About Team Kolkata Knight Riders

Previous defending IPL Champion, Kolkata Knight Riders has won IPL title twice in 2012 and 2014. Consistently in previous four IPL Seasons KKR is performing very well under Gautam Gambhir's captaincy. Kolkata is having useful match winning players like: Robin Uthappa, Manish Pandey, Sunil Narine, Yusuf Pathan and Gautam Gambhir himself. Team Kolkata have huge confidence as they are winner of previous IPL title and having good all-rounders in team. Knight Riders would like to continued the momentum of 2014 IPL season and performed well in 2015 IPL edition. In IPL 2014, KKR retained only 2 players, skipper Gautam Gambhir and Sunil Narine.

About Team Royal Challengers Bangalore

Royal Challengers Bangalore, always performed well in initial leage matches but, failed to kept momentum in important matches in IPL history. Royal Challengers Bangalore is only un-fortunate team who qualified twice for final but, failed to grab IPL title once. RCB have powerful top order batsmen like: CH Gayle, AB de Villiers and skipper Virat Kohli. Mitchell Starc, Nic Maddinson, Varun Aaron and Ashoke Dinda are also capable to handle bowling department well. During trading window season 2015, RCB traded Manvinder Bisla, Iqbal Abdullah and Mandeep Singh to increase more strength for 2015. Bangalore also bought Dinesh Karthik (Ind), S Badrinath (Ind), Daren Sammy (WI), Sean Abbott (Aus), Adam Milne (NZ), David Wiese (SA) and few India un-capped players through auction process. Lets hope Bangalore come back with high quality performances and succeeded to registered maiden IPL title in 2015.
