IPL MATCH PREDICTION: Rajasthan Royals vs Kolkata Knight Riders, match 30
At the Brabourne Stadium, the Rajasthan Royals will face the Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL 2022 Match 30. Both clubs have enjoyed a strong start to the campaign, but their shortcomings have been highlighted in recent games. The Kolkata Knight Riders, in particular, have lost two games in a row, and their poor start has persisted despite the dismissal of Ajinkya Rahane. Varun Chakaravarthy will be hoping to bounce back from his off-day. Aaron Finch may get another chance at the top to prove his worth.
The loss of Trent Boult in the Rajasthan Royals' line-up, on the other hand, was felt, with Kuldeep Sen going for plenty. Rassie van der Dussen was dismissed cheaply once more, and Yashasvi Jaiswal may be given another chance at the top of the order. In the middle overs, Shimron Hetmyer has been a revelation, and the franchise will be hoping to get back on track in the forthcoming match.

Rajasthan Royals vs Kolkata Knight Riders, 30th match of IPL 2022
Date & time: 18th April, 2022, 7:30PM IST
Venue: Brabourne Stadium, Mumbai
Pitch report
The team that wins the toss will choose to bat first. Anti-dew sprays have been sprayed later than before to lessen the effect of the dew, but teams still desire to chase. Two of the last four matches have been won by the batting side, and two by the chasing team.
The weather will most likely be similar to what we've observed so far. Brabourne is one of the best batting venues in the country, and these are two formidable batsmen. We could see a battle in which both teams score more than 170 points. Of course, spin has begun to play a role in most locations, and it will continue to do so in the future.
