RCB vs GT Match Prediction
This is a must-win game for RCB if they want to stay alive in the tournament. If they lose this, they will be eliminated. Gujarat, on the other hand, have already made it to the playoffs. A lot of RCB’s chances in this game will depend on Kohli, du Plessis and Maxwell. If these three fail to deliver on the big occasion, this will be an easy for the Titans.
