What a stunning performance by the Rajasthan Royals to bundle out the Royal Challengers Bangalore for a paltry score of 70. RCB lost far took many wickets early on, and could never recover from the blows. Stay tuned for Rajasthan’s chase…
Here are the teams for today’s game. Interesting choice by Bangalore to keep Varun Aaron out. He has been in form this season. Perhaps this is because Ravi Rampaul came in.
Teams:
Rajasthan Royals: Shane Watson (c), Abhishek Nayar, Ajinkya Rahane, Karun Nair, Stuart Binny, Sanju Samson, Steven Smith, Rajat Bhatia, Kane Richardson, Tim Southee, Pravin Tambe.
Royal Challengers Bangalore: Virat Kohli (c), Parthiv Patel, Yogesh Takawale, Yuvraj Singh, AB de Villiers, Sachin Rana, Albie Morkel, Ravi Rampaul, Mitchell Starc, Ashok Dinda, Yuzvendra Chahal.
Rajasthan have won the toss and elected to bowl. Kane Richardson has replaced James Faulkner in the Rajasthan team. Karun Nair also gets a game as he replaces Dhawal Kulkarni. Sachin Rana has replaced Varun Aaron and Ravi Rampaul has come in for Muttiah Muralitharan for Royal Challengers Bangalore.
Hello and a warm welcome to the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2014 Match 13 between Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Royal Challengers (RCB). I am Devarchit Varma. I will be bringing the live updates of entire the game. Actually, RR have struggled to make their mark in IPL 2014. They have lost all their matches till now. So it has to be said that they have lots of issues to sort out before the all important clash against RCB. On the other end of the spectrum, RCB lost a nail biting match against Kolkata Knight Riders in their last game. A match that perhaps they should have won, but Chris Lynn’s excellent catch on the boundary line turned it around in KKR’s favour. RCB have a strong unit on paper, but they will have to think twice before picking Muttiah Muralitharan. The legendary spinner looked out of sorts in their last game against KKR. The good thing for them is that wicketkeeper-batsman Parthiv Patel has surprisingly done well for RCB this season.
For RR, other than Watson’s one innings, they have struggle d abit in terms of batting . Domestic players like Rahane have come up with one good innings but they have lacked consistency. Their bowlers too have perform better for them to make a mark in the upcoming crucial encounter.
