Harbhajan Singh, a former Indian spinner and two-time World Cup champion, expressed confidence in Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) winning their last match of the league stage and securing a playoff position in the 16th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL).

On May 21 (Sunday), if Faf du Plessis' squad wins, they will advance to the next round as the fourth team. RCB has a far higher Net Run Rate (NRR) than Mumbai Indians (MI), despite the fact that both teams have one game left to play and are level on 14 points.

Since the Bangalore team will play the second game on Sunday, RCB will have the benefit of knowing by what margin they have to earn a victory in the event that MI wins their game with ease.

It will be a contest between the men from Delhi: Harbhajan Singh 

RCB will meet their rival Lucknow Super Giants in the Eliminator game if they make the playoffs, which is more likely. After defeating Kolkata Knight Riders on May 20 (Saturday), LSG secured their place in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 playoffs with their eighth victory of the year.

Harbhajan is eager to see RCB and LSG square off against one another this season. He mainly worries about another confrontation between Virat Kohli and Gautam Gambhir.

"If Kohli and Gambhir again face each other, I hope they do not clash again. I am only concerned about it. RCB are playing good cricket and if they win, they will qualify directly. Both Mumbai Indians and RCB will win tomorrow, but RCB are have much better net run rate. If RCB go ahead then it will be a contest between the men from Delhi," Harbhajan was quoted as saying on Star Sports.
