Confident after an impressive victory against Mumbai Indians in their first match, where Virat, along with RCB captain Du Plessis, smashed a 148-run partnership, RCB are keen to replicate the same performance against KKR. The Knights, on the other hand, will be looking for their first win after losing by 7 runs to Punjab Kings, thanks to the DLS rule.
