IPL 2017, RCB vs GL: Can Bangalore stand up to Raina’s struggling Gujarat?

With two of their last matches witnessing a horrific batting show in Kolkata and a wash-out due to rain at home, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) will hope for a turnaround when they face a struggling Gujarat Lions (GL) on Thursday.

Pursuing Kolkata Knight Riders' lowly total of 131 on Sunday, RCB, boasting the star troika of Virat Kohli, AB de Villiers and Chris Gayle, were floored for 49 all out in 9.4 overs -- IPL's lowest ever total, and lost the match by 82 runs at the Eden Gardens.
