As the match being held in Bangalore ,RCB are Red Hot favorites’. They also have momentum with them. They won four games consecutively to make it to play off’s. Virat Kohli has led the side from the front with aid of ABD De Villiers and Watson. Gayle has finally found some shape which is a positive aspect for them. Though they have purple cap holder(Chahal),Their bowling is the only reason for their losses in the earlier part of campaign.
If there is any team which could match destructive power of RCB, it is Gujarat lions. Not only with their batting depth, but also with the power hitters like Finch, McCullumn, Dwayne Smith E.t.c. Though Gujarat managed to finish up at the top of the table. They had a rough patch in the mid tournament. Moreover, two out of Kohli’s four centuries came against Gujarat Lions.
Kohli is on the verge making thousand runs in a single season Which is an unprecedented milestone in any tournament. He is more likely to achieve it as he has got minimum of two more outings.
Batting is the strength of both the teams. Toss winning team is expected to persist to trend of chasing. Especially Gujarat, would not like to give Virat a target to Chase. No rain in the forecast, but Bengaluru climate i s unpredictable.
