Royal Challengers Bangalore are favorites to win
Royal Challengers Bangalore and Gujarat Titans meet on Thursday evening at the Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai in Match 67 of the 2022 Indian Premier League. RCB are in fifth place, currently outside the play-off positions by virtue of net-run-rate. Gujarat Titans are top of the table and have already qualified for the next stage. Read on as we preview this game. The match begins at 19:30 local time.
RCB were beaten by Punjab Kings in their last fixture after beating Sunrisers Hyderabad and Chennai Super Kings in their previous two. They have big game players who will relish the challenge of taking on Gujarat Titans.
Lucknow Super Giants and CSK have been beaten by Gujarat Titans in their last two matches. With qualification already secured, the Titans will need to be wary of complacency at this stage of the tournament.
TV channels: This match will be shown live on Star Sports in India, Sky Cricket in the UK and Fox Sport in Australia. Flow Sports will broadcast in the Caribbean with SuperSport possessing the rights in South Africa
Live Streaming: Fans can stream the match on Disney+ Hotstar and SkyGo.
Gujarat Titans lost the toss but won their last game at this venue batting second. We predict that both captains will choose to field first ahead of this match.
The Wankhede Stadium has always produced a pitch which attracts pace bowlers. We expect more of the same in this game with a par score around 185-195.
The temperature will be 30 degrees from start to finish with the humidity levels steady at 79% throughout Match 67.
Read on for team previews, betting tips, latest odds, and match prediction for Royal Challengers Bangalore vs Gujarat Titans, IPL 2022.
Targeting their third victory in a row, RCB were unchanged for Match 60 against Punjab Kings at the Brabourne Stadium. Josh Hazlewood and Mohammed Siraj were both very expensive in the last game but we expect both to retain their place ahead of this game.
RCB lost their last fixture to end a winning run of two games. The losing margin was 54 runs against Punjab Kings and RCB need to bounce back immediately in this match.
Faf du Plessis (c), Virat Kohli, Rajat Patidar, Glenn Maxwell, Dinesh Karthik (wk), Mahipal Lomror, Shahbaz Ahmed, Wanindu Hasaranga, Harshal Patel, Mohammed SIraj, Josh Hazlewood
After a comprehensive 62 run win over Lucknow Super Giants in the top of the table clash in Match 57 at the MCA International Stadium, Pune, it was no surprise to see Gujarat Titans unchanged ahead of their 7 wicket victory over CSK. We anticipate that Gujarat Titans will line up with the same XI in this fixture.
Gujarat Titans have won their last two games and have lost only three matches all campaign. Their last two victories have been by impressive margins.
Shubman Gill, Wriddhiman Saha (wk), Matthew Wade, Hardik Pandya (c), David Miller, Rashid Khan, Alzarri Joseph, Yash Dayal, Rahul Tewatia, Mohammed Shami, Ravisrinivasan Sai Kishore
Gujarat Titans came out on top by 6 wickets in the only previous meeting between the sides in Match 43 at the Brabourne Stadium earlier in this year’s tournament.

The odds are very tight but the bookies are predicting a win for Gujarat Titans. However, with qualification already secured for the Titans, we expect RCB to have the edge and to get the victory.
A win for Gujarat Titans would see them complete an impressive group-stage double over RCB. We would be surprised if this game was not very well fought with very little between the sides at the Wankhede Stadium.
Faf du Plessis has a fine recent record in the IPL and this season has been no different for the former South African international. du Plessis and Shubman Gill are the highest run scorers for their team with a 3 run gap between them.
Faf du Plessis, Virat Kohli and Glenn Maxwell are our batting recommendations for RCB. du Plessis has hit 25 IPL half-centuries in 106 innings. Maxwell top scored with 35 runs from 22 balls in RCB’s last match.
Shubman Gill, Wriddhiman Saha and Hardik Pandya are our batting tips for Gujarat Titans. Saha has been very impressive since breaking into the Gujarat Titans side towards the end of April and hit 67 not-out at the Wankhede in the last game.
For RCB, Wanindu Hasaranga, Josh Hazlewood and Harshal Patel are our bowling tips. Hasaranga 23 wickets at an average of 14.65 in the tournament so far. Harshal Patel has 18 wickets this campaign and is still in the running to win the Purple Cap for the second successive season.
For Gujarat Titans, Rashid Khan, Mohammed Shami and Alzarri Joseph are our bowling tips. Khan has 109 IPL wickets and is in 14th place overall in the wicket takers in IPL history. Joseph returned impressive figures of 1-15 from 3 overs in the win over CSK.
This should be an excellent game between two of the strongest sides in the competition. Gujarat Titans will be high on confidence after successive wins and qualifying for the play-offs whereas RCB will be desperate to put their defeat to Punjab Kings behind them. We are backing RCB to win this match at the Wankhede Stadium.
