Against Rajasthan Royals, who have been in poor form in the last few matches, they may still be difficult to beat, especially when the absence of their explosive batsman Jos Buttler is taken into account. But, RCB’s confidence is higher than ever before in the history of this competition.
The month of May has seen massive changes in the fortunes of both sides. RCB could not win at one point but have now won six in a row, which has helped them write one of the biggest comeback stories in the history of cricket.
RCB has not only won matches but has also kept statisticians, fans, experts etc. busy by breaking records and net-run-rate barriers match after match. Since April 25, when they won their second game against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), till now, they have produced some strong figures after a poor first half.

RCB has also improved a lot in the powerplay. He has taken more wickets in the powerplay and his economy rate has also come down significantly. Apart from this, their batting has also made a splash, the biggest example of which is the unique performance of their top batsmen.
Improvement in run rate and bowling: RCB’s overall run rate at the start of the season was 9.73, which was the fourth best. But, since the win against SRH, his run rate has gone up to 11.03, which is the best in the league.
Improvement in middle overs batting and a huge leap in powerplay bowling propelled him forward.
Batting pace: Along with run rate, RCB’s batting also makes them the leading team. They have documented that they can fight in any circumstances.
Finally, RCB have cemented their place among the best batting side in the tournament. This season, his batting has left all the legends behind.
In the playoff clash against Rajasthan Royals, RCB will have to work on maintaining their good form while Rajasthan will have to use all their skills to arrest their decline. This matchup is worth watching to see who advances to the playoff stage and which team has to take charge.
