IPL 2015 - RCB vs SRH: Venue, date and predicted line-ups

The Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) team will be travelling to Bengaluru to play against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at M Chinnaswamy Stadium. SRH will play their second match of the season and hope to open their account in the league table.
