Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) lock horns on Wednesday in match 6 of IPL 2022 at the DY Patil Sports Academy. While KKR defeated defending champions CSK in their opening game, RCB went down fighting against Punjab Kings.
Meanwhile, RCB batting came good in the first match putting on 204 runs on the board; however, their bowling will be under the pump. The coaching panel will have to find out ways to restrict the free flow of runs in the final overs against a star-studded KKR batting unit.
On the other hand, KKR produced a complete effort with bat and ball to outpower the Chennai franchise. The two-time IPL winners will hope to continue the momentum and make it two out of two and take a lead in the points table.
