Kolkata vs Bangalore: Battle of Inconsistent Performers

Both Bangalore and Kolkata are home to some of the biggest household names in world cricket and in the Indian T20 League . While Virat Kohli is synonymous with Bangalore and attracts eyeballs and support wherever he goes, Shreyas Iyer is fast emerging as the face of the Kolkata team.

While Bangalore finished 3rd in the 2022 season, Kolkata failed to qualify for the playoffs. Faf du Plessis will look to take Bangalore to its first title while Team Kolkata will look to add to its two titles, last of which came in 2014.
