RCB, who suffered a loss to CSK in the season opener, came back with a roaring win in their second game against Punjab Kings at home and opened their account in the points table. Star batter Virat Kohli played a match-winning knock of 77 runs to guide his team to victory. Dinesh Karthik's quick-fire unbeaten knock of 28 runs off 10 balls sealed the game for the Bengaluru-based franchise.
Meanwhile, KKR, coming off a narrow win in their season opener against Sunrisers Hyderabad, aim to maintain their momentum and strengthen their position early in the mega event. Strong West Indian all-rounder Andre Russell reminded everyone why he is one of the most dangerous T20 batters in the world with his brilliant 64-run knock. Young HarshitRana held his nerve till the very last and bowled a brilliant final over to win the game for his team by four runs.

Pitch report
The M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru is famous for its batting-friendly pitch, which typically produces high-scoring clashes. Due to the short boundaries and lightning-fast outfield, no target seems out of reach for the batting team, allowing them to easily chase down seemingly daunting totals. However, teams batting first should aim to post a formidable score, preferably well over 200 runs, to remain competitive in the match, as the surface tends to favor the batters heavily.
