Sunday, 28 Apr GT vs RCB Match Prediction, Betting Odds and Tips

Key match factors – GT vs RCB

• Ahmedabad has produced mid-scoring games until now. Bowlers should get assistance but teams should opt to field first after winning the toss.
• RCB got their confidence back against beating SRH and the Titans should not undermine them by any means.
• Rajat Patidar has scored 2 half-centuries on the trot. GT bowlers need to be wary of the in-form middle-order batter.
• Shubman Gill loves playing in Ahmedabad and his role in the next game will hold a lot of prominence.

Match Preview

Gujarat Titans (GT) and Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) will lock horns in the 45th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 on Saturday, April 27. The Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad will host the contest.

The Titans, led by Shubman Gill, are sitting in the bottom half of the table. They have 8 points and a net run rate of -0.974 courtesy of wins in 4 out of 9 games. They will look to get back to winning ways after losing to the Delhi Capitals (DC) by 4 runs at the Arun Jaitley Stadium.

Sandeep Warrier picked up 3 wickets for 15 runs, but the Capitals set a mammoth target of 225 for their opponents to chase down. Sai Sudharsan and David Miller scored 65 and 55, respectively, but their efforts went in vain. With 19 runs needed off the last over, GT fell short by a whisker.

RCB, captained by Faf du Plessis, on the other hand, are struggling at the bottom of the table with 4 points and a net run rate of -0.721. They need something extraordinary from here on to advance to the playoffs. However, the fact that they beat the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) on Thursday should keep them in a positive frame of mind.

After batting first, RCB put up a huge score of 206 for 7 on the back of half-centuries from Virat Kohli and Rajat Patidar. Thereafter, they restricted SRH to 171 for 8. Swapnil Singh, Karn Sharma and Cameron Green picked up 2 wickets apiece to keep RCB’s hopes alive in the tournament.
