Rajat Patidar was pulled up even though Jitesh Sharma was RCB's stand-in captain on Friday against SRH
"The good thing for RCB is that they will play the last game and they will know exactly where they stand and what they need to do," Anil Kumble says
Injuries to key players, departures of overseas players for national duty, and the break in momentum - they were playing a game after 20 days - contributed to RCB's nosedive against SRH
RCB are already in the IPL 2025 playoffs but will be without Lungi Ngidi for their final group game, and are also missing pace spearhead Josh Hazlewood
He hurt himself while fielding in the deep in the last over of SRH's innings
"I think we'll always be aggressive and always be positive but we'll always try to be smart as well," says assistant coach Simon Helmot of SRH's batting approach
Rajat Patidar was only fit to bat and was named on the substitutes' list
The late change has been necessitated due to a yellow alert issued by the meteorological department in Bengaluru
The latest he can link up with RCB is on May 26 in Lucknow, a day prior to their final league fixture against LSG
Abhishek, Klaasen, Aniket all played high-impact innings
They will be up against Sunrisers Hyderabad who are out of the playoffs race
