Here are the 5 key players to watch out for in this match:
Virat Kohli (RCB)
The RCB skipper announced last night that he would be stepping down as captain after this season of IPL. So he will definitely want to finish this tournament on a high, and will be crucial to his team’s success.
Andre Russell (KKR)
Dre Russ, as he’s fondly called, had a poor run with the bat in the first leg. But he has been in very good form recently. He will be looking to carry his form into the UAE.
Yuzvendra Chahal (RCB)
