#1 Virat Kohli vs Trent Boult

In Trent Boult, DD have one of the best new ball bowlers in the world and his duel against Virat Kohli is going to set the tone for tonight’s game. The RCB captain is the highest scorer in the tournament so far, and although his unbeaten 92 in the previous game was an act of preserving the net run rate, it showed that he is definitely back in form.
On the other hand, Boult is the sort of bowler who can bowl a spell that can rip the heart out of any batting order and that is why this is a battle that is not only going to be a battle between two top-class performers but also has a say in the result of the game.
If Kohli manages to attack right from the word 'go', the DD bowling attack might fall apart. However, if Boult manages to dismiss the current holder of the Orange Cap then RCB might find themselves in trouble at their home ground.
