Royal Challengers Bangalore will be jostling for space at the top of the table when they meet Sunrisers Hyderabad in the 2022 Indian Premier League on Saturday night. RCB have five wins under their belt in seven games and in their previous match against Lucknow Super Giants, the red brigade registered an 18-run win with captain Faf du Plessis returning to form. While Dinesh Karthik's exemplary finishing skills remain one of the bright positives for RCB, Harshal Patel's return has also added heft to their bowling attack.
