KKR vs RR Predicted Playing XI, Pitch Report, Match Prediction And Weather Forecast At Dubai
IPL 2020, KKR vs RR Weather Forecast: The weather will be perfectly clear in this match played at Dubai International Cricket Stadium. Along with this, dew will also play an important role here.
The 12th match of IPL 2020 will be played between Kolkata Knight Riders and Rajasthan Royals at Dubai International Cricket Stadium from 7:30 pm today. Kolkata Knight Riders had to face defeat in their last match while Rajasthan won their previous match in a blistering manner.
Rajasthan have won both their matches this season while Kolkata have got one win and one defeat so far. In this match, both teams would like to win to get some precious points to better their position in the points table.
If Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) are to keep their campaign on track in the Indian Premier League (IPL), they will have to show their best game against the in-form Rajasthan Royals.
In the last match, Rajasthan achieved a record target of 224 against Kings XI Punjab. The Royals have won both their matches and have easily crossed the 200-run mark in the process.
The contribution of Sanju Samson and Rahul Tewatia has been important in these successes, which have so far overshadowed the big names or star players.
Kolkata will face two big challenges in the form of Sunil Narine and Kuldeep Yadav. Veteran Narine has failed while batting in the top order as an opener in the last two matches, so now they need to find a new option for opener.
Rajasthan Royals played their last two matches in Sharjah, which is a much smaller ground than the other two venues. RR batsmen performed brilliantly on this ground, scoring 216 against Chennai and 226 against Punjab.
But now Rajasthan has to play in Dubai outside Sharjah where the boundary will be very big, in such a situation, players cannot rely on just power hitting.
