Background
RR vs RCB Live Score, IPL 2024 Eliminator: It's a do-or-die contest between Rajasthan Royals (RR) and the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) coming your way live from the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Wednesday (May 22). In more ways than one, it's a contest between two sides who have had contrasting forms heading into this month.
While Bengaluru had a miserable start to the season and were on the verge of elimination from the race to the Playoffs, they win six matches in a row in the latter half of the season to pull a rabbit out of the hat and secure a spot in the Eliminator. Rajasthan, meanwhile, have just been the opposite- so good and clinical in the first half but struggling for a win in the latter.

In this must-win game then willl Rajasthan manage to get back to winning ways after a winless run for the entire month or will it be Bengaluru who have hardly put a foot wrong in May and have stormed their way into the final four. We shall find out over the course of the next few hours.
As far as as team news are concerned, RCB are expected to be unchanged given the way they have played and especially after their win over Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in their last league fixture where Glenn Maxwell came in place of Will Jacks and did make an impression with the ball and in a cameo with the bat.
As far as RR are concerned, the team might look to fit in a Shimron Hetmyer. The West Indian hard-hitting batter batter has been out with an injury since May 2 but with Rajasthan not in the best of form and desperate for a win in this big game, they can get back to him.
At the outset then, it appears to be a fascinating contest but dare we say it's RCB with their noses ahead, given the form and momentum behind them.
