The IPL 2021 Match 10 between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Kolkata Knight Riders will go underway on April 18 at MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai. Virat Kohli’s Royal Challengers Bangalore will lock horns against dejected Kolkata. RCB are going through a golden period in the league as they won both of their games in the season so far, while on the other hand, KKR lost their last match to Mumbai Indians. The inclusions of new recruits have helped RCB this season as they are looking well balanced with Glenn Maxwell, Harshal Patel and others. KKR, on the other side, want their key players to fire to get back to winning ways.
The weather at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai is expected to be hot and humid. The spinners will play a crucial role in the game and will be deciding factors for both teams. RCB have quality spinners in Yuzvendra Chahal, Shahbaz Ahmed and Washinton Sundar, while KKR have Shakib Al Hasan, Harbhajan Singh and Varun Chakravarthy.
