Info:
- Virat Kohli made 70 not out from 44 balls in the last game and the right-handed opener is our tip for RCB’s highest run scorer against Gujarat Titans. With the ball, Swapnil Singh has picked up three wickets over the last two games and the left-arm spinner is a strong choice for RCB’s top wicket taker in this match.
- Only Ruturaj Gaikwad and Virat Kohli have scored more runs in this year’s IPL than Sai Sudharsan and the left-hander is well worth backing as Gujarat Titans’ highest run scorer in this game. Sai Kishore has impressed with the ball this season and the left-arm slow bowler is our pick for Gujarat Titans’ top wicket taker against RCB.
- With an average of 71.43 from ten innings in the tournament, we recommend selecting Virat Kohli to hit over 31.5 runs in this match.

Toss Predictions:
Just over 53% of IPL matches at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium have been won by the team fielding first and with humidity levels set to rise across the game, we predict that both sides will choose to bowl first if they win the toss.
Weather & Pitch Report:
Weather: ⛅
There is very little chance of any rain in Bengaluru during this match on Saturday evening. The temperature is forecast to be over 30 degrees with humidity levels climbing up to over 50%.
Pitch Report:
This pitch produced scores of 287/3 and 262/7 in the last IPL game at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium so we expect to see another high scoring contest in this match. Pace bowlers may well struggle to keep the runs down but they should also be able to hurry up some of the weaker batters. A par score will be 250+.

Team NEWS:
RCB Team News:
There was a welcome return to the team for Australian all-rounder Glenn Maxwell ahead of the last match and with no injuries reported from the team management, we expect RCB to go with the same XI for this clash against Gujarat Titans.
GT Team News:
Although there will be pressure on Shubman Gill to announce changes at the toss ahead of this game, it would not be a big surprise if he kept faith with the same XI who posted 200/3 in the last match. Although Mohammad Shami is out for the tournament, the rest of the squad are all available for this game.

Winning Chances:
Cheered on by plenty of loud and noisy home supporters, we expect RCB to make it three wins on the bounce in this game against Gujarat Titans. The home team have a fantastic batting line-up which is firing at the moment and we predict that they will be too strong once more for a disappointing Gujarat bowling attack. We predict plenty of runs and are backing RCB to come out on top.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru to beat Gujarat Titans
Royal Challengers Bengaluru a 73% chance to win this match
Gujarat Titans a 27% chance to win this match
Key Players:
Royal Challengers Bengaluru
Virat Kohli
The all-format Indian star has had an excellent tournament so far but will be keen to get the Orange Cap back after Ruturaj Gaikwad went past his 500 runs in the campaign earlier this week.
Will Jacks
The English batting all-rounder will be full of confidence when he comes to the crease in this game after hitting an unbeaten century from only 41 balls in the last match against Gujarat Titans.
Mohammed Siraj
The India international dismissed Shahrukh Khan in the last game as he backed up his impressive figures from the win against Sunrisers Hyderabad.
Swapnil Singh
The spinner opened the bowling in the last game and may be called upon to do so again, particularly as he got the wicket of Wriddhiman Saha with his sixth ball.
RCB Possible Impact Player Substitutes
Mahipal Lomror, Anuj Rawat, Himanshu Sharma, Akashdeep Singh, Vyshak Vijaykumar
Such was RCB’s dominance in the reverse fixture that they did not utilise the impact player rule. We can expect Anuj Rawat to come in as an additional batter if required in this match.
Gujarat Titans
Sai Sudharsan
The left-hander has gone past fifty only twice in this IPL 2024 but he has been consistent and made contributions across the competition.
Shubman Gill
The right-handed skipper has hit 320 runs so far in the 2024 IPL and a big score from him could be what is needed to give the team a boost.
Rashid Khan
The Afghan bowling all-rounder conceded 51 runs from his four overs in the last game and he will be looking to avoid a third successive game without a wicket.
Sai Kishore
The young all-rounder is likely to be key in the bowling innings in this game with the quick bowlers expected to be expensive in Bengaluru.
GT Possible Impact Player Substitutes
Sandeep Warrier, BR Sharath, Manav Suthar, Darshan Nalkande, Vijay Shankar
Sandeep Warrier came in for the bowling innings in the last game and then only bowled one over. He has had a good season and we expect him to be used again in this match.
Team Forms:
RCB Team Form:
RCB are still bottom of the table after a poor start to the tournament but are targeting their third win in a row in this game.
GT Team Form:
Sandeep Warrier came in for the bowling innings in the last game and then only bowled one over. He has had a good season and we expect him to be used again in this match.
