Oct 11, 2021
19:30 IST / 14:00 GMT
Sharjah Cricket Stadium - Sharjah, United Arab Emirates
Glenn Maxwell has been in fantastic form for RCB and is our tip for their highest run scorer against KKR. With the ball, Harshal Patel already has 30 wickets in the tournament and is targeting Dwayne Bravo’s record of 32 wickets from 2013. Patel is our recommendation for RCB’s top wicket taker in this match.
Opener Shubman Gill has hit half-centuries in both of KKR’s last two games and is well worth backing as their leading run scorer against RCB. Shivam Mavi has impressed in the UAE with the ball and took 4-21 against Rajasthan Royals. Mavi is a strong choice for KKR’s top wicket taker against RCB.
Glenn Maxwell is unstoppable with the bat at the moment. Harshal Patel may well run him close but we are backing the Australian to take the Player of The Match Award in this game.

RCB vs KKR T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips, Eliminator IPL 2021
The 2021 Indian Premier League Eliminator sees Royal Challengers Bangalore take on Kolkata Knight Riders at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium on Monday evening. RCB finished in 3rd place in the group stage, level on points with CSK in 2nd. KKR confirmed their place in the play-offs with a big win over Rajasthan Royals during the final round of group games. The Eliminator begins at 19:30 local time.
RCB showed that although they finished in 3rd place, they should be rated as one of the favourites after beating a full strength Delhi Capitals by 7 wickets on Friday. Virat Kolhi’s side will be fully motivated for this Eliminator.
KKR began the tournament in very poor form but have slowly picked up and come into this match after successive victories. They will be the underdogs but suddenly have plenty of players at the top of their game in the UAE.

Read on for team previews, betting tips, latest odds, and match prediction for Royal Challengers Bangalore vs Kolkata Knight Riders Eliminator, IPL 2021.
Virat Kohli’s side made a statement in selecting a full strength side against Delhi Capitals and then went a step further by winning with 7 wickets in hand. They have a team full of match winners with bat and ball who will be raring to go in a match of such importance.
RCB Key Players
Glenn Maxwell- the Australian batting all-rounder has produced scores of 56, 50, 57*, 40 and 51* in his last five innings of IPL 2021.
Virat Kohli- the captain will be motivated by the knowledge that a defeat would mean this is his last game captaining RCB.
Harshal Patel- the pace bowler only took 1 wicket on Friday but it was the big scalp of Shikhar Dhawan. Patel could yet break the record for number of wickets in an IPL season.
RCB Team Form
Apart from a shock defeat against bottom of the table Sunrisers Hyderabad, RCB have beaten all-comers over recent games.
RCB Predicted Playing 11
Virat Kohli (c), Devdutt Padikkal, Srikar Bharat (wk), AB de Villiers, Glenn Maxwell, Daniel Christian, Shahbaz Ahmed, Harshal Patel, George Garton, Mohammed Siraj, Yuzvendra Chahal

KKR Team News & Playing 11
KKR Team News
Eoin Morgan’s side went into the final round of group games knowing that there was a chance that Mumbai Indians could snatch 4th place with a net-run-rate swing. However, KKR then produced an excellent batting performance and showed they can deliver when the pressure is on.
KKR Key Players
Shubman Gill- the international opener had not passed 50 before the last two games but is now suddenly a vital part of KKR’s top order.
Lockie Ferguson- the New Zealand pace bowler has been very effective in the UAE leg, taking 10 wickets in five games and yet to go wicketless.
Shivam Mavi- the bowling all-rounder has been a constant threat during this leg of the tournament and got his rewards with 4-21 against Rajasthan Royals.
KKR Team Form
With two wins in a row and three wins from their last four games, KKR can no longer be dismissed as the inconsistent team in the competition.
We are backing Virat Kohli, Devdutt Padikkal and Glenn Maxwell with the bat for RCB. Maxwell has had his most successful IPL campaign with the bat this year.
Shubman Gill, Rahul Tripathi and Venkatesh Iyer are our tips with the bat for RCB. Gill has emerged as a reliable presence at the top of the order in the last week.
Yuzvendra Chahal, Harshal Patel and Mohammed Siraj are our recommendations with the ball for RCB. Patel has shown incredible development form previous seasons.
Our picks with the ball for KKR are Lockie Ferguson, Varun Chakravarthy and Shivam Mavi. Ferguson and Mavi have both come to the fore in the UAE.
With the T20 World Cup approaching, this may not be the last time we see Virat Kohli and Eoin Morgan come face to face in a knockout game in the UAE over the coming month. We expect these teams to produce an entertaining game with KKR coming through to take the win.
