RCB vs CSK- 3 Player Battles To Watch Out For: IPL 2021, Match 35

Mohammad Siraj has been very impressive so far for the Royal Challengers Bangalore in the first phase despite not being among the top wicket-takers. He has taken the new ball and has kept asking questions to the batsmen with his outswingers. He can also bring it back into the right-hander and he will be eager to get some early breakthroughs.

Siraj’s main threat will be against Ruturaj Gaikwad who looked solid in the first game against Mumbai Indians. Gaikwad’s unbeaten 88 made sure CSK put up a decent total on the board and ended up winning the game by 20 runs. This will be one of the interesting battles between Mohammad Siraj and Ruturaj Gaikwad in the 35th game of IPL 2021.

Deepak Chahar vs Virat Kohli:

Deepak Chahar was in terrific form against the Mumbai Indians and MS Dhoni used him very wisely by bowling out three of his overs upfront. His swinging abilities are among the best in India at the moment and he is also in the reserves for the T20 Worldcup. However, good form in UAE might just propel his case and he will have a tough time against Virat Kohli.

Kohli is one of the best in the business and he can hurt the opponent hugely without taking risks. He plays those exquisite drives on the offside but can also be vulnerable on the off-stump line at times. He will have to battle out against the likes of Deepak Chahar who likes to bowl those outswingers.

Kyle Jamieson vs Suresh Raina:

Kyle Jamieson did not impact much in the first game against the KKR as the low total did not help out the New Zealand all-rounder. However, Jamieson was superb in the first phase of IPL 2021 and he will be looking to replicate the same in the remaining games of the UAE phase.

Suresh Raina did not look good in the first game against Mumbai Indians as the bowlers came hard at him with the short balls. He failed to pick the line of the delivery and succumbed to a poor dismissal again. Jamieson will fancy his chances against Raina, given that he has the extra bounce and can hit the short stuff at a good pace.
