Royal Challengers Bangalore go head-to-head against Gujarat Titans in the 70th match of the Indian Premier League at M Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru on 21st May, Sunday at 7:30 PM IST.
It was a dominant performance from Royal Challengers Bangalore at Hyderabad. The odds were stacked up against them but their batters delivered for them. It was a show by Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis. Virat Kohli was severe and was at his prime best. Brought up his sixth IPL hundred and with that Royal Challengers Bangalore kept their playoffs hopes alive.
Earlier with the ball, Royal Challengers were taken for cleaners by Heinrich Klaasen who scored a sublime hundred too but went in vain in the end. Royal Challengers Bangalore have to win this encounter to get into the playoffs.
Gujarat Titans have qualified for the playoffs with that win against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Another clinical win for Titans, they are once again showing why they are the only team that looks like lifting the title again. Gujarat against Sunrisers put up a brilliant total on the board, Shubman Gill went on to score his maiden IPL ton, but the rest of the batting faltered and ended up falling well short of 200.
It was the bowling that turned things around for Titans, Mohammed Shami and Mohit Sharma picking up 8 wickets amongst themselves to derail the chase for Sunrisers.

The pitch in Bangalore is a belter for batting. It offers very little assistance for the pacers and there might be something in it for the spinners later in the game. Teams batting first must ensure they post something huge and have the bowling to restrict in the second innings. The average first innings score is 160
The last game that was played was way back in April against Kolkata Knight Riders. Once again proved it’s a batting paradise and Kolkata put up 200 runs on the board. Bangalore failed to chase it as the spinners came in to play. 5 wickets were picked by pacers while spinners scalped 7 wickets.
