on Josh Hazlewood and Mohammed Siraj to put a leash on him.
Keep an eye on…
Virat Kohli: Two golden ducks in his last two matches, Virat Kohli is under pressure to step up for RCB. With him no longer captain and former India head coach Ravi Shastri asking him to go on a break, it will be interesting to see Kohli’s riposte.
Yuzvendra Chahal: Amidst the Buttler fury, Chahal’s excellent season with the ball has almost gone unnoticed despite him being at the top of the wickets chart. Can Chahal fire against his former franchise?
TIP: Chahal is the leading wicket-taker in the season. Back Chahal at 3.18 to be the top match bowler for RR!
