Player Picks
Virat Kohli RCB | BAT
The star Indian batter started the IPL 2023 campaign by smashing a match-winning knock of 82* off 49 with six fours and five sixes against Mumbai Indians in the last match. Kohli has been in excellent form across formats in international cricket and is looking in good rhythm ahead of the KKR game.
Faf du Plessis RCB | BAT
The veteran South African batter won the Player of the Match award against Mumbai Indians as he smashed 73 off 43 to give RCB a sensational start. He also smashed 369 from just 10 innings for Joburg Super Kings in SA20 2023 with one hundred and two fifties.
Mohammed Siraj RCB | BOWL
The star Indian pacer gave RCB an opening with Ishan Kishan's wicket against MI in the last game and conceded just 21 runs. Siraj enters the IPL 2023 with rich form in international cricket with five wickets in the recent ODIs against Australia.

Akash Deep
RCB | BOWL
The 26-year-old took a wicket while conceding runs at an economy rate of 9.7 against Mumbai Indians. He took just five wickets from five matches at an economy rate of 10.55 last year.
Anukul Roy
KKR | ALL
The young batting all-rounder scored four runs against Punjab Kings but didn't get a chance to bowl. Anukul Roy has shown a lot of potential across domestic cricket but lacks the experience of making a big impact.
