RCB made a significant decision to bench Green, whom they acquired in a cash trade for INR 17.5 crore, in the last game and brought on the highly-rated Will Jacks. Jacks showed glimpses of his potential before chipping a catch for 8, but there are high expectations for him. With a T20 strike rate of 158.60, Jacks can alleviate the pressure on an under-fire RCB batting line-up.
Travis Head is facing the team for which he made his IPL debut, and he will be aiming for a big score. Following his 62 against Mumbai, Head has not produced any significant scores and will be hoping to make another big impact. He will face plenty of pace, which should suit him well. The Chinnaswamy stadium may provide the perfect opportunity for him to excel once more.
