IPL 2022, GT vs RCB: Gujarat Titans look to prey on deflated Royal Challengers Bangalore

Royal Challengers Bangalore will look to turn around their slump in form when they take on table-toppers Gujarat Titans in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 at the Brabourne Stadium on Saturday. Poor displays with the bat saw RCB suffer defeats against SunRisers Hyderabad and Rajasthan Royals. While their bowling has been fine, they will be very concerned with the form of their batters, especially Virat Kohli. After two consecutive golden ducks, he was moved up to the opener's slot, with Anuj Rawat making way for Rajat Patidar against RR. However, Kohli scored just 9, while Patidar could only muster 16. One batter that could be given a go is Mahipal Lomror, who may come in for Patidar to give them more explosiveness in their middle order.
