IPL 2022, RR vs KKR: Preview, stats, and Fantasy XI

Rajasthan Royals (RR) eye the second spot in the standings as they take on the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the 30th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022. Both RR and KKR have won three games each. Recently, RR registered a 37-run loss to GT. Meanwhile, KKR are on a two-match losing streak, having surrendered to DC and SRH. Here's the preview.

Detals
Pitch report, timing, and TV listing

Brabourne has hosted seven matches this season. The chasing side has mustered a win on four occasions. The wicket has been a batter's paradise, boasting an average first innings total in excess of 190. The match between RR and KKR can be watched live on Star Sports Network (7:30 PM IST). It can be live streamed on the Disney+Hotstar app (paid subscription).

KKR
KKR's inconsistency biting them hard

Kolkata Knight Riders have failed as a unit in the last two outings. The issue isn't competence, it's their inability to click at crunch moments of late. Nitish Rana, Shreyas Iyer, and Andre Russell have been consistent with the willow. But, other batters have to step up. Bowling has been off-color as well. Pacer Umesh Yadav could be a vital cog in this fixture.

A look at the head-to-head record

Both teams have faced each other on 25 occasions in IPL (including one abandoned fixture). KKR have won on 13 occasions, with RR winning on 11 instances. Since 2020, KKR enjoy a 3-1 record in wins over RR.

RR
Royals lay a competent attack on offer

Rajasthan Royals are a team to beat this season. In spite of their recent defeat to GT, RR boast a competent attack that has showcased their credibility this season. Batting-wise, Jos Buttler and Shimron Hetmyer have posted sensational tallies this season. Bowling-wise, the onus would be on Yuzvendra Chahal and possibly Trent Boult, if the latter is fit to play in this fixture.
