Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) are set to take on Rajasthan Royals (RR) in Bengaluru today. With five wins from eight matches so far, RCB come into this clash aiming to continue their momentum. In Sanju Samson’s absence, things won’t be easy for RR, who are in desperate need of a win. Otherwise, their chances of staying alive in the playoff race will become very slim. In the reverse fixture this season in Jaipur, RCB defeated RR by nine wickets.
