RR vs KKR 70th Match Preview
The 70th match of the IPL 2024 promises to be a fiery encounter between the Rajasthan Royals (RR) and the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) on May 19th. Both teams come into this match with contrasting fortunes.
Last Match Summary:
- Rajasthan Royals: RR’s batting woes continued in their previous match against Punjab Kings (PBKS). They could only manage a below-par 144/9 on a sluggish Barsapara Stadium pitch. Despite some good bowling spells, PBKS chased down the target comfortably with 7 balls to spare.
- Kolkata Knight Riders: On the other hand, KKR are on a roll. They outclassed Delhi Capitals in their last outing, with all-round brilliance from the likes of Sunil Narine, Andre Russell, and Venkatesh Iyer. Their bowling attack, spearheaded by Varun Chakravarthy and the pace duo of Harshit Rana and Vaibhav Arora, has been exceptional.
Head-to-Head in IPL 2024:
This will be the first meeting between RR and KKR in IPL 2024. Their head-to-head record across the IPL seasons is quite even, with both teams having won 12 matches each in their 24 encounters.
Key Players to Watch:
- Rajasthan Royals: Trent Boult: The experienced Kiwi pacer will be crucial for RR with his ability to swing the new ball and take early wickets. Jos Buttler: The explosive English batsman needs to find his form to provide a strong start for RR.
- Kolkata Knight Riders: Sunil Narine: Narine has been a revelation with the bat this season. His all-around abilities with the ball make him a vital cog in the KKR machine. Andre Russell: The Jamaican powerhouse can single-handedly change the course of the game with his power hitting and aggressive bowling.
RR vs KKR Pitch Report
