IPL 2024 Match 52 | RCB vs GT | Fantasy Tips, Prediction & Preview

Royal Challengers Bengaluru will take on Gujarat Titans in match 52 of IPL 2024. Mumbai will be coming into the game on the back of three consecutive losses and the side will aim to get back to winning ways. On the other hand, the Knight Riders won their previous game.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru after losing six games on the trot have won their last two games in a much dominating fashion. They have four games remaining and even if they win all four games, they will get to 14 points which might not be enough to get them through to the playoffs. But for the moment, mathematically they are still alive. Their batting and bowling seem to have synchronized in the last two games. They would look to keep up the momentum.

On the other hand, Gujarat Titans have won just four out of the first 10 games. They are now in a position where they need to win all their remaining four games to make the playoffs. GT have been inconsistent as a side and too heavy in reliance. They have depended heavily on the likes of Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharsan to score runs for them consistently. With the ball, they have dearly missed Mohammed Shami. Rashid Khana and Mohit Sharma have not been as successful as they were last season. The rest of the bowlers have not backed up the two-strike bowlers.
