RCB vs SRH – Predicted Playing XIs
RCB
RCB have picked up three consecutive wins and they have been quite entertaining in recent matches. Since the restart, the team has slowly picked up pace and they are in a great spot at this movement. The batting depth has been a major factor behind RCB’s good form and it will be difficult for the opposition if RCB get to bat first.
SRH
SRH have been woeful in the IPL since the restart. The Bangalore vs Hyderabad prediction will be heavily influenced by recent form of the two teams rather than the head-to-head numbers. In this regard, David Warner’s men are at a serious disadvantage. The complete lack of batting depth in the lineup continues to be a problem for SRH. However, the motivation to finish the season on a strong note is likely to keep the team on the boil for the game against RCB.
Let us take a look at the odds for the match:
RCB vs SRH Head to head

The RCB vs SRH head to head record shows a very tight contest that sees SRH in the lead by a slender margin.
