Preview:-
Royal Challengers Bangalore will take on Kolkata Knight Riders in the sixth match of IPL 2022 on Tuesday. KKR got off to a perfect start one could get, as they brushed past Chennai Super Kings in the opening fixture. The bowlers set up the victory as they restricted the opposition to 131, and in reply, the batters did not panic at any moment as they cruised through the chase. On the other hand, RCB lost a thrilling match against the Punjab Kings where they could not defend a target of 205. The bowlers need to pull up their socks as they will be facing another stiff task against Kolkata at the same venue.

RCB vs KKR, Match 6 Pitch Report:
Traditionally, this venue hasn’t been a very high-scoring one because of the long boundaries. A fair amount of grass on the pitch won’t help the spinners much. It also looks hard, so it should be good to bat on with good carry. The par score would be around 165. The trend has been to chase here and the previous match saw more than 200 being chased.
