The 35th match of IPL 2021 will be played between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Chennai Super Kings on Friday. Chennai is currently in second position with 12 points from 8 matches; victory in this match will take them to number 1.On the other hand Bangalore will try to come back on track, forgetting the defeat in the last match. RCB captain Virat Kohli can also complete his 10,000 runs in T20 cricket in this match. However, the batting trio of RCB was a flop in the last match and Kohli scored just 5 against Kolkata. On the other hand, Rituraj Gaikwad scored an unbeaten 88 off 58 balls in the match against Mumbai Indians. This was his fourth consecutive fifty in the UAE. Chennai’s team will now expect 50+ innings from him for the 5th time in a row. In this case to get a victory over Chennai, Bangalore’s batting trio will have to be in form.
This match will be played in Sharjah and the wicket of this ground is considered to be a batsman’s paradise. The ground of Sharjah is quite small and so most of the matches have seen a score of 200+. In addition to this due to the small field, teams prefer to play with fast bowlers instead of spinners, because they get bounce in this ground.
