<h2>KKR Thrash RCB bowlers</h2>

Needing 183 runs to win the match, KKR openers Phil Salt (30) and Sunil Narine ((47) set the tone as they wreaked havoc with the bat. They scored 53 runs in the first four overs while also scoring 85 in the powerplay. They stitched 86 runs for the opening wicket before Narine was sent back to the pavilion. Later Venkatesh Iyer (50) and Shreyas Iyer (unbeaten 39) helped their team to get over the line with complete ease.

<h2>What happened in RCB’s innings</h2>

Batting first, RCB captain Faf du Plessis had another off day after being dismissed for 8. However, his partner Virat Kohli was the hero of the match for the home side. Virat scored an unbeaten 83 which consisted of 4 sixes and 4 fours. Cameron Green also contributed to a well-made 33 while countryman Glenn Maxwell scored 28. Dinesh Karthik was also seen playing a cameo knock by scoring&nbsp;20 off 8 to take RCB to 182/6 in their 20 overs.

IPL 2024: KKR end away wins jinx in RCB's backyard with emphatic seven-wicket victory in Bengaluru

In the first episode of the third season of the&nbsp;Peaky Blinders, the protagonist gangster Thomas Shelby (played by Cillian Murphy) gathers all the men in his family in the kitchen just before his wedding. Fervently smoking a cigarette with a red face, he stands in the centre of their circle and tells them all the things they shouldn’t do to prevent him being embarrassed.

&nbsp;“But the main thing is… despite the provocation from the cavalry, no fighting,” he says, before going around in the circle and pointing to each face and repeating “no fighting” with increasing volume. When he’s done, a waiter carrying a drink just clips him on the back and he throws him on the ground, hurling furious expletives with the cigarette still in his mouth.

It’s pure cinema. An intense scene of an intense drama that you can’t help but watch and laugh at. And you’d feel something similar would be going on in the dressing rooms of the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium on Friday, ahead of their high-octane clash in IPL 2024.

It’s tournament’s oldest rivalry beginning at the same ground in 2008, also kicking off the behemoth that is the IPL. It’s mostly known for the captains’ Gautam Gambhir and Virat Kohli coming together after the latter’s wicket and a lot of sledging (at the same venue, again), only to be separated by another Delhi boy, Rajat Bhatia.

There's been a lot of bad blood between the teams since, but not many remember who won the game that day. KKR scored 154/8 in the first innings, but who’d remember that it all started with Gambhir’s war-of-words with Moises Henriques in the first innings, after which a charged-up Kohli missed four run-out chances, two of them difficult but two regulation ones?

The score was clearly under-par for a batting delight of a track, but the second innings was always going to be decided by emotions. KKR allowed Chris Gayle to get away with too many short balls, and he won the game single-handedly. But what went on at the other end was telling: before getting out, Kohli played out a maiden over, and AB de Villiers continued that serene momentum with a run-a-ball 22 deprived of any risks whatsoever.

The message would have certainly been sent out by the coach Ray Jennings to control the emotions and with it, the tempo of the innings. When it’s two of the most emotion-fuelled franchises in the tournament, with massive fanbases in front of perhaps the most partisan and loving crowd in the competition, the most important thing is to not get carried away.

Kohli has gained more love of late for putting up a calmer figure, but it’s been less than a year since his second altercation with Gambhir, who was the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG)’s mentor at the time. That happened after the match was done, and the now-KKR mentor jumped in between a players’ issue. But again, it was RCB that came out victorious.

Friday is again set up similarly. KKR are unbeaten in the last five matches at Chinnaswamy thanks to a calming aura and tactical superiority. But home sides are yet to lose in IPL 2024.

Both teams are coming off thrilling last-over wins, and you don’t want to give up momentum after such games. Both teams have characters who can spark fire any time — Nitish Rana, Harshit Rana, Alzaari Joseph, Mohammed Siraj, Mitchell Starc apart from Kohli and Gambhir — playing in front of a crowd that has tasted the sweet blood of wins.

It’s going to be neck-and-neck and on the face. Whichever team’s players can bring out their inner Rajat Bhatia and let the tactics do the talking, would have the upper hand.

'No fighting' is key as IPL’s oldest rivalry between RCB and KKR reignites at M. Chinnaswamy

Game 10 in IPL 2024 is a marquee tie between Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Kolkata Knight Riders at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium on Friday (March 29). The top-of-the-line clash in this competition promises more than just an exciting cricketing battle, with some fearless players gracing the field today. Given Bengaluru will host this crucial tie, expect the flow of runs throughout. Here is the match preview and result prediction of the RCB vs KKR tie in IPL 2024.

<h2>Match Preview&nbsp;</h2>

The hosts will aim to bag two crucial points and get things going in this season of the Indian Premier League. While Cameron Green's inclusion will boost their confidence against a spin-heavy KKR bowling attack, Dinesh Karthik’s form is a bonus for the home side lower down the order.&nbsp;

With a lot to look forward to following their previous home win against PBKS, RCB will bank on their pace attack to deliver against their old foes. While Mohammed Siraj and Alzarri Joseph would like to use their pace to their advantage, Yash Dayal’s opening spell will determine RCB’s fate.

However, the only department where they could face some trouble is the spin attack, which includes a lesser-experienced Mayank Dagar and all-rounder Glenn Maxwell.

On the other hand, the travelling KKR team are oozing with confidence following a win in their season-opener against SRH at home. Though the top order failed in their previous game, dangerous Andre Russell hogged all the limelight with his power-hitting, also returning with two wickets in the second innings.

Rinku Singh’s numbers from the last season (striking at 273.1 in overs 19 and 20 in all T20s since 2023) and Sunil Narine’s overall record against Virat Kohli and RCB Captain Faf du Plessis (Narine has dismissed both Virat (106 off 106, 4 dismissals) and Faf (37 off 47, 1 dismissal) are worth looking at.&nbsp;

Moreover, Mitchell Starc’s exploits in this crucial game will hold the key for Kolkata.&nbsp;

<h3>Toss and Head to Head record -</h3>

Kolkata leads Bengaluru 18-14 in the head-to-head record in IPL.&nbsp;

Coming down to the toss, any captain would like to chase at this venue, given its rich history of hunting targets.

<h3>Result Prediction -</h3>

Bengaluru would like to make the most of the home advantage, but the touring KKR side will walk in as favourites to win this clash.

Predicted Playing XIs of both teams -

RCB - Virat Kohli, Faf du Plessis (c), Cameron Green, Rajat Patidar, Glenn Maxwell, Anuj Rawat (wk), Dinesh Karthik, Alzarri Joseph, Mayank Dagar, Mohammed Siraj and Yash Dayal
