Royal Challengers Bangalore and Punjab Kings are going to face each other on the day of Holi in the IPL. This is the sixth match of this season’s IPL. This match will be played at Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. Both teams have played their first match in IPL 2024. Punjab Kings had defeated Delhi Capitals by four wickets in their first match. Whereas RCB lost by 6 wickets in the first match of the season against Chennai Super Kings.
Chinnaswamy Stadium has hosted 88 IPL matches in the last sixteen seasons. The average first innings score on the pitch is around 172. The average second innings score hovers around 156 runs. It is clear from the statistics that the run chase is the winning streak at the Chinnaswamy Stadium. Since the game is in the evening, dew can also play a big role. So keeping statistics in mind, the skipper who wins the toss in Bengaluru vs Punjab will probably prefer to bowl first.
