RCB: Kya Defending Champions Phir Machayenge Dhamaal?
Pichle saal (2025) RCB ne wo kar dikhaya jiska fans ko barson se intezaar tha—IPL Trophy jeetna! Is saal RCB ek naye josh aur ‘Defending Champions’ ke tag ke saath utregi.
Key Players aur Strategy:
- Virat Kohli: King Kohli ka balla agar Chinnaswamy mein chala, toh SRH ke bowlers ke liye mushkil khadi ho jayegi.
- Rajat Patidar (Captain): Captaincy ke naye role mein Patidar ne pichle season mein sabko prabhavit kiya tha. Unki batting middle order ki jaan hai.
- Bowling Unit: Mohammed Siraj ki raftaar aur Yash Dayal ki swing shuruati overs mein wicket nikalne ki koshish karegi.
SRH: Pat Cummins ki ‘Silent’ Strategy
Sunrisers Hyderabad hamesha se apne aggressive style ke liye jani jati hai. Pat Cummins ki aguai mein ye team kisi bhi target ko chase karne ya bade se bada score khada karne ka dam rakhti hai.
Key Players aur Strategy:
- Abhishek Sharma aur Travis Head: Ye dono openers agar 6 over tik gaye, toh match RCB ke hath se nikal sakta hai. Unka strike rate hamesha 200 ke par rehta hai.
- Heinrich Klaasen: Duniya ke sabse khatarnak finishers mein se ek. Spin ho ya fast bowling, Klaasen har kisi ko boundary ke bahar bhejte hain.
- Ishan Kishan: Is baar SRH mein Ishan Kishan ka aana team ko aur mazbooti deta hai. Wicketkeeping ke saath-saath wo top order mein dhamaka karenge.
Head-to-Head: Kaun Kis Par Bhari?
RCB aur SRH ke beech hamesha se hi kante ki takkar rahi hai.
- Batting Friendly Pitch: Chinnaswamy ki choti boundaries aur sapat pitch batters ke liye jannat hai. Yahan 200+ ka score banna aam baat hai.
- Toss Factor: Shaam ke waqt ‘Dew’ (os) girne ki wajah se toss jitne wali team pehle bowling karna pasand karegi.
