An exciting matchup awaits between Chennai Super Kings and Royal Challengers Bangalore on Sunday. Josh Hazlewood may or may not be called into action.
Royal Challengers Bangalore are now fourth in the IPL standings, and the team has worked well together to win three of their first four games. RCB has found a new match-winner in every game thanks to the coordinated efforts of the three divisions of the team. Even when the going gets rough for RCB, one or more players have stepped up to the plate to help the team get to the finish line. RCB are scrambling to find a spot for Josh Hazlewood in their playing XI before their match against the Chennai Super Kings.
Here’s how RCB might line up against CSK in the Indian Premier League:
Anuj Rawat: That’s right. In the end, the left-handed hitter led his team to triumph against Mumbai Indians by scoring an impressive 66. Now, the youngster hopes to keep up the good work and help the team get off to a solid start.
Although Faf du Plessis has been in fantastic form, he has not been able to score many significant runs since the match against Punjab Kings. He’ll be desperate to get back to his best and put in a great performance for the team.
After scoring 48 runs against Mumbai Indians, Virat Kohli looked dangerous from the right-hand side of the plate. The former RCB skipper is now eager to make the most of the momentum he has built up since he regained his mojo.
After missing the previous two games due to injury, Glenn Maxwell returned to the XI against the Mumbai Indians. This young outfielder made an immediate impression, displaying incredible athleticism to come back with a run-out. In addition, he provides much-needed oomph to the team’s batting order.
Shahbaz Ahmed: Hello! The batsman’s coolness in the face of the Rajasthan Royals showed the world what he is capable of. Together with Dinesh Karthik, he can be the team’s ideal finisher.
This season, Dinesh Karthik has been in top form for his team, finishing off nearly every game. The right-handed batsman hopes that he can keep up the good work as he hopes to return to the Indian team.
When a family member died, Harshal Patel was forced to leave the RCB bio-bubble, and it needs to be determined whether or not he needs to be quarantined. Siddharth Kaul would be an ideal stand-in if he is unable to make it to the game.
Wanindu Hasaranga: The Sri Lankan spinner has been a vital factor in RCB’s success in this season’s IPL, taking wickets for the team in the middle phase.
There is no way that RCB can keep Josh Hazlewood on the bench because he is available and the franchise wants to bring him in for David Willey.
It was Akash Deep who shook the opposition and took wickets at regular intervals for India.
One cannot overlook Mohammed Siraj, who is one of the match-winners for RCB and can win a game on his own if he strikes in fast succession in the powerplay against Mumbai Indians.
