We are finally into the stage of the competition that the return legs come into the picture. Next up in the Vivo IPL 2021 is a fascinating contest between the Kolkata Knight Riders and the Royal Challengers Bangalore. In the last match between the two sides, RCB won by 38 runs.
KKR haven’t hit their top form yet and have two wins in seven games. Although they have some of the biggest names in world cricket, they have failed to click as a unit. We can expect some changes in the playing XI.
On the other hand, we have RCB who have five wins in seven games and look comfortable for a top four finish. Death bowling has been a major cause of concern for them in the recent matches. Their batting has been pretty impressive until now but more is definitely expected out of Virat Kohli.
