Dinesh Karthik-led Kolkata will host Steven Smith-led Rajasthan Royals at Eden Gardens on Thursday night.

Kolkata Knight Riders will be desperate to win the game at any cost. They are heading into the game on a back of five back-to-back losses in the tournament. Surprisingly, they lost three of their own games in the last five, which would certainly put an extra-pressure on KKR.

On the other hand, Rajasthan Royals have almost lost their chances for the playoff. However, mathematically, they are still in the race if the other scenarios go in their way in the upcoming. The absence of Jos Buttler would certainly be a major issue for the side, as the power-hitters are failing to come into the zone.

Here is the Dream11 Prediction, Fantasy League Tips

First of all, it is crucial to select a team which has players who will surely play in the game. As they say in cricket, you don’t score any runs in the dressing room. Similarly, a player who is not playing cannot score points for you. In fact, Dream11 has brought a change in its rule by which you can alter your team even after the toss. Thus, you can pick your team according to the playing XI of both sides.

Secondly, it is pivotal to pick the right combination of captain and vice-captain. A captain gets twice the points whereas the deputy of the team will 1.5 times the points. Thus, it is imperative to select the big in-form players as your respective captain and vice-captain.

It is also crucial to get top order batsmen in the team as they are likely to score the major chunk of the score. Furthermore, it is pivotal to check the pitch conditions and select the team accordingly.

In fact, one can take a gamble of selecting a player who has less chance of succeeding in big leagues. Thus, that particular player has less chance of getting selected by other users. Consequently, if that player fires at all cylinders then it can be a big bonus.
