Rajasthan Royals are still recovering from their defeat at the hands of Gujarat Titans. The team will be looking to get back to winning ways when they encounter Kolkata Knight Riders.
Including the last game, the Royals have been defeated two times in this edition of IPL. In the last match, RR failed to chase 193 runs down against Hardik Pandya-led Gujarat Titans. While they lost the match by 37 runs, Jos Buttler’s good form should provide them some consolation. After starting the season with a couple of wins, Sanju Samson will try to bring the consistency back to his side.
Kolkata Knight Riders have their own share of woes. Their batting unit, with the exception of Andre Russell and Nitish Rana, has failed to fire. They managed to put up a challenging score though of 175 runs. However, SRH’s Rahul Tripathi and Aiden Markram finished the chase with 13 balls to spare. The Knight Riders are still finding their winning combination under their new leader Shreyas Iyer.
