GT vs RCB Dream11 Prediction Possible 11 Fantasy Cricket Tips for 45th Match of IPL 2024 | GT vs RCB Dream11 Prediction Today Match | Ahmedabad Pitch Report
Royal Challengers Bengaluru have shown great signs of fight as they bettered Sunrisers and were just short of a run against Knight Riders in their previous two games. However, they are still placed at the base of the points table with just a couple of wins out of nine games. One of the most loved teams would hope to continue their momentum and win something more than just hearts here.
On the other hand, Gujrat Titans are coming with a loss in their last game to DC where they almost got to the mark. The promising Ashish Nehra side has looked mediocre at times this season with four wins in nine games. With the playoffs doors still open, they have got a lot to play for in this game as well.
The exuberance of batters this season is climbing up day by day as the tournament passes. We are all set for another batting masterclass at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad, if the surface isn’t too conducive to spin.

- In T20s, Rashid has been successful to send both Faf and DK back to the dugout thrice in 45 and 29 balls respectively.
- R Sai Kishore can be a differential fantasy pick. He was introduced in bowling very late in the last game but his left arm spin is a work of art with an uncanny accuracy. He took four wickets against PBKS and can be a threat to RCB batting lineup who have tradition to collapse against a left arm orthodox bowlers.

- If Glenn Maxwell gets a game here he will surely look to make it count. He has a SR of 204 and average of 42 playing against GT.
