IPL Fantasy League 2016 Tips: KKR vs RCB

·         RCB need to win all their three remaining games to make it to the last four while KKR already have a foot into the play-offs and need just one victory from their remaining three outings. RCB registered a crushing 144-run victory over Gujarat Lions at their home turf on Saturday. Later, on the same day KKR tamed Rising Pune Supergiants by eight wickets at the Eden Gardens. All eyes will be on the KKR bowling and how they fare against the likes of Kohli and de Villiers. The track is likely to be a turner again but the pair has been getting runs on every surface.

·         Best economical pick – Sachin Baby, the young lad from Kerala has earned a name for himself and has become a crucial part of the team through his pivotal performances in the few games. He scored a 29-ball 33 against KXIP and followed it up with a 13-ball 25 both highly critical innings considering the circumstances. He has established himself as a dependable batsman is keen on extending his good run.

·         Top captains & vice captains – India's batting masterclass Virat Kohli and South Africa's batting genius AB de Villiers record 229 run-partnership for 2nd wicket. They orchestrated a mayhem by scoring magnificent centuries as Royal Challengers Bangalore  inflicted a crushing 144-run defeat on league leaders Gujarat Lions, recording the biggest ever victory in the history of IPL. Records tumbled as Kohli (108) and AB de Villiers (129*) plundered Gujarat Lions' bowlers. Virat Kohli sets new IPL record of scoring 3 IPL tons in a single season.

·         Smart pick – Chris Gayle a former KKR player loves the Eden track. The last time the burly Jamaican was here in 2015 for RCB, he had smashed a 56-ball 96. The left-hander has been struggling in the current tournament, scoring just 19 runs in five games. However, he can take heart from his previous performances here

·        Be careful – Manish Pandey the promising 26-year-old batsman who bats at the crucial No 3 position for KKR has scored a duck against GL in his comeback match after a calf injury. After that Pandey played a good knock against RPS where he scored 15 runs off 10 balls.

My XI – Virat Kohli (Captain), AB de Villiers (Vice-Captain), Sachin Baby, Chris Gayle, R Uthappa, Y Chahal, P Chawla, Chris Jordan, L Rahul, S Yadav, Brad Hogg
