As the 2014 IPL draws to a close there is still all to play for as Sunrisers Hyderabad host Royal Challengers Bangalore.
Having beaten Chennai Super Kings on Sunday RCB now have a chance of making the playoffs if they can record another victory over the Sunrisers in this tie.
Hyderabad’s loss to Kolkata Knight Riders at the weekend has effectively ruled them out of making the last four this year.
Bangalore’s form has been indifferent this season, with what is considered to be the best top order in IPL 7 failing to truly click.
AB de Villiers has been consistently effective, but both Chris Gayle and Yuvraj Singh have been erratic and more would have been expected from captain Virat Kohli.
However, there is still time for that to improve and with a bowling attack of Mitchell Starc and Muttiah Muralitharan in good form, things could pick up at just the right time.
The hosts also have a lineup crammed full of stars, but as yet things haven’t quite gone right for the newest franchise in the competition.
Skipper Shikhar Dhawan and the likes of Aaron Finch, Dale Steyn, Amit Mishra and Darren Sammy need to be at the top of their game to take anything from the Royal Challengers.
