This is the second time these two teams will face off in IPL 9. The first time was at Bengaluru in the fourth match of the tournament. On that occasion Virat Kohli (75), AB de Villiers (82), and Sarfaraz Khan (35*) combined to take RCB to a massive 227 for 4. SRH were helped by David Warner’s 58-run opening blitz, but none of the others managed to replicate his efforts and RCB won easily by 45 runs.

Given how brilliantly Kohli and de Villiers have played throughout IPL 9, RCB deserve some luck. Sadly their bowling has held them back, but with the advent of Tabraiz Shamsi and Chris Jordan the bowling now looks less brittle. It is a though game to predict. RCB will hold the slight advantage given their batting, but SRH will not be easy to beat at home.
RCB have continued to do wonderfully with the bat. Kohli has been phenomenal with the bat, and is currently the holder of the Orange Cap. On the other hand, SRH have relied largely on Warner for their starts. The bowling has been good, with Mustafizur Rahman being one of the standout bowlers of the tournament so far.
