IPL 2025: Top 3 batters to watch out from KKR vs RCB clash

The Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) will clash against the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the first game of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 set to take place on March 22, 2025. The game will be at the Eden Garden, Kolkata. Interestingly, both teams will play under two new captains this season. So, the contest will be double the fun that it was last season. RCB have some quality bowlers in the likes of Bhuvneshwar Kumar, and Josh Hazlewood while KKR have Sunil Narine and Varun Chakaravarthy, who should be enough for the entire team. But in this article, we will discuss the batters of the team. 

Here are the top three batters to watch out for from KKR vs RCB clash:

1. Virat Kohli

Virat Kohli is the highest run-scorer of the IPL, and there is a high chance that he will play well in the clash against KKR. They have some good bowlers but Kohli is in terrific form and will try to go after the bowlers from the very first ball. He will open the innings and that is the main reason why he can be a threat to the KKR team. 

2. Venkatesh Iyer

KKR’s Venkatesh Iyer might also have a good chance of scoring runs in the first game. He is a fearless batter and KKR management have shown confidence in him by buying him at a whopping amount. So, Iyer will surely try to do justice to his IPL price. 

3. Phil Salt

RCB’s Phil Salt is the third player who can be a top performer in the first game. The player’s performance in the previous season was absolutely brilliant. Well, he was with the KKR last year and he will play his first match against them this year which should make the contest fun and interesting at the same time.
