Inhibiting their colossal campaign with four back-to-back defeats lately, the Rajasthan Royals are set to put their derailed season back on track as they meet the table toppers the Kolkata Knight Riders on May 19, at Barsapara Cricket Stadium, Guwahati. The two sides, who are placed in the top two positions in the points table are expected to meet again in Qualifier 1, albeit if Sanju Samson-led side prevail.
The home side, who displayed an invincible performance in the first half, imploded in the next half as the Pink outfits managed to win just a single game in the last five and four consecutive defeats in the final four. With the return of their star batter Jos Buttler to his country, the opening combination has flummoxed with another England batter Tom Kohler-Cadmore replacing the English skipper for RR.
For the visitors, everything has fallen in line since the inception of the twice World Cup winner Gautam Gambhir as their mentor. The two-time IPL champions have been in exceptional form with only losing three games this season and being close to breaching the 20-point mark in the points table. The Shreyas Iyer-led side is all set to appear in the Qualifier 1 too.
