In their head-to-head record against their southern rivals, RCB has won 10 games and SRH has won twelve, with one match staying indefinitely tied. Hyderabad’s greatest score against Bengaluru is 231, while RCB’s highest total against SRH is 227. Furthermore, RCB has defeated the 2016 champs in three of their previous five games. RCB defeated SRH by eight wickets in their most recent IPL 2023 match because to a magnificent century from former skipper Virat Kohli off just 63 balls.

While SRH has a lot of quality in both the bowling and batting departments, RCB is mainly dependent on Kohli, who is leading the race for the Orange Cap. For the three-time finalists in the current competition, veteran wicketkeeper-battler Dinesh Karthik has also emerged as a key player. Furthermore, in order for RCB to win, the bowlers and remaining hitters must both greatly improve.
