KOL vs RCB Dream11 Prediction: Kolkata Knight Riders vs Royal Challengers Bangalore Match Preview
Kolkata Knight Riders had a poor start to the campaign as they lost their first game against the Punjab Kings by 7 runs (DLS Method). Their batting is looking very fragile while the bowlers are not giving confidence either. KKR are heavily dependent on their overseas players, especially Andre Russell to win games for them. The likes of Nitish Rana, Rinku Singh, Rahmanullah Gurbaz and others need to be consistent as well. The Impact Player rule is a great thing for them if they use it properly. Kolkata will look to win this game and register their first win of IPL 2023.
Royal Challengers Bangalore, on the other hand, won their first game against the Mumbai Indians by 8 wickets. Faf du Plessis (73 runs) and Virat Kohli (83* runs) almost took the side home on their own after a stellar performance from the bowling unit. RCB is looking very balanced, especially with Glenn Maxwell and Michael Bracewell being there as the all-rounders. Reece Topley got injured in the last game but they have David Willey in their ranks. Bangalore will be very confident coming into this game and they’ll look to continue their winning momentum.

The pitch at Eden Gardens is a good one for batting. The pitch is flat and the ball will come onto the bat nicely. There will be some movement with the new ball for the pacers and the spinners will be in the game as well. The average first innings score here is 179 runs and chasing sides have won 52% of the games played here.
It will be a clear day with no chance of rain.
