Bangalore swept away Mumbai in style in their opening game thanks to brilliant knock by their stalwarts Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis. The team in search of their first IPL title will be eager to get some consistency early on in the campaign and hence their tie against Kolkata Knight Riders assumes significance. A second win could also see RCB top the points table considering their good net run rate at the moment. Opponents Kolkata on the other hand, were completely outplayed by Punjab and they are in dire need of a positive result at home. The team were poor last campaign and despite very early days in the league, they still seem to be a bit short of confidence. Kolkata Knight Riders versus Royal Challengers Bangalore will be telecasted on the Star Sports network and streamed on the Jio Cinema app from 7:30 pm IST. Jason Roy Record in T20: Stats and Records of Kolkata Knight Riders Latest Signing.

Jason Roy is still unavailable for KKR, which means Mandeep Singh and Rahmanullah Gurbaz will open the innings for the host.

Andre Russell is a crucial player in the lower order but the other batsmen need to create a base for him to shine.

Reece Topley’s shoulder injury is not looking good and has been ruled out of this game. David Wiley is likely to come in as his replacement. Virat Kohli has started the tournament on a fine note and if he gets going, he can single-handedly destroy opposition attacks. Wanindu Hasaranga and Josh Hazlewood are yet to join the team, which should add variety to their bowling unit. IPL 2023 Points Table Updated With Net Run Rate.
