IPL 2024: Eliminator, RR vs RCB Today Match Prediction - Who will win today's IPL match?

The Royal Challengers have stormed into the playoffs. Three weeks ago they were down and out with one win in the first half. A magnificent run though sees them scrape through to the playoffs. They have the momentum and are now against a side that is missing out on a lot of momentum. The Rajasthan Royals dominated the first half from their end, ruling the top of the table before a slump of five losses took things away from them and pushed them down to the third.

RR vs RCB Key Players

Cameron Green

After coming back into the line-up Cameron Green has been pretty good with both bath and ball. Runs are coming well and the bowling too has been pretty effective for him.

Yashashvi Jaiswal

With Buttler gone, Jaiswal will have to find some consistency. He has played pretty well this season regardless but the slump is starting to like a concern which is where Jaiswal will be hoping to make some changes.
