Strengths :
Kolkata Knight Riders’ strength is the batting line up of Rahul Tripathi, Shubman Gill, Nitish Rana, Eoin Morgan, Dinesh Karthik and Andre Russell who all are match winners in this format and have played some good knocks in the tournament so far. In the bowling the addition of Lockie Ferguson has strengthened them and they also have depth in it and the likes of Varun Chakravarthy, Shivam Mavi have been good and Pat Cummis is also bowling well from last two-three matches.
On the other hand, Royal Challengers Bangalore’s strength is their batting line up of Aaron Finch, Devdutt Padikkal, Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers who have been wonderful so far and have produced some good knocks. In the bowling Chris Morris, Yuzvendra Chahal, Navdeep Saini, Washington Sundar and Isuru Udana have been good in a unit and once again their performance will decide the fate of this match.
Weaknesses :
Kolkata Knight Riders’ weakness is the poor form of some of their players like Nitish Rana and Andre Russell who haven’t played big innings yet and opener Shubman Gill is also struggling to score quick runs after power play and in bowling they’re missing second spinner and which can create problems for them in middle overs.
Royal Challengers Bangalore’s weakness is their middle order as after AB de Villiers’ they don’t have a strong batting and the likes of Washington Sundar, Gurkeerat Singh Mann and Chris Morris haven’t batted enough to get some batting rhythm. In bowling Navdeep Saini and Isuru Udana have been inconsistent with their line and lengths.

Here we are going to discuss about a few players from both sides who can be very good picks for KOL vs BLR Dream 11 Prediction teams
Virat Kohli : He has scored more than 300 runs in his last 6 innings and in the last two matches he couldn’t convert his 30/40s into big scores so this time he will look to post a big total on the board.

Chris Morris : He has been amazing since his come back and has taken 9 wickets in 4 matches so far and down the order he can smash some big shots so he is worth a pick.
