KKR captain Ajinkya Rahane is the highest run -scorer for his team in IPL 2025. Rahane is one of the batsmen who scored the most runs against RCB in IPL history. He has so far scored 801 runs against Bengaluru. RCB bowlers will have to stay away from Rahane.
Varun chakravarti
Varun Chakraborty, known as ‘Mystery Spinner’, can create a bed of good batsmen. He has taken 17 wickets in 12 matches so far and also has the top wicket of KKR in the season. RCB batsmen will have to stay away from Chakravarti’s spin.
Sunil Naren
