Top 3 bowlers RCB vs KKR in IPL 2025

The defending Champions, Kolkata Knight Riders, are going to go toe-to-toe against the in-form team, Royal Challengers Bangalore, in match number 58 of the 18th edition of the Indian Premier League. The three-time Champions will look to avenge their defeat against RCB from this season’s opening match. Royal Challengers Bangalore have been on a winning streak from the past four matches, while Kolkata Knight lost its last match against Chennai Super Kings. A victory in this fixture shall propel Royal Challengers Bangalore to the top of the league standings, while one for Kolkata shall keep them alive in the tournament. 

While RCB managed only 15 victories, KKR had 20 to their tally. Although the pitch at Chinnaswamy is known to favour the batters, the bowlers shall play an equally important role in this battle of dominance against survival.

Here is the list of three bowlers to watch out for:

Varun Chakravarthy

The right-arm mystery spinner has had a decent IPL so far. He has scalped 17 wickets in 12 innings at an economy rate of 7 runs an over. His ability to pick up wickets in bunches during the middle phase is what sets him apart from the rest of the bowlers in the KKR unit. His performance against the big batting names of RCB will be essential to KKR’s chances.

2. Vaibhav Arora

The right-arm fast medium bowler has exceeded expectations this season with his string of good performances. He has scalped 16 wickets in 11 innings at an economy of nearly 10 runs an over. He helps taking wickets in death overs of the match, which makes him an important asset.

1. Josh Hazlewood

The Australian pacer has decided to return to his franchise and help them lift their maiden IPL trophy. He has scalped 18 wickets in 10 innings at an economy of 8.5 runs an over. His ability to swing and seam the new ball in early overs, as well as using variations in the death overs, makes him a tough nut to crack.
