Team Analysis:
Kolkata Knight Riders
Under Nitish Rana, the two-time IPL champs haven't had an ideal start to their 2023 IPL campaign. KKR underperformed in each department and will want to improve against Bangalore. The fast bowlers went on to concede a lot of runs while the spinners were positive for the side. While the batting unit had a poor performance and must improve at Eden Gardens.
