RCB vs KKR: Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) continued their winning streak at Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB)’s home ground. It is remarkable that this momentum started with the first IPL itself. What’s more, KKR, who started their IPL campaign with a crushing 140-run defeat at the hands of RCB in 2008, are still recognized as the strongest team at the Chinnaswamy Stadium.
These statistics are proof of this. RCB and KKR have met 12 times at Chinnaswamy Stadium. The host team Royal Challengers Bangalore have won only 4 times which has to be believed.
That means, Kolkata Knight Riders team won 8 times at RCB team’s home ground. Surprisingly, RCB have not managed a single win against KKR at the Chinnaswamy Stadium since 2015. That is, 6 defeats in a row.
RCB got their first win at Chinnaswamy Stadium in 2010. After this it managed to register success in 2011 and 2013. After that he won in 2015. This is the end. After that, it is surprising that the RCB team could not beat the KKR team at home.
