KKR vs RCB Dream11: KKR aiming to get back on winning ways against resurgent RCB
KKR will be playing at Eden Gardens after nearly four years. The team has a good record at Eden Gardens and would be keen to continue with that form. For that to work, the big guns like Andre Russell and Nitish Rana have to step up. Batting is slightly on the weaker side with the absence of Shreyas Iyer. The top order failed against PBKS, and skipper Rana would be hoping the batters come good against resurgent RCB.
The Faf du Plessis-led had a terrific start against MI, with batting and bowling firing in unison. The biggest takeaway from the game was Virat Kohli’s fluency at the top. The right-hand batter seemed in the zone right from ball one. Bowling also looked superb, with Mohammed Siraj, Reece Topley, and Karn Sharma bowling well. However, Topley would miss the second game due to a shoulder injury. David Willey will likely replace him in the playing XI.
