RCB vs KKR : Pitch Report:

The batting surface at Chinnaswamy Stadium is excellent, and we’ve already seen some high-scoring games this season. In IPL 2023, the average batting first score is 195.8, while the average winning batting first score is 200.

RCB vs KKR : Weather Report:

The weather will likely continue gloomy, with a risk of light rain. The pitch has not been typical of a Bangalore track, as batsmen have struggled to timing the ball. It will most likely help the bowlers get started. The team batting first would aim for a total of roughly 180 runs.

SRH vs DC CricAdvisor Predictions:

The Kolkata Knight Riders are in horrible form and need more confidence. Their starting lineup has been uneven, and bowlers still need to implement their strategies. The Royal Challengers Bangalore’s two most crucial players are in excellent form. They play at home and will have the support of the crowd.
