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.
Andre Russell KKR | ALL
The Caribbean batting all-rounder was the leading wicket-taker for KKR last season but didn't bowl against Punjab Kings in the last match. He top-scored with 35 off 19 while batting and should be in the Dream11 Team at any cost.
Venkatesh Iyer KKR | ALL
The young all-rounder came as an impact player and added a crucial 34 off 28 against Punjab Kings in the last game. He is likely to get a start in the playing 11 for this game and might even bowl.
Glenn Maxwell RCB | ALL
The Australian batting all-rounder didn't get much time against Mumbai Indians in the last game but he smashed two sixes off three balls to give some glimpses of his returning to form.
Rahmanullah Gurbaz KKR | WK
The star Afghanistan wicketkeeper-batter started well against Punjab Kings by smashing 22 off 16 but was not able to convert it into a big knock. Gurbaz has scored 110 runs from his last five overall T20 innings and costs only 7.5 credits on the Dream11 Team.
Michael Bracewell RCB | BAT
New Zealand spin all-rounder didn't get a chance to showcase his batting skills against Mumbai Indians in the last game but shone with the ball with Suryakumar Yadav's wicket while conceding just 16 runs from his two-over spell.
Karn Sharma RCB | BOWL
The 35-year-old spinner was the best bowler for Royal Challengers Bangalore against Mumbai Indians as he took two crucial wickets for 32.

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.
