RR vs BLR Must Picks
Jos Buttler: Jos Buttler is coming off a century in the previous match. In this match, he is the most popular captaincy pick. In the previous game, Buttler was given full reign, and we all know how devastating he can be. He is one of the top openers in the Indian Premier League.
Sanju Samson: The Royals’ top batter, Sanju Samson, will attempt to take the lead from the start. Sanju has been outstanding in both matches. In the previous match, he scored 30 runs and in the first, he scored 55. Against RCB, he has 260 runs. Samson will make a fantastic captaincy choice for your fantasy team.
Mohammad Siraj (8.5 Credits) is the RCB’s main bowler. He’s been a rock-solid performer for them, picking up wickets both with the new ball and in the death overs. For 8.5 credits, Siraj will be a fantastic cheap option.
Sherfane Rutherford: Sherfane Rutherford will bat at number four for the Royal Challengers Bangalore. He is an aggressive player who can turn the tide for his team in a matter of balls. He missed his shots in the last game and will be an excellent differential option in this one.
