RCB vs GT fantasy tips

Faf du Plessis

With a place in the playoff at stake, the contribution from Faf du Plessis at the top will be important for RCB. Apart from a few matches, the RCB skipper has scored runs on a consistent basis. Du Plessis would be looking to score big in this must-win clash.

Wriddhiman Saha:

The wicketkeeper-batsman from Bengal has been able to provide a solid start to the team and has scored 3 half-centuries. In the last game against Chennai Super Kings, he made 67 runs off 57 deliveries and won the Player of the Match award. He would be looking to putting up a similar performance just like in the last match.

Rashid Khan:

He is the second-highest wicket-taker this season for GT and will play an important role in the RCB vs GT match. So far the leg spinner picked 16 wickets in 13 matches and will look to add more wickets in th upcoming match.

Wanindu Hasaranga:

The Sri Lankan spinner is the leading wicket-taker for RCB this season and stand a chance to win the orange cap if RCB qualifies for the playoffs. He has taken 23 wickets in 13 matches so far and will be crucial during middle overs when th e team will look to stop the opposition from scoring.

Glenn Maxwell

The Australian will have to come good with bat and ball in this crucial encounter. If Maxwell does get going then it will be difficult for Titans bowlers to stop the run flow.
