Regal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) would expect reversing the situation on protecting IPL champions Chennai Super Kings (CSK) this time around when the different sides meet at the MCA arena on Wednesday.
The shortfall of speed bowler Harshal Patel the last time around the different sides met had presumably shaken the RCB boat, as they lost the high-scoring game by 23 pursues yielding a mammoth 216 runs.
In any case, with Patel back in the side, RCB can expect a circle back, even as four-time IPL champions CSK will be floated by the showcase of firecrackers from openers Ruturaj Gaikwad and New Zealand's Devon Conway in their past game against Sunrisers Hyderabad, which CSK won by 13 runs.
Gaikwad and Conway had sewed together a record 182-run opening stand, after which Mukesh Choudhary's four-wicket pull fixed a 13-run triumph over SRH at a similar scene on May 1.
Super Kings and Bangalore have clashed multiple times, with CSK taking 20 successes and Bangalore getting nine successes, notwithstanding a no outcome.
