Big challenge in front of Nitish Rana
KKR appointed Nitish Rana as the caretaker captain. They were expecting their regular captain to return in the second leg but now that he has been ruled out of the tournament, the Chandrakant Pandit-coached side are also grappling with a leadership crisis. Rana has the experience of captaining Delhi in white-ball cricket and now faces a big challenge of getting his team back on the home ground. KKR will play their first match at Eden Gardens after 1438 days and it is expected that the franchise owner Shahrukh Khan will also be present during this time.

KKR will play at home after four years
KKR played their last match at their home ground before the COVID-19 pandemic on 28 April 2019, defeating Mumbai Indians by 34 runs. Both the teams will be brimming with excitement in this match as RCB team includes crowd favorite Virat Kohli. KKR’s batting has weakened in the absence of Iyer. The highlight of his innings in the last match against Punjab was the 50-run partnership between Andre Russell and Venkatesh Iyer. Afghanistan’s wicket-keeper batsman Rahmanullah Gurbaz’s flamboyant 22-run knock was also a positive for KKR but their mainstays in bowling, Tim Southee and Sunil Narine, have been a cause of concern for them.
RCB coming after beating Mumbai
Faf du Plessis and Virat Kohli will be put to the test for KKR’s attack. Kohli had scored an unbeaten 82 in the last match against Mumbai Indians in an eight-wicket win. RCB have a useful pace attack in the form of Mohammed Siraj, Harshal Patel and Akashdeep who can take advantage of the favorable conditions at Eden Gardens. They will, however, miss England fast bowler Reece Topley who has injured his shoulder. David Willey is likely to replace him in the playing XI.
