Analysis:
Both Kolkata and Bangalore boast incredibly talented players who have played well in the first match. But for both teams, a lot of their batting has not been tested to the fullest. For Bangalore, the biggest positive was Virat Kohli finding some form alongside captain Faf du Plessis, who scored 88 of 51 balls. Whereas in the Kolkata team, captain Shreyas Iyer, Ventakesh Iyer and Nitish Rana could score big runs if given the opportunity. In the bowling department, Kolkata’s Sunil Narine and Varun Chakravarthy have looked great while Bangalore bowlers like Mohammed Siraj and Harshal Patel struggled against Punjab.
