Kolkata Knight Riders vs Royal Challengers Bangalore teams are going to fight in the 9th match on Thursday, April 6 at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata. Nitish Rana-led KKR team is hoping for their first win after 3 years at their home ground, Eden Gardens. Both the teams played one match each in this tournament, in which RCB defeated the 5-time champions Mumbai Indians by 7 wickets. KKR lost their first match against Punjab Kings by 7 runs. Thus, KKR is on the verge of defeating RCB who are on a winning streak at home.
But before the start of the match, the injuries of the players caused a setback for both the teams. KKR's permanent captain Shreyas Iyer has been ruled out of the entire tournament due to a back injury. Due to this, Nitish Rana will lead the Men in Purple team. Also, the team's star all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan has also withdrawn from the IPL this time. Therefore, KKR team has brought England's star opener Jason Roy to replace Shakib. The injury problem of the players has increased in the RCB camp as well, and it is doubtful that the pacer Reece Topley, who was injured in the first match, will play. Also, the team's star batsman Rajat Patidar is out of the entire tournament. So it will be interesting to see which playing eleven the two teams will field.
Shreyas Iyer was not only out of the IPL but also out of the WTC final..!
