Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) are raring to register a win and open their account in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2018. Virat Kohli & Co. will be facing Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) on their homeground. According to RCB leggie Yuzvendra Chahal, the pitch has been changed from the previous edition and is expected to be a batting paradise. They will miss KL Rahul’s services who is in red-hot form for KXIP hitting the fastest IPL half-century in the previous match.
