It’s the bowling department which is a concern for both KKR and SRH. A target of over 220 is a challenging total for any team, regardless of the pitch and the batting lineup, but MI did not break a sweat while chasing down the total against KKR’s bowling lineup. Similarly for SRH, RCB needed just 15.4 overs to chase down 201.
Batting wise, almost all of KKR’s batters fired but for SRH, captain Ishan Kishan and Aniket Verma did the bulk of the run-scoring and will be looking for more support, especially from the opening pair of ‘Travishek’, come the match at Eden Gardens.
KKR and SRH faced off against each other twice in the previous season, with SRH winning the first encounter by 110 runs and KKR coming out on top in the reverse fixture by 80 runs.
