The League stage reaches its final game. The Rajasthan Royals are on a downward spiral having lost four on the trot. They will be hoping for a win to finish in the top two while carrying some momentum into the Final game. Both sides though are going to have some challenges. Phil Salt and Jos Buttler are back in England leaving both sides looking for openers. KKR has a capable one though in Rahmanullah Gurbaz while RR are in some trouble with Tom Kohler Cadmore looking a touch inexperienced.

RR vs KKR Key Players

Rahmanullah Gurbaz

Rahmanullah Gurbaz is likely to be the like-for-like swap for Phil Salt. He is an aggressive and innovative batter himself and can be the perfect foil for the hard-hitting Sunil Narine.

Yashashvi Jaiswal

With Buttler gone, Jaiswal will have to find some consistency. He has played pretty well this season regardless but the slump is starting to like a concern which is where Jaiswal will be hoping to make some changes.
