What's the story
Kings XI Punjab and Royal Challengers Bangalore are set to meet each other in match number 28 of the Indian Premier League 2019.
KXIP are fourth on the table. RCB are yet to open their mark and it's a must-win scenario for Virat Kohli and his boys.
Fans, who are playing Dream11, will be looking to pick the winning team.
We decode the same.
Batting
In-form KL Rahul leads this batting unit
KL Rahul leads this Dream11 side.
The wicket-keeper batsman has been in prime form with the bat and he will be looking to continue in the same vein.
Virat Kohli (vice-captain) opens the batting alongside Rahul.
He has been RCB's top run-scorer in IPL 12.
AB de Villiers and David Miller add vital experience in the batting line-up.
Sarfaraz Khan is another addition.
All-rounders
Ashwin, Moeen lead the three-man all-round department
We have gone for a three-man all-round department to add the desire depth.
Sam Curran fits in as the pace-bowling all-rounder.
Curran will look to be among the wickets.
R Ashwin is in solid form with the ball and his presence is crucial in this fantasy side.
Englishman Moeen Ali brings further stability with his all-round skills.
He can produce a brisk cameo.
Bowling
A look at the bowling department
KXIP pacer Mohammed Shami will be a threat for RCB batsmen and he has been on song so far.
Shami's consistency could be a decisive factor.
He is joined by RCB's Navdeep Saini in the pace department.
Saini is the only Indian RCB pacer that has shown some quality.
Yuzvendra Chahal is the spinner of this side. He will look to do well.
Prediction
Predicted starting XI and possible winner
Predicted KXIP starting XI: Rahul (wicket-keeper), Curran, Karun, Miller, Sarfaraz, Mandeep, Viljoen, Ashwin (captain), Shami, Mujeeb and Rajpoot.
Predicted RCB starting XI: Kohli (captain), Parthiv (wicket-keeper), AB de Villiers, Moeen, Stoinis, Akshdeep, Negi, Southee, Chahal, Umesh and Saini.
Given the success KXIP have enjoyed at home, we expect the side to come out on top.
RCB might struggle once again to come through.
