The last year’s finalist Sunrisers Hyderabad have struggled to hit the strides of last season. They have only managed four wins thus far and have been knocked out of the tournament. In the last game they beat RR. As per our calculations, RCB are favourites in the upcoming game.

Abhishek Sharma has lacked consistency thus far but has still managed to score 373 runs and is the leading run scorer. In the last game he scored a half century which makes us believe he will score well in the upcoming game.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Sunrisers Hyderabad Betting Odds

Royal Challengers Bengaluru to have a better opening partnership than Sunrisers Hyderabad

Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Sunrisers Hyderabad head into this game after both sides have had contrasting campaigns thus far. Sunrisers Hyderabad made the finals last season but have looked a shadow of themselves this term as they performance this season has been below par and have been knocked out of the tournament. They will be hoping to end this campaign on the high. On the other hand, Royal Challengers Bengaluru haven’t played a single game since 3rd May, yes they are well rested but on the flip side it could hamper their momentum as they have been brilliant so far and another win would put them in pole position to seal a top two spot. We expect Phil Salt to return in this game after he has missed the last two games due to illness. We expect RCB openers to dominate once again in an away game and RCB to have a better opening partnership in the upcoming game.
