IPL 2024 – Match 19, RR vs RCB: Will Jacks to replace Cameron Green? Royal Challengers Bengaluru Probable Playing 11 vs Rajasthan Royals
Cameron Green's middle-order batting performance falls short of expectations to RCB
The nineteenth game of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 will witness the clash of two royal sides in Jaipur’s Sawai Man Singh Stadium where the hosts Rajasthan Royals (RR) take on Royal Challengers Bengaluru on April 6, Saturday.
Bengaluru (RCB) captain Faf du Plessis is having a tough tournament with bat and as a captain too, which has affected his team’s performances and their combinations too.
Virat Kohli and Faf will need to ensure one of them tees off quickly to have a blistering Powerplay, whereas one needs to be there in the middle overs to shield the rest of the lineup from Back of length Pace bowling.
Rajat Patidar Regaining Form
Rajat Patidar has shown he’s returning back to his own, his batting against the rampaging Mayank Yadav made it evident
Maxwell at Jaipur may turn out to be an ace because of his extraordinary skill of handling Spin bowling which provides an extra dimension to this lineup because the rest of the top 3 like pace on the ball.
Cameron Green has looked out if depth in this IPL where he is finding it hard to adapt to the middle-order role, if his bleak run continues Bengaluru may try Will Jacks who can replace him.
Dinesh Karthik and Anuj Rawat will again look to provide the finishing touches to the innings after both of them failed to do it in the last game.
Rawat especially will have to take care he does not indulge in too many dot balls which may leave a lot of balls being conceded to the opposition.
Mayank Dagar to Lead Bengaluru’s Spin Attack Again
Mayank Dagar will again be the sole spinner of the Bengaluru team, he has been under par with his bowling but, Bengaluru do not have any other player to replace him which suggests how poor they were in the Auction.
Reece Topley and Mohammed Siraj will share the new cherry between them, they will be expected to take new ball wickets, wickets with the new cherry from these experienced campaigners will enhance the efficiency of the rest of the lineup.
Yash Dayal’s Performance Falls Short of Expectations
Yash Dayal may be left out for Vijaykumar Vyshak, Dayal has had an under-par IPL until now and Vyshak with the spell he showed against Kolkata makes him the front runner for the third seamers role.
Mahipal Lomror will be the Impact player of the Royal Challengers Bengaluru.
Here’s how the XI of Royal Challengers Bengaluru is looking ahead of their match against Rajasthan Royals:
Probable XI of RCB vs RR:
Virat Kohli, Faf du Plessis, Cameron Green, Glenn Maxwell, Rajat Patidar, Anuj Rawat(WK), Dinesh Karthik, Mayank Dagar, Mohammad Siraj, Vijayakumar Vyshak, Reece Topley
Impact Player: Mahipal Lomror
