RCB vs KKR Head to Head Records | Royal Challengers Bangalore vs Kolkata Knight Riders H2H Stats | IPL 2020 Match 28

RCB vs KKR Head to Head Records: The SportsRush presents for you the Head to Head statistics for the 28th match of IPL 2020.

The 28th match of the ongoing 13th season of the Indian Premier League will be played between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Kolkata Knight Riders in Sharjah tomorrow.

In the six matches that both the teams have played this season, they have won four and lost two to perform similarly so far. However, it is Knight Riders’ better net run rate which keeps them at the third position on the points table as compared to Royal Challengers’ fourth position.

What is highly likely to add fuel to fire between Kolkata and Bangalore’s clash is the short boundary of the Sharjah Cricket Stadium. The same reason has it in it for the match involving the likes of Andre Russell and AB de Villiers to be watched by cricket fans across the globe.
