The Royal Challengers Bangalore face off against the Gujarat Titans in a must-win encounter on Thursday, May 19, at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.

I took Tilak Varma out over Daniel Sams and, as a result, brought in Nitish Rana over Tim Southee.

Transfers

Transfers used: 2 Transfers remaining: 8

1) Andre Russell (ALL) (KKR) (10.5 Credits) - OUT | Glenn Maxwell (ALL) (RCB) (10 Credits) - IN

2) Nitish Rana (BAT) (KKR) (8.5 Credits) - OUT | Wanindu Hasaranga (ALL) (RCB) (9 Credits) - IN

3) Deepak Hooda (ALL) (LSG) (8 Credits) - OUT | Rajat Patidar (BAT) (RCB) (6.5 Credits) - IN (Uncapped Transfer)

With their playoffs spot on the line, I expect a full-strength RCB to show up against GT. I'm fully backing Faf Du Plessis and Co. for this encounter and intend to make 2-3 transfers for this match. Glenn Maxwell is yet to win RCB a match on his own, and now would be a great time to do it. The in-form Wanindu Hasaranga could wreak havoc with his leg spin, especially when defending a total.

Rajat Patidar has used his opportunities at No. 3 to the best of his abilities and has been one of the positives for RCB. He could be called into action if an early wicket falls and could make some runs in this match. If I want to bring an uncapped bowler like Yash Dayal or Sai Kishore, I'll take Mohsin Khan out instead of Hooda or Rana.

Quinton De Kock's record-breaking partnership with KL Rahul derailed the steady momentum I had built up over the last few matches. However, I never once considered bringing him in and don't rue missing out on his haul that much. With four group stage matches to go and a good amount of transfers left, I want to get to a good position before the IPL playoffs begin.

Maxwell hasn't delivered a 100-plus point haul so far, and I'm hoping he's saved it for the last match. GT does have a fair amount of left-handers in their lineup, and Maxwell could contribute with both the bat and the ball. I am a bit worried about going without the likes of Shami and Hardik Pandya, and if at all I make a third transfer, it could be to bring them in.

Captaincy: Glenn Maxwell and Hasaranga look to be the favorites for the captaincy. I'll make the final decision after the toss, though
