The Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) are set to play their first home game after their loss against the Punjab Kings in the opening match of IPL 2023. Despite putting up a valiant effort, KKR lost the game by a narrow margin of seven runs on the DLS method. Their batting performance has been a major concern for the team since the last season, and their defeat in the opening match has only added to their worries. KKR will be eager to bounce back and get their campaign on track with a win against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB).
In contrast, RCB had a flying start to their IPL 2023 campaign, thrashing Mumbai Indians by 8 wickets in their opening match. Virat Kohli, the former Indian skipper, played a match-winning knock of unbeaten 82 runs as Bangalore chased down the target with ease inside 17 overs. Kohli’s performance has sent a warning signal to the KKR management, as the ex-captain showed signs of ominous form that can prove to be a game-changer for RCB this season.
