Kolkata, May 15 at 08:00 PM IST
Tuesday’s IPL fixture is pivotal in relation to the playoffs. Rajasthan Royals’ late charge has re-ignited their playoffs hopes while Kolkata Knight Riders are also hopeful of getting there.
Kolkata Knight Riders came back stronger after 102-run defeat to Mumbai by beating Kings XI Punjab convincingly on Saturday, also posting the biggest total of IPL 2018 in the process. With two round-robin games left, they cannot afford to slip anymore.
Rajasthan Royal have registered three back-to-back wins to revive their prowess, courtesy Jos Buttler’s rich vein of form. RR would want the English wicketkeeper-batsman to produce another match-winning performance here.
