RR if played sensibly should win this match as they now require only 73 in 57 balls and 9 wickets are remaining. They should not do any thing silly like Delhi did ystd losing 6 wickets for just 8 runs and easily chase able score they had lost the match.

Well in pen and paper RR should win the match but it's hard to say this now. We have seen them before in matches they were suppose to win but collapse at the end. So I will wait.

And another gone! This time Buttler.

RR need 27 runs from 20 balls with 8 wickets remaining. Seems like an easy win for them if something unexpected like yesterday don't happen. RCB is playing very poor. They could have done well if their management was better.

I am also seeing the win for RR.

RCB is performing their worse this season. All these big players are useless when the management is poor. This team could do better.

Lost my bet by betting on RCB. RR played excellently in all departments while RCB continues to underperform. At this stage, I don't see much hope left for RCB unless they restructure their team or their players need to improve drastically in all departments.

Sorry for you lose bud.
Me too don't see any hope for RCB in this season. The team started with very high expectation but could not deliver anything yet. The best two teams in my opinion is CSK and KXIP. KKR is also doing very good.

Sorry about that bud , I wanted to place some money on them too but fortunately I didn't .
Well three things are for sure in our life now ,
1.Birth
2.Tax
3. RCB never winning the IPL title
4. Death

RCB changing their openers like clothes in this season. In my point of view if Rcb continues to lose or fails to enter the top 4 then Kohli should resign from captaincy here. they still have 10 games or so first he and coaching staff need some brainstorming with Opening pairs. now even die-hard RCB's fans are frustrated with team performance.

CSK is playing is like the Champion team, they actually don't care about win or lose. it happens when the team average age comes above 30+

KXIP doing good atm but they have a habit of choking. they did the similar stunt in last season too, so crossing my fingers for them this year.

[Pffrt]

I think like as me, it's better not to bet on Dehli/RCB or against them, both of the teams are like Pakistan. No one can tell when they will play good or bad. All of their match are full of unexpected things.

ROFLMAO....

This is another unresolved mystery in the cricketing world. Royal Challengers Bangalore is being captained by the best cricket player in the world at present, and they have managed to loss all their matches till now. If Virat Kohli is able to single-handedly win so many matches for India, then what is preventing him from doing the same for RCB? And it is not like the other team members are of club cricket standard. AB de Villiers can destroy the opposition bowling attack when he is in form and Yuzvendra Chahal ranks among the top-10 bowlers as per the ICC ranking.

As like I said earlier, RCB is unpredictable all the time with best players. Moreover, their managing skill is too poor. They still can't find out a perfect opener with Parthiv Patel. You know CSK players are not the best but Dhoni and their management can handle with their current players. That's where RCB is lacking of.

Lol I agree with Delhi Capitals and Pakistan being similar but not with RCB. You can clearly tell if they are going to lose , it's just lack of strategy .

It's overconfidence according to me. Kohli is world class and so are many others in the team , it's very entertaining team too but lack of strategy , game plan and over confidence is the reason they are losing many matches.

Will you be surprised if they score 250 in one of their match? I will not because in their day, Kohli and AB can do this kind of score easily. However, it's tru that RCB is predictable this days.

RCB lost 4 matches straight in a row and surprisingly they are not even giving any tough fight inspite of having a great team where players like Kohli and De-Villers are in the side. Last year as well they performed badly and their run continues and this is not a good sign.

That is their problem,how long they can rely on Kohli and De villiers performance?

Cricket is a team effort so all the players need to perform well and now even ABD looks not effective so someone needs to step up for RCB from the next matches or they are out of the tournament.

Virat Kohli is the best batsman in the world at present, but this does not imply that he is the best captain at present. He is a great captain, but he still has a long way to go to reach Dhonis level in terms of captaincy.

I honestly feel sad that so many people are degrading RCB instead of encouraging them to work hard and turn things around. Their own fans seem to have given up on them.

In my opinion, RCB needs to restructure their team or team members need to drastically improve in order to qualify for the playoffs.

Today one of the big match is coming up on this tournament MI vs CSK and it is high voltage match since their are the best rivals on these tournament and MI slightly have better stats against CSK in the past year but CSK 3 out of 3 will give huge boost for this match as well.My pic will be CSK due to the experienced side lets see the action in few hours.

The chance of MI is very low in my opinion. CSK has a very well balanced team with experienced players. History doesn't repeat all the time. Back in the days, MI players were better than now. I think CSK will win today.

I am on the same page.

Over confidence and not to count the opponent.

No doubt Kohli is one of the best player in the world but that does not mean that everyone else do not play cricket. It's IPL, the highest level of cricket. The best are playing against the best. A minor mistake can take the match away but if you notice yesterday, RCB dropped 4 catches (let's say 3, because one was a half chance in the short mid on).




Anyway, I am looking forward to the CSK vs MI. The real champion team is playing today.

[AB de Royse777]

Meanwhile, Kohli hints there will be huge changes to the RCB XI, is this enough to register their first win?

I doubt. A team need mental strength too. When you lose 4 matches in a line then it's hard to stay psychologically cool. You will always have this in mind that you are not doing well.

I will not count RCB for the 2nd round.

Anyway, CSK had a good start so far. They just need few wickets until MI starts to hit the ball.
