KKR vs RR Dream11 Match Prediction Choices For Captain And Vice-Captain
Yashasvi Jaiswal – Captain
Yashasvi Jaiswal has been the cornerstone of Rajasthan Royals’ batting this season, accumulating 426 runs in 10 matches with an impressive strike rate of over 150. His ability to dominate spinners and provide explosive starts makes him a prime candidate for captaincy in this crucial encounter at Eden Gardens.
Varun Chakravarthy – Vice-captain
Varun Chakravarthy has been a standout performer for KKR, claiming 13 wickets in 10 matches with an economical bowling style that troubles batsmen, especially on Eden Gardens’ slow and turning pitch.
