GT vs RCB: After a strong start RCB are finally back to their old self, losing games that should be won. They restricted RR to a decent score and struggled in the chase while they collapsed to 68 in the game before that. Within two games, RCB have been made to look weaker then the side they were two weeks ago. As a batting unit, the team is struggling to fire and will need to have some strong contributions up top if they are to get back to winning ways.
The Gujarat Titans are on a roll. They broke Sunrisers win streak with a come-from-behind victory, chasing 22 in the final over. Rashid Khan and Rahul Tewatia played key roles to show that the side has some strong batting depth and can finish games with relative ease when the going gets tough.
Match: GT vs RCB
Date: 30th April 2022
Time: 3:30 PM IST
Venue: Brabourne Stadium, Mumbai
The weather is likely to be in the high 30s and early 40s for the day game with a lot of humidity. There is no rain predicted for the GT vs RCB game.
The surface is drying up and with the match being played through the day spin will play a strong role. Batting first in the heat will be a better option as it will allow players to use the worn pitch in the second half and will also keep the side batting first relatively fresh when they come out to field in the evening.

Shubman Gill, Wriddhiman Saha (wk), Hardik Pandya (capt), David Miller, Rahul Tewatia, Abhinav Manohar, Rashid Khan, Alzarri Joseph, Lockie Ferguson, Mohammed Shami, Yash Dayal
Faf du Plessis (capt), Virat Kohli, Rajat Patidar, Glenn Maxwell, Shahbaz Ahmed, Suyash Prabhudessai, Dinesh Karthik (wk), Wanindu Hasaranga, Harshal Patel, Mohammed Siraj, Josh Hazlewood
Both teams are likely to remain unchanged.
Rashid Khan
Rashid Khan was taken for runs in the previous game after being targetted heavily by Abhishek Sharma. Although he gave runs, he made up for his performance with the bat, hitting three sixes to win his side a game off the final ball. He has already won two games for his side with the bat and is proving to be a wonderful finisher this season, making him a key player as both a batter and bowler.
Josh Hazlewood
Josh Hazlewood is having a wonderful time in the IPL. He is among the wickets and is using the hard length well to take wickets across multiple faces. Unlike the previous season, Josh Hazlewood is starting to bowl in the death as well, making him a valuable asset in the side.
RCB arent in the best of forms while GT look balanced with both bat and ball, winning consecutive games. With a lot of talent in GT, they stand a strong chance of winning unless the likes of Virat Kohli and Faf Du Plessis can come up and support their side.
Match Prediction: GT will win the match.
