Match Preview
In the 10th fixture of the ongoing Indian Premier League, Royal Challengers Bengaluru are set to host Kolkata Knight Riders at home, M. Chinnaswamy Stadium. The match is slated to take place on March 29, Friday at 7:30 pm. Bengaluru started the season with a defeat from reigning champions Chennai Super Kings. However, it didn’t take time for the Faf du Plessis’ lads to make a comeback as they clinched a four-wicket win over Punjab Kings.
Kolkata Knight Riders opened their campaign against SunRisers Hyderabad and clinched a four-run win over SunRisers Hyderabad in their season opener. Both teams will aim to continue their winning momentum and add more wins to their accounts.
Toss Prediction
Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Kolkata Knight Riders have faced each other 32 times in the Indian Premier League thus far. In their previous five matches, the RCB skipper won all the tosses, and luck clearly didn’t back Kolkata in any of those matches. In their last two matches of the season as well, RCB skipper Faf du Plessis won the tosses over CSK captain Ruturaj Gaikwad and Punjab captain Shikhar Dhawan. Considering this, we can say that luck has been in favour of Faf du Plessis and he would continue his toss-winning run in the next matches as well.
Win Possibility
As mentioned, RCB and KKR have faced each other in 32 matches in the Indian Premier League, out of those formers emerged victorious in 14 matches and Knight Riders won 18 games. Bengaluru finished in sixth position in the last edition whereas KKR finished the season at seventh spot. Both sides displayed decent games in their previous fixtures in IPL 2024. While the Bengaluru squad has more all-rounders, KKR have a batting-dominated side. Kolkata have won the coveted title twice whereas RCB are still trophy-less, and the Du Plessis-led side will aim to repeat their WPL squad’s heroics and win their first trophy.
Coming back to the next match, RCB have been lethal this season, and considering their form this season, it wouldn’t be wrong to say that they will have an upper hand over their counterparts in the next game, and they are likely to win the game over their rivals.
Predicted Powerplay Score and Average First Inning Score
The M. Chinnaswamy Stadium hosted its first match of the season on March 25, Monday, as the home favourites hosted Punjab Kings. In the previous seasons of the tournament, the venue hosted a total of 88 games and had the first innings score of 172. For the upcoming match, we can expect the first-inning score to be around 175-185 and the powerplay score to be around 55-60.
