Indian T20 League 2024

Eliminator: RAJ vs BLR 

Preview 

Rajasthan (RAJ) will play Bengaluru (BEN) in the Eliminator of Ind T20 League 2024 at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Wednesday (May 21). RAJ began the tournament on a high note, winning eight of their first nine games. Although, they have been on a losing streak since then. Skipper Sanju Samson will be keen to rally his side and bring a change of fortunes in this riveting fixture. 

On the other hand, Ind T20 League 2024 has been nothing short of a fairy tale for the BEN. They managed to win only one in their first eight games, but from there on turned things around, winning six on the bounce to power themselves into the playoffs. Faf Du Plessis and Virat Kohli will be raring to get the best of their teammates in this crucial tie, so their incredible run continues.

Pitch and Weather Report

Expect a good batting pitch with adequate help for the fast bowlers, Boult and Siraj will enjoy bowling with the new ball. Mitchell Starc showed promise for KOL in Qualifier 1 against HYD where he picked up 3 wickets inside the powerplay. However, batting is not going to become progressively easy in the first innings. 

No rain interruptions are projected for the day. Expect hot and humid weather conditions on Wednesday.
