David Warner (593 runs) holds the record for the highest aggregate by a batsman in IPL games between SRH and RCB. Virat Kohli (531 runs) has been the most successful RCB batsman in matches versus the Orange Army.

Yuzvendra Chahal has taken the most wickets (16) in the matches between RCB and SRH. Meanwhile, Bhuvneshwar Kumar has dismissed 14 RCB batsmen while donning the orange jersey.

The match will be important to SRH as they look to bounce back from their defeat in the opening encounter against KKR. Warner will want to get some runs under his belt after losing his wicket early on last time out.

Royal Challengers Bangalore will want to build on their massive win against the Mumbai Indians in the opening game. The heavily loaded batting line-up will have to play to their potential to thrive against a tough SRH bowling line-up.
