Royal Challengers Bengaluru will square off against Rajasthan Royals at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in the 42nd match of the ongoing IPL 2025 on Thursday. When these two teams met earlier in the season, RCB registered a convincing a nine-wicket win in Jaipur.
RCB has won five out of their eight matches but they are yet to win a single game in home conditions. On the other hand, RR have managed only two wins in eight games and they need to come up with an improved batting show.
RR have lost their last four games and they must pull up their socks as they are in must-win territory.
