T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion

[JSRAW]

Once again, Kohli is doing the heavy lifting, with Faf mostly silent at the other end. The good thing for Royal Challengers Bengaluru is that they didn't lost wickets in the initial powerplay, which is extremely hard when facing Trent Boult. I think this is the only match so far in this season where Boult didn't picked a wicket in his first over. Nandre Burger went for plenty as well. Samson has now turned to spin of Ravichandran Ashwin and Yuzvendra Chahal, and so far this duo has kept things decent enough (14 runs from 3 overs).  

With a strike rate of below 120, i won't call it heavy lifting but a dead weight.

This kind of anchoring is not required in t-20, one can understand such an approach when a collapse is happening from the other end but with the opening slot it's criminal. You've 10 wickets in hand so FFS play all your shots and go hard.

RCB is turning on the heat against RR in their own backyard, but their strike-rate is pretty low currently due to which they might end up scoring something close to 180 despite having 10 wickets in hand.

They need to score 200 at the very least against RR who are in great form these days. Am expecting RR to win this one though.

RCB captain Virat Kohli is batting brilliantly and thousands of Virat fans are cheering in the stadium after seeing his batting. If Virat Kohli can play today's match in the end, surely we will see a century from his bat, Virat Kohli is batting brilliantly. This player is unbeaten with 75 runs off 53 balls. Maxwell is batting with King Kohli but we have not seen Maxwell's batting so well in IPL but if Maxwell can bat well in partnership with Virat Kohli in today's match then surely we can enjoy some great batting from Maxwell.

Maxwell failed once again, but du Plessis managed to get a decent score. Kohli as usual batted like a one man army. I am not sure why Samson is using the spinners more often, as they were economical till now. Apart from Ravichandran Ashwin and Yuzvendra Chahal, Riyan Parag also bowled well when he was given the chance. Royal Challengers Bengaluru need to step up scoring rate, and the plus point for them is that Virat Kohli is still out there. Saurav Chauhan is at the other end, with Rajat Patidar, Cameron Green and Dinesh Karthik yet to come.

RCB are going good so far, after 15 overs RCB score is 129 and they have lost 2 wickets. There is 125 runs opening partnership between Faf du Plessis and Virat Kohli. Kohli right now is going with strike rate of 140 runs and if he can bat till end then surely RCB can score over 200 runs. RCB need to be careful at this stage as they have lost 2 quick wickets and if they keep losing wickets like that then they will surely not able to give target of 200.

RCB lost their second wicket, but Virat Kohli continues to lead from the front. He reached fifty in 39 balls, but the runs are coming slowly as usual.

The run rate is poor again, with less than 200 on the scoreboard. It's not a competitive total.

Considering it's the Jaipur pitch, Rajasthan can easily chase 180. Let's see if RCB can reach 200 today.

Seems like Aussies came to IPL only to get there share, mostly Aussie give average performance in IPL. They know that whether they perform or not there slot is reserved in IPL as compare to players from WI or SA who have to perform to retain there contract. Similar performance was seen from Mitchell Starc who was bought by KKR for ₹24.75 crore. Starc in his first two games of IPL was wicket less and gave 100 runs in his 8 overs.

Royal Challengers Bangalore played a great match against Rajasthan Royals today. Virat Kohli's excellent batting performance in today's match was really impressive and interesting. Virat Kohli managed to score a superb unbeaten century scoring 113 runs to take the team a long way for RCB to collect 183 runs today. In today's match, Rajasthan Royals could not get Virat Kohli out so Royal Challengers Bangalore managed to make such a huge score. However, in today's match against Rajasthan Royals, Royal Challenger Bangalee's win is very much possible if they can put up a good bowling performance, they will surely win. And in today's match surely Rajasthan Royals will also try hard to win the match and second innings will be more exciting as both teams will perform well to win.

Virat Kohli played a great innings for RCB as King Kohli performed like King Kohli. This player is unbeaten with 113 runs off 72 balls. However, no other RCB batsman could bat so well. Maxwell could not play such a good innings for RCB in this season of IPL. But Maxwell perhaps disappointed us and got out for just one run. Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis batted brilliantly as RCB managed to collect 183 runs. If RCB bowlers can bowl aggressively from the start against Rajasthan Royals batsmen then maybe RCB can win today's match.

If you see scorecard of RCB then it's only Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis who scored runs apart from that there is no player who was able to make it to double figures. Virat Kohli was not out on 113 runs on just 72 balls with strike rate of 157. RR have started there runs chase and lost the wicket of Yashasvi Jaiswal in very first over. !83 will be a good target and this will greatly test the capabilities of RR batting lineup.

In the match between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Rajasthan Royals in the 19th match of the Indian Premier League, we saw the first century of this IPL season from Virat Kohli. Virat Kohli continues to prove that he is a truly great batsman, so far in the few matches that Royal Challenge Bengal has played, Virat Kohli has scored more runs. Apart from Virat Kohli and Phap Duplessis, none of the batsmen got much chance or performed well in today's match, RCB's run would have been 200 plus.When Virat Kohli scored a century in this match today we thought Royal Challengers Bangalore would score a lot but they scored only 183 runs which could be an easy target for RR team.

The Rajasthan team stumbled in the beginning but their batsmen Jos Buttler and Sanju Samson handled the pressure perfectly. These two batsmen are becoming increasingly dangerous against the RCB team.Rajasthan need 116 runs from just 76 balls to win.

RR needs 107 from 72 balls and has 9 wickets in hand, looks like another lose in on cards for RCB. Jaiswal has been silent so far this season, what chances he has got for inclusion in T20wc squad if he continues like this? Butler finally playing a good inning.

The game is very much in RR favour, just 48 more required on 42 balls and 9 wickets left. 183 proved to be an easy target for RR or RCB bowling is not good enough to pick wickets and defend such a decent target. RR is unbeaten so far in this tournament and it very likely to remain unbeaten till tonight. Nothing wrong with RCB batting today but there bowling was disappointing.

Royal Challengers Bangalore's two openers managed to play big innings today. But Kohli and Dul Plessis needed to bat more aggressively. Kohli played a huge innings of 113 runs, but his strike rate was 156. Du Plessis scored 44 runs and batted at a strike rate of 136. And finally a descent of 184 runs provided a target for the Royal Challengers Bangalore team. If Bengaluru's bowlers were in good form, this collection would have been enough to win. But Bengaluru's bowlers are not in good form.

Due to poor bowling by Bengaluru bowlers, the match was completely in the possession of Rajasthan Royals batsmen. Rajasthan lost the wicket of Jaiswal in the first over. And at the end of 14 overs, Rajasthan collected 145 runs with the loss of 1 wicket. Rajasthan's batsmen need only 39 runs to win in the last 36 balls. Rajasthan Royals are going to get a very easy win.

[Haunebu]

RCB are over-dependent on Kohli so far in this season. Also, why the heck wouldn't they send Karthik before Green, Maxwell etc who is in great form these days. Dumb management!

Nothing wrong with RCB batting today but there bowling was disappointing.  

Nothing wrong? You have got to be kidding. Except Kohli and Karthik, everything is wrong with their batting line-up and it doesn't help that all of their bowlers except Topley keep bowling like shit.

Today Royal Challengers Bengaluru gave a huge target that was such a good target but they should know that on the opponent they have Rajasthan Royals.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru should have tried to give a target of more than 210 runs because the pitch was very good for batsmen and they have also a good team which is also known as the good batsmen team of the Indian Premier League. On Sawai Man Singh Stadium pitch, Royal Challengers Bengaluru can be made a huge target but time has been passed since they have had the opportunity to perform. Now, they can only hope with their bowlers or try to play well in the next matches.

183 runs will never going to be enough for Royal Challengers Bengaluru and we are here to see another easy win for Rajasthan Royals today.

Only Virat Kohli was the player in his team who played well. The team of Royal Challengers Bengaluru target in total was 183 in which Virat Kohl made 113 runs now the remaining score is 70 in which 11 were extras means from wide, or no ball or any others but now the other whole team made 59.

In simple and easy words without Virat Kohli, the team made 59 runs. Just imagine, if there was not Virat Kohli then the team would be out at 59 runs but I also think that it will be more less than this because there is pressure too much. In this match, Virat Kohli was making runs from a side that’s why they don’t feel pressure but his strike rate was only 156 which is not up to the standards of the IPL or T20 cricket.

I would not call a target of 184 runs on this pitch a small target. Virat Kohli has batted well. 72 or 113 runs were unbeaten. Besides, none of the batsmen in the squad could bat well. Du Plessis scored 44 runs but his batting was a bit slow.

Bengaluru lost only because of their poor bowling. And in almost every match we see poor performances from Bengaluru's bowlers. Apart from Mohammad Siraj, there is no other experienced bowler in the squad. Rajasthan's batsmen did not have any problem in collecting 184 runs. Jos Buttler was unbeaten with 100 runs off 58 balls.

Nothing wrong? You have got to be kidding. Except Kohli and Karthik, everything is wrong with their batting line-up and it doesn't help that all of their bowlers except Topley keep bowling like shit.

I will also say that royal challengers Bengaluru did good at batting but bowling was disappointing. I agree with you that Glenn Maxwell and Saurav Chauhan gave an unexpected performance today.  On the other hand, Cameroon lost some valuable bowling in the last over and their run rate dropped slightly towards the last over.  But even after Virat Kohli has played brilliantly, I think the match is more concentrated if it is a team work rather than one such player getting a century. Like if the all batsman have strike that more than 180 then it will be more class point for a team.
Anyway I think in today the best performer is George butler he was in rocks today. I thought you will not be able to touch century today but at the end of the match he did it. And he took UP Rajasthan Royals on the rank number 1 in point table.
