Royal Challengers Bengaluru faced Chennai Super Kings on May 3

Royal Challengers Bengaluru has lost three games this season, all at home, which could become a challenge as they go to the final phase of the league. With four remaining games, three of which are at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, the team will have to address their inconsistent home form.

Unlike the previous seasons, where they were very based on key players like Kohli, the Royal Challengers Bengaluru have been successful through a more balanced team effort. Players like Tim David, Krunal Pandya, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Devdutt Padikkal and Josh Hazlewood have made a significant contribution to team victories.

The Bengaluru team will assume the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) at the M. Chinnaswamy stadium on Saturday, May 3. With a victory in the next game, they will confirm their Playoff Plan.

A victory over Bengalur would increase Chennai’s morale, giving them hopes to build a little time in the season. Could help them climb them to avoid ending at the bottom of the standings.
