RCB vs GT, IPL Toss Result: Today's match players list, teams & umpires for Match 67

Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) will face the Gujarat Titans (GT) in Match 67 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Thursday.

Irrespective of the result of the game, GT will finish on top of the IPL points table 2022 since no other side can touch 20 points. Still, Hardik Pandya’s men would be keen to head into the playoffs on a winning note. They have won their last two games. Hence, a victory against RCB would complete a hat-trick of wins for them to round off the league stage.

On the other side, things are much more complicated for Bangalore. They are on 14 points from 13 games. The Delhi Capitals (DC) also have the same number of points from as many matches. However, they have a much superior net run rate. Hence, Bangalore will have to beat Gujarat and then hope that Delhi lose their last league game against Mumbai Indians. That way, they can finish in the top four and qualify for the playoffs.

Gujarat Titans have won the toss and have opted to bat first. Speaking about the decision, skipper Hardik Pandya said:

“The kind of situation we are in, we thought we can practice batting first and putting a good score on the board. Looks like a similar wicket to the one we played against Chennai, but I expect this to play better as this is an evening game.”
