Read the article to know about RR Vs KKR Dream11 Prediction, Playing 11, Players List.
When top seamer Trent Boult was forced to sit out of the game against Gujarat Titans because of a strain, the Rajasthan Royals were in serious need of his skills. The expectation is that he will return in place of James Neesham for this match against the Kolkata Knight Riders. In place of Devdutt Paddikal, who was ejected for a golden duck in the last game, there is a potential that Yashasvi Jaiswal would be recalled to the starting eleven. However, the likelihood of this happening is relatively low.
When the Monday of Rajasthan Royals and Kolkata Knight Riders meet, both teams will be hungry to gain ground in the Indian Premier League 2022 points standings with a victory (April 18). Both RR and KKR have 6 points apiece, and they are now amid a mid-tournament stalemate, and they will need to go on a solid run to keep their dreams of making the playoffs alive.
