Virat Kohli vs Kagiso Rabada
The battle between Virat Kohli and Kagiso Rabada will be intense as both players are in great form this season. Kohli has so far scored 351 runs across 8 matches at an average of 58.50 and strike rate of over 162 for RCB. On the other hand, Rabada scalped 13 wickets from 8 matches at an average of 22.61 and an economy rate of 14.30.
However, Rabada has already gotten Kohli out 4 times in T20s, making their battle very interesting to watch out for the fans. He would love to continue troubling the RCB icon in Ahmedabad.
Shubman Gill vs Josh Hazlewood
Shubman Gill faces a tough test against Josh Hazlewood in the powerplay. Hazlewood has troubled Gill many times, and he would love to extend his dominance to Ahmedabad.
Currently, Gill is in great form with 330 runs this season, but Hazlewood is also on fire, coming off a stunning 4/13 spell against DC in RCB’s previous game. This makes their battle exciting for this match.
Sai Sudharsan vs Bhuvneshwar Kumar
Sai Sudharsan is having a strong season, scoring 322 runs in 8 matches with a solid average of 40.25 and a strike rate of 162. His confidence will be high after scoring a big century against RCB in their previous meeting. But the GT opener faces a tough challenge from Bhuvneshwar Kumar, who is currently the Purple Cap holder.
Bhuvneshwar has taken 14 wickets in 8 matches with an impressive average of 16.86 and an economy of 7.61. With his swing and control, Bhuvneshwar will make things tough for Sudharsan in this battle.
