âCricket is a most precarious profession; it is called a team game but, in fact, no one is so lonely as a batsman facing a bowler supported by ten fieldsmen and observed by two umpires to ensure that his error does not go unpunished.â â John Arlott

Royal Challengers Bangalore are set to lock horns with Sunrisers Hyderabad in Match No.52.
The Challengers are still in with a chance of finishing in the top two.
If they win their last two games in the round-robin stage, they also have the chance of making it through to the Qualifier 1 by finishing in the top two.
They are on a three-match winning streak in the tournament, having beaten Mumbai Indians, Sunrisers Hyderabad and Punjab Kings in a row.
SRH, on the other hand, have kept on gasping for breath in the T20 league.
In their previous game, Kolkata Knight Riders beat them by six wickets in Dubai.
Even if they win their last two games, they will finish as the cellar dwellers. In their previous meeting, RCB beat the Sunrisers by six runs.
