The IPL 2024 match between Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) will be played on Friday at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. Both RCB and KKR have won their previous matches, but RCB always has the advantage of playing on home ground, so it will try to maintain the winning streak. However, RCB will face tough competition in the match from KKR who also has a better batting attack.
RCB will again have hope from Kohli
His team will once again have hopes for Virat Kohli, the batsman who scored the most runs in the IPL. Former RCB captain Kohli had scored a half-century in the last match, based on which the team was successful in achieving the target. Kohli also can build partnerships. He has been involved in partnerships of 150 or more runs seven times in the IPL. The pair of Kohli and captain Faf Duplessis is also a big hit in the IPL and the challenge for KKR bowlers will be to stop this opening pair of RCB.
KKR has a better record against right-handed batsmen
In the last match against Punjab Kings, all the top six batsmen of RCB were right-handed. Except for Suyyash Sharma, other KKR bowlers like to bowl against right-handed batsmen. Other KKR bowlers have had good economy rates against right-handed batsmen. The economy rate of Andre Russell 8.9, Mitchell Starc 7.3, Harshit Rana 8.4, Sunil Narine 6.5, and Varun Chakravarthy 7.5 show how their performance has been against right-handed batsmen. KKR have a good bowling attack and if they perform well as a team, they can cause trouble to the RCB batsmen.
RCB bowlers will have to perform better
For RCB, fast bowlers Mohammed Siraj and Yash Dayal bowled well against Punjab Kings, but other bowlers will also have to perform better. Fast bowler Alzarri Joseph gave 38 runs in the first match and did not get any wickets, while in the second match, he took one wicket for 43 runs. In such a situation, the RCB team can give a chance to England fast bowler Reece Topley in the playing eleven against KKR.
KKR batsmen will have to show strength
Like other teams, KKR also has powerful batsmen who can destroy any bowling attack. However, KKR's top batting order faltered against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Captain Shreyas Iyer also proved to be a flop. Rinku Singh and Andre Russell in the middle order played explosive innings in the last match and took the team's score beyond 200, due to which KKR made a winning start in the tournament by defeating Hyderabad by four runs.
Runs will rain in Chinnaswamy
The flat pitch of M Chinnaswamy is considered suitable for the batsmen. In the last match between RCB and Punjab Kings, the pitch here looked a little different from the traditional one, which Kohli himself had mentioned after the match. However, in the match between KKR and RCB, it is expected that fans will be seen cheering for Chinnaswamy. RCB's batting attack is very strong and the team has an experienced match finisher in the form of Dinesh Karthik who can turn the tables at any time with his batting. Karthik demonstrated his ability in the last match and he got good support from Mahipal Lomror during this period.
Weather will remain clear in Bangalore
Rain will not be able to create any hindrance in this match between RCB and KKR as the weather is expected to be clear on Friday. During this period the temperature will be 22 to 36 degrees Celsius. Talking about the pitch, it will be helpful for the batsmen and the short boundary here will give additional help to the batsmen.
Let us know what the possibility of playing 11 of both the teams for this match.
RCB: Faf du Plessis (captain), Virat Kohli, Dinesh Karthik, Akash Deep, Lockie Ferguson, Mohammed Siraj, Swapnil Singh, Glenn Maxwell, Rajat Patidar, Will Jacques, Cameron Green.
KKR: Phil Salt, Venkatesh Iyer, Ramandeep Singh, Sunil Narine, Mitchell Starc, Aaron Varun, Harshit Rana, Shreyas Iyer (captain), Nitish Rana, Rinku Singh, Andre Russell.
