KKR take on RCB today in Match 36 of IPL 2024 at Eden Gardens in Kolkata. We are halfway into the league and RCB are still looking for their second win of the season. That tells you about the kind of campaign they have had so far. Apart from Virat Kohli and Dinesh Karthik, no one has really stepped up for them on a consistent basis. On the other hand, KKR have been very consistent, with all their departments clicking. When it comes to making your fantasy team app, you cannot miss out on some of the in-form players.

Sunil Narine becomes the first player today which you should pick your fantasy team. Kohli also becomes an obvious pick as well as Karthik. From RCB, take Will Jacks and Reece Topley as well. Shreyas Iyer is in good touch as well. Andre Russell, Phil Salt should also be taken into account.
As far as availability of the players is concerned, Glenn Maxwell has opted out of IPL 2024 due to mental fatigue. Whether he returns to play today or not is not clear. KKR have not played Nitish Rana yet. He is said to be fit but maybe KKR do not want to break the current combination to fit him in. Rinku Singh said that he is fit again to take part in a full-fledged match.
