Rajasthan Royals vs Kolkata Knight Riders Team Previews

Rajasthan Royals

Rajasthan Royals have a strong batting lineup with destructive players playing right from the top order. Yashasvi Jaiswal and Sanju Samson are the back-bone of this team. They will need support from other batters around them just like Druv Jurel and Shimron Hetmyer did in the last match where Jaiswal was flopped. 

However their bowling is not their strong point unlike last year, they let go off Trent Boult, Chahal and Ashwin from their team and picked up Tushar Deshpande, Jofra Archer, and Maheesh Theekshana who are less effective. 

After a tough loss against Sunrisers Hyderabad, Rajasthan will look to make a comeback in this match against KKR.

Kolkata Knight Riders

Kolkata Knight Riders, the title defenders were completely out of form in the last match against RCB and lost that match one sided. They have young players and veteran stars like captain Ajinkya Rahane, Sunil Narine, and Andre Russell in the team. They lacked in because of less firepower in their middle order led by Russell and Rinku Singh. 

Bowling is also a big concern for KKR, as they struggled to defend their total in the previous game. Varun Chakravarthy and Sunil Narine will play a crucial role in sustaining runs. KKR needs to rectify their problems and errors before the first half of the season or else they will not be able to defend their title.
