The two unbeaten sides will face each in Match 16 of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2026). Rajasthan Royals (RR) will be at loggerheads with the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) at Assam's Barsapara Stadium Guwahati on Friday. 

Under a new full-time skipper Riyan Parag, the Royals have won all their three games. After winning against CSK and Gujarat, they outsmarted the Mumbai Indians in a rain-shortened fixture. 

Batting first, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi and Yashasvi Jaiswal attacked the five-time champions from the word-go, before Parag also smacked a few. As they posted 150/3 in 11 overs, the bowlers restricted MI for 123/9 to win it by 27 runs. 

On the other hand, RCB have started the season from where they left last year. They opened the campaign with a win over SRH, before they invited CSK home to thrash them. Batting first, Tim David's herculean 70* off 25 balls took them to the highest total of the season - 250/3. Later, they defended it in style to win by 43 runs. 

As the two teams collide on Friday evening, we explore the head-to-head records from their previous IPL clashes.
