IPL head-to-head record between Kolkata Knight Riders and Royal Challengers Bengaluru

Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) are ready to play Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the 10th game of the 17th Indian Premier League (IPL) season at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium on Friday, March 30, after recording their first victory of the year.

Both sides enter the game with a winning mentality. However, in their prior match, RCB beat the Punjab Kings by a margin of four wickets. At Kolkata’s Eden Gardens, KKR defeated Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) by four runs in an exciting match that saw plenty of scoring.

The fact that the visiting teams have failed to win a single game this season should alarm the Kolkata Knight Riders. With the exception of Sunil Narine, all of KKR’s bowlers struggled to contain the SRH hitters throughout the last game, making their bowling seem desperate.

The most expensive purchase made at the IPL auction, Mitchell Starc, will be eager to orchestrate a comeback after giving up 53 runs in his first four overs.
