RCB vs SRH Preview: Bottom-placed Royal Challengers will be searching for their second win of the IPL 2024 season as they host flying-again Sunrisers Hyderabad at M Chinnaswamy Stadium on Monday. Faf du Plessis-led RCB will enter this game with four successive defeats and desperately need a win to remain alive in the race for playoff qualification.
Bengaluru failed to defend 197 against Mumbai Indians at Wankhede Stadium with the latter chasing down a big target without any trouble. Faf, Rajat Patidar and Dinesh Karthik all recorded fifties each to show some much-needed batting form but once again RCB’s bowling attack proved toothless.
Meanwhile, Sunrisers Hyderabad narrowly defended 182 runs against Punjab Kings in their last game to register two consecutive wins for the first time in the IPL 2024. Pat Cummins-led Hyderabad are looking in a good rhythm to mount a title challenge this season.
Sunrisers might go to second spot in the points table with two more points against Royal Challengers with the latter looking to get out of the bottom place on Monday.
