Kolkata, 22/3: Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) won the toss on Saturday and elected to bowl against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the first match of the 18th IPL season.
The game is taking place at Eden Gardens in Kolkata and began after a star-studded opening ceremony.
Experts weighed in that in Eden, if one wins the toss first, it is better to bowl first. With a cold breeze that can be felt, rain might be on the cards as well, commentators said ahead of the game.
