Hello and welcome to the live blog of the IPL 2019 clash between Kolkata Knight Riders and Royal Challengers Bangalore in Kolkata. First big news, KKR transpires because of the physical form of ANDRE RUSSELL.
KKR has lost its last three games and slipped to sixth place. The teams have progressed and KKR is likely to fall behind. Since the beginning of the season, KKR has had great victories, winning direct victories thanks to Russell. Although they had ruled out any risk of serious injury at this stage, his absence would likely increase the morale of the oppositions, who had to develop strategies to counter the Russell threat, given the brutality with which he demolished. That said, KKR has not yet played collectively as a team. Their bowling was a bit below normal. Their pacemen did not make an entrance at the beginning, while the spin-spider duo Piyush Chawla and Kuldeep Yadav did not give the expected results, as expected for a friendly Eden wicket.
RCB, on the other hand, has struggled from the start, scoring only one win after six trot losses. Although they are almost eliminated, KKR still has a chance, provided they win four of his remaining six matches – underscoring Russell's need more than ever.
