IPL 2020 LIVE Streaming RCB vs KKR: When and where to watch Dream11 IPL on Disney + Hotstar and broadcast timings in India and UAE – Firstcricket News, Firstpost
Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) will hope to maintain their winning momentum when they meet each other at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium on Monday.
KKR and RCB moved to the third and fourth spots respectively after registering contrasting victories in their respective matches in the Saturday double-header. Kolkata were well on their way to suffering a massive defeat at the hands of Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) when a couple of wickets in the middle overs led to a dramatic turnaround, with Punjab falling just two runs short of the KKR total of 164/6 despite a century opening stand.
RCB, on the other hand, were comprehensive against the struggling Chennai Super Kings (CSK) as skipper Virat Kohli led from the front, blasting an unbeaten 90 before the bowlers, led by franchise debutant Chris Morris (3/19) and Washington Sundar (2/16), kept MS Dhoni and Co under check. Bangalore walked away with a healthy 37-run victory — only their second victory against their southern rivals in nine games and their fourth in six this season.
Heading into the 28th match of IPL 2020 — which will mark the halfway stage of the league phase this year — Kolkata certainly have more to worry as far as their players are concerned, with veteran off-spinner Sunil Narine having been reported for suspect action following the KXIP-KKR clash as well as Jamaican superstar Andre Russell’s hot-and-cold run with the bat this season.
While Narine continues to impress with his pinch-hitting abilities this season — initially at the top of the order before being used as a floater down the order to accommodate Rahul Tripathi at the top — he played a key role in his team’s victories in their last two outings by drying up the runs in the middle and the slog overs.
Should he be reported again, Narine faces a bowling ban that could come as a body blow to Dinesh Karthik’s plans as the two-time champions look to reduce the gap between them and Delhi Capitals and Mumbai Indians — the top two on the points table at the moment.
