Rajasthan Royals Key Player
Honestly, Jos Buttler. The only problem is, he is not playing. He has been the sole reason for RR is still surviving in the tournament. He won three games for the side on the trot, and also scored five consecutive fifties. But with the Test match call up, he is gone back to England. In his absence, Darcy Short and Heinrich Klaasen needs to take the charge with the bat. Allrounder Jofra Archer also needs to show that he can bat - he did so in the Big Bash.

IPL Last Night
It was a dead rubber- and as expected, the match did not provide any excitement to the fans. Delhi Daredevils, somehow clinched a victory, while Chennai Super Kings played a Test match, chasing 162. MS Dhoni could not provide the finish, and Ambati Rayudu scored another fifty. Oh, and remember Harshal Patel? He played his best IPL match this season. 36 runs in 16 balls, and the massive wicket of Rayudu. He was declared man of the match.

RR vs RCB Live
In a do-or-die match, Rajasthan Royals will clash against Royal Challengers Bangalore. Both teams need a win to survive in the tournament. But while Virat Kohli's RCB are flying at the moment with three big victories on the trot, Rajasthan Royals are in trouble with the in-form batsman Jos Buttler, leaving for England, RR will be without him and will have to depend on the rest of the batting line up to fire.
For Rajasthan Royals and Royal Challengers Bangalore, it is simply a do-or-die encounter. The team that wins the match will almost seal a playoff spot for themselves. On the other hand, the losing side will have to bid farewell to the tournament. Rajasthan Royals track record in home games has been impressive this season. In last four games, they have won three at home, and skipper Ajinkya Rahane will hope that his side can once again make the most of the home ground advantage against a RCB side that are flying high on confidence at the moment. Jos Buttler has gone back to England and will miss out on the match - a fact that might hurt RR. Buttler has been in a terrific form in the past four games. RCB will feel much more confident with their bowling line up in Buttler's absence.
