The Royal Challengers are falling fast. They need something drastic to happen to turn their tournament around but are struggling to find penetration with the ball. Their bowing is a huge concern and their batting has struggled too with Glenn Maxwell failing to deliver.

Sunrisers will be licking their lips at the upcoming prospect though. Small boundaries and a mediocre bowling line-up will keep them eager and they will be hoping to go really big in the upcoming game.
