Royal Challengers Bengaluru will square off against Chennai Super Kings in a high-octane clash on Saturday evening at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium.
This game will decide the final four in the playoffs as CSK will directly qualify by winning this game, while the RCB will have to win by a slightly bigger margin to leave CSK behind in the net run-rate. Meanwhile, in this post, we will try to predict the top three batters who will score the most runs in today’s RCB vs CSK IPL match.
1 – Virat Kohli
Performance in IPL 2024 | Record against CSK | Record at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium |
661 runs in 13 matches at a strike rate of 155.16 | 1006 runs in 32 matches at a strike rate of 124.97 | 2993 runs in 88 matches at a strike rate of 142.32 |
Virat Kohli is the current Orange Cap holder in the IPL 2024 and he has always scored runs at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium as well. The Run Machine has scored 4 centuries at this venue and you could expect him to score runs in a pressure game like this.
2 – Ruturaj Gaikwad
Performance in IPL 2024 | Record against RCB | Record at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium |
583 runs in 13 matches at a strike rate of 141.50 | 199 runs in 7 matches at a strike rate of 122.84 | 3 runs in 1 match at a strike rate of 50.00 |
Ruturaj Gaikwad is the leader of the CSK’s batting unit and he is also the second-leading run-getter in the tournament, behind Virat Kohli. He has been consistent with the bat this season and he will be eager to play a decisive knock in a vital game tonight.
3 – Rajat Patidar
Performance in IPL 2024 | Record against CSK | Record at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium |
320 runs in 13 matches at a strike rate of 179.77 | 21 runs in 2 matches at a strike rate of 116.67 | 113 runs in 6 matches at a strike rate of 136.14 |
Rajat Patidar has been the architect of the RCB’s comeback this season. After a slow start, the right-handed batter found his rhythm and has been smashing the bowlers ever since. His ability to take on the spinners during the middle overs is second to none. Rajat Patidar has smashed 4 half-centuries in the last 5 games and he will like to continue his form.
