Royal Challengers Bangalore and Rajasthan Royals will play the 39th match of IPL 2022 on Tuesday. Royal Challengers Bangalore suffered a big loss in the previous match against Sunrisers Hyderabad which has them fifth in the points table and very much in the playoffs range, but that can change quickly in the second half especially with their NRR getting a hit after the last defeat. Rajasthan Royals are the table toppers and have been carried by Jos Buttler who is in the form of his life. 

Here are 3 players you can avoid in your fantasy teams for the RCB vs RR game:

1. Riyan Parag

He has batted very low and has not got much of an opportunity to face a lot of balls. In the 7 matches so far he has scored 48 runs at an average of 9.6. His fantasy value gets further reduced as he is not being used with the ball nor is getting promoted so it is better to avoid him and look at other options.

2. Anuj Rawat

Apart from the one knock against Mumbai Indians he has been very disappointing this season and has managed only 129 runs in 8 matches at an average of 16 and a strike rate of 116. With plenty of other better options in the keeping section, it is better to ignore him in your fantasy teams for this match.

3. Mohammad Siraj

Mohammad Siraj has been decent in the previous few matches and has picked up 6 wickets in 8 matches this season but most of his wickets are with the new ball and he is not bowling at the death which reduces his wicket taking threat from a fantasy point of view. He will up against a quality top order of Rajasthan and might not get many wickets compared to other bowlers.
