We now know that the Gujurat Titans will compete in the final of the IPL 2022, and now we just need to see who they will be playing against for the right to be crowned Champions of the 15th edition of the Indian Premier League. The final match of the Play-Offs will see the Rajasthan Royals play against the Royal Challengers Bangalore, and the winner will book themselves a spot in the final. Who do we feel will win this game? Well, below is our prediction of who will win the game, so check it out and see for yourself.

Rajasthan Royals Team Preview

The Rajasthan Royals did not play their best cricket in the Qualifier 1, but they still managed to put up a strong fight. Jos Buttler looked really out of nick at the start of the innings but, after quite a lot of fortune, he got back into the swing of things and managed to score 89 from 56 balls. Sanju Samson was at his fluent best in this match, scoring 47 from 26 balls, while Devdutt Padikkal chipped in with 28 from 20.

Their lack of batting depth has been compensated throughout the tournament by the three players that we just mentioned above, but there is no doubt that this is a team that can be hit hard by a couple of wickets early on. If you want to do some online cricket betting for the best batsman for the RR in this match, who would we suggest you place your money on?

Well, unfortunately for the RCB, it seems that Buttler has got his mojo back, and we would be very tempted to put our money on him to top score in this game and give his team a very good chance of making it to the final. In the 15 matches that he has played in during this tournament, he has scored 718 runs at an average of 51.29. So, you certainly are not throwing your money away if you go ahead and bet on him to be the top scorer.

While they have a number of quality batsmen, we actually feel that their strongest suit is their bowling. You can always rely on the likes of Trent Boult to pick up some early wickets, while the likes of Yuzvendra Chahal can be very hard to hit during the second half of an innings. We feel that it was their bowling attack though that let them down in the Qualifier 1 because three of the five that bowled had an economy of 10.00 or above, while the lowest economy in the match was 8.00.

If you would like to do some IPL betting on the top RR bowler for this match against the RCB, then who would we recommend that you bet on? Well, Chahal is the player that stands out since he has picked up 26 matches in 15 innings at an average of 17.77.

When it comes to their playing XI for this match, it will be pretty interesting to see whether the RR are tempted to bring in the likes of Karun Nair or Jimmy Neesham in an attempt to bolster their batting and sacrifice their bowling.

Royal Challengers Bangalore Team Preview

The Royal Challengers Bangalore were quite lucky to win the Eliminator against the Lucknow Super Giants as many things went their way, but the knock that Rajat Patidar played was out of this world. He struck the ball brilliantly from the second he walked to the crease, and he looked like he was batting on a totally different wicket to some of his teammates. He finished the innings on 112 not out from 54 balls, and will be one to watch in the Qualifier 2. Dinesh Karthik also produced an important knock, picking up 37 runs from 23 balls, to help the RCB to a final score of 207/4.

If you want to use IPL betting sites to place a bet on the top batsman for the RCB, then who is it that we would be tempted to put our money on? Well, we are actually tempted to put our money on Faf du Plessis, despite the fact that he did not score in the last match. He has been in fine form throughout the competition, scoring 443 runs from 15 matches an average of 31.64, so he is a good bet for such a market.

The RCB bowling attack is a really good, and the likes of Wanindu Hasaranga have more wickets to his name in the middle overs that any other bowler in this year's tournament. He has 25 wickets under his belt in the 15th edition of the IPL at an average of 16.16. Against the LSG, he was a bit expensive though, picking up just the one wicket and going for 42 runs from his 4 overs. Josh Hazlewood was the pick of the bowlers, picking up 3 wickets for 43 from 4 overs.

If you feel like making an IPL prediction on the top bowler for the RCB against the RR, then who would we opt for? Well, we always like the looks of Hazlewood and love the fact that he can always land the ball on a penny. So, yes, we feel that the Australian quick could end up being the bowler of the match for the RCB against the RR.

When it comes to the RCB playing XI for this match, we do not expect there to be that many changes, if any at all. We think that the same team who got them there will be the same team tasked with getting them to the final.

Toss Prediction

The toss prediction for this bag is going to be a tricky and interesting one for sure. We think that is the RR win the toss, then they will want to chase a total, while we think that the RCB will want to bat first if they happen to win the coin toss.

The last five T20 games at this stadium have proved that the toss does not really lay that much of a role since three games were won by the team that batted first and two were won by the team that batted second.

Pitch Conditions

This is going to be the first time in the 2022 IPL that the Narendra Modi Stadium will host a match, and we are expecting a belter of a wicket with bounce, pace, and plenty of runs. This is exactly what was served up when England took on India here last year.

The average match aggregate score at this stadium stands at 340, and only an average of 10 wickets have fallen in these games. This means that this surface could be a really good surface for batting and a tricky one for bowlers to avoid being carted around the stadium.

Our RR vs RCB Betting Tips

The bookies in their match prediction today have the Royal Challengers Bangalore as the slight favourites to win, but the Rajasthan Royals is the team that we predict will win this match today. We are betting on the RR because we feel that they have a batting firepower that is not found in the RCB camp. Also, we feel that the RCB bowling line-up will not be as suited to the wicket as the bowling attack of the RR.
