Faf du Plessis-led Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) are all set to lock horns with Sanju Samson’s Rajasthan Royals (RR) in match No. 60 of the ongoing IPL 2023. The two sides will square off at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on Sunday, May 14.
Both franchises are heading into the next fixture with contrasting results in the last game as RCB were handed a defeat by MI, whereas RR brushed aside KKR in their outing. The match proves to be crucial for both teams with regards to obtaining a spot in the playoffs. While RCB are one step away from being eliminated from the top-tier league, the Royals, on the other hand, will need to clinch the two points to climb up to the top three in the IPL Points Table.
