RR vs KXIP Dream11 IPL Match Prediction :
Rajasthan Royals put up a good show with bat in the first match against Super Kings. Captain Smith and Sanju Samson got fifties and they will have to continue their good form and now they have Jos Buttler too who can do a lot of damage in the opening and the top four of Royals have to score big runs so the fragile lower order don’t have much work to do. In the bowling as usual Jofra Archer and Shreyas Gopal will lead and in the first match Rahul Tewatia impressed with a three wickets haul so his good form is a good sign for them and they will hope that Tom Curran and Unadkat too will do well in this match.
On the other hand, Kings XI Punjab who is mainly relying on KL Rahul in batting will be hoping that their other batsmen like Glenn Maxwell, Nicholas Pooran, Karun Nair and Sarfraz Khan will support their captain and in the bowling inform duo of Sheldon Cottrell and Mohammad Shami have to continue to pick up wickets upfront and in the middle overs Ravi Bishnoi will be the key as these three bowlers have done in the last two matches.
