IPL 2020, KKR vs RR Toss Update: Rajasthan Royals Win Toss, Opt To Bowl Against Kolkata Knight Riders.

Kolkata Knight Right riders will face Rajasthan Royals in a do-or-die clash tonight. This match is a do or die battle for both teams. A defeat would mean almost a way out of the tournament for both teams. In such a situation, both teams will give their best to win today.

A win for Rajasthan will not assure them spot in the IPL Playoffs. Rather, their chances to make it to the playoffs will also depend on the results of other teams. Ben Stokes is in great form for Rajasthan. While Sanju Samson, who scored runs in the opening matches, has also come back to the rhythm.

On the other hand, Kolkata has been implicated by bad net run-rate (KKR Net Runrate -0.467). Even for them a win will not ensure a spot in the playoffs. KKR will hope that the rest of the teams do not reach 14 points and if they do, they don't have a better run-rate.

The last encounter of the two teams took place on 30 September. Where KKR won by 37 runs. Four batsmen of the top order of Rajasthan team got out cheaply while chasing the target of 175 runs. Shivam Mavi and Kamlesh Nagarkoti bowled brilliantly.
