Royal Challengers Bengaluru will take on Rajasthan Royals in the Eliminator of IPL 2024 on Tuesday at the Narendra Modi stadium in Ahmedabad. Faf du Plessis and co. made a stellar comeback, winning six consecutive games in the latter half of IPL 2024 to storm into the Playoffs. Meanwhile, RR slacked after a successful run in the first half of the tournament, resulting in a third-place finish. The winner of this tie will go on to face SRH in Qualifier 2 on Friday.

Out
There you go. As one was getting ready for a big one from Virat, he gives a simple catch in the deep by Kohler-Cadmore.
RCB: 56/2 after 7.2 overs.

What’s a good score?
RCB has laid the foundations of a perfect score. Kohli needs to bat deep.
RCB: 56/1 after 7 overs.

Game perfectly balance
Despite a wicket falling, the game is balanced. RCB has scored 50 runs, but given the number of runs that can be scored on this pitch, it may be a par powerplay score.
RCB: 50/1 after 6 overs.

What a catch!
Rovman Powell may have turned the game in the Rajasthan Royals favor with an incredible diving catch to send RCB captain Faf du Plessis back.
RCB: 37/1 after 4.4 overs.

Faf on fire!
Some heavy hitting from Faf du Plessis. He’s hit two fours to Avesh Khan, and Kohli hit him for a six as well. 17 come from the 4th over.
RCB: 34/0 after 4 overs.

Great first over
Boult has started things off nicely. Just two runs and two great balls troubled Faf and Kohli both.
RCB: 2/0 after 1 over.

Faf & Kohli in the middle
RCB openers are in the middle, and Trent Boult has the new ball in hand. Here we go.

Faf says
Would’ve done the same. Watching the game last night, there was assistance for the seam bowlers early on. This looks on the drier side with some fake grass on top. We’ve had that mindset right through. Focussing on your own skills, being true to the way you want to play. Last game against CSK was an unbelievable one. Less is more. People think when you get to the knockout stages, you need to be Superman. It’s just showing the boys that you trust them. Same team.
