RCB Vs KKR Match Prediction: Who Will Win IPL Match Today, Dream11 Team, Playing XI & More
Royal Challengers Bangalore will be looking to revenge down Kolkata Knight Riders in match 36 of IPL 2023 as both the teams take on each other in their second clash of the tournament. The Faf du Plessis-led team will be looking to continue their winning momentum against Nitish Rana’s Knight Riders by winning the RCB vs KKR IPL 2023 match. Kolkata also will be looking to get back to winning ways and break their losing streak.
Royal Challengers Bangalore has been playing under former captain Virat Kohli as Faf du Plessis has only been opening the innings for his team and has not come out to the field. The RCB middle order till now has not been able to perform till now as per the expectations and the team has failed to reach big scores in the previous despite being given a balanced and explosive start from the top. The bowling however looks settled but the team looks pretty much dependent on Mohammed Siraj.
Kolkata Knight Riders on the other hand have a lot to worry about as they already are coming off from defeats in four back-to-back matches and will look to end the streak in the clash against RCB. The Knight Riders batting line has a lot of issues and the biggest of them is the opening pair. Other batsmen except for Nitish Rana, Rinku Singh, and Venkatesh Iyer have failed to score till now in the tournament and the team will hope for a better batting performance from their team. Bowling has looked out of color for a long time but spinners like Varun Chakravarthy, Suyash Sharma, and Sunil Narine have very well been able to control the opposition batsmen.
