Today in the 19th match of VIVO IPL 2016 Gujarat Lions will take on Royal Challengers Bangalore. Gujarat Lions who were undefeated in their first three matches tasted defeat in the last match against Sunrisers Hyderabad. The defeat exposed the batting line up as after failure of star batsmen Aaron Finch the team looked in shambles.
On the other hand Royal Challengers Bangalore despite having two of the best T20 batsmen in Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers have managed to win just two out of four matches. The bowling has been a concern for them so far and they would be hoping that in today’s match, the bowlers get their act together.
