Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) won the toss and opted to field first against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). However, there was a blunder from the broadcaster during the first over of the 18th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL).
Coming to the match, RCB had a solid start to their innings. Josh Hazlewood took his team off to a flying start with the ball as he removed Quinton de Kock (4) early on high to leave Kolkata Knight Riders at 4/1 inside the first over of the game.
The duo added 103 runs for the second wicket, but RCB then made a strong comeback and removed both the set batters. The onus was on middle-order batters and finishers to take Kolkata Knight Riders to the big total in the match but that wasn't the case as RCB pulled back things brilliantly to restrict the hosts to 174 runs.
Virat Kohli will be extremely important for the RCB in the ongoing game
With batting looking difficult, this makes Virat Kohli extremely important for the RCB in the ongoing game. The premier batter will be opening the innings for his side along with Phil Salt and the start given by him will be crucial.
