Kolkata Knight Riders are locking horns with Royal Challengers Bangalore in the ninth match of the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League at Eden Gardens, Kolkata.
Earlier, KKR started their IPL 2023 campaign with a defeat over Punjab Kings. The Mohali-based franchise won the game by seven runs (DLS Method) to open their account. KKR are yet to open their account with a win and will be looking to produce the spark in the ongoing home game against RCB.
On the other side of the coin, Royal Challengers Bangalore kick-started their IPL 2023 opener with a win over five-time IPL champions, Mumbai Indians. Faf du Plessis and Co beat Rohit Sharma and Co by five wickets with four balls to spare.
