IPL 2020, RCB vs KXIP-RCB opener Devdutt Padikkal expecting ‘lot of banter’ with Karnataka teammates in KXIP

The magnificence of Indian Premier League (IPL) can be in its full glory at Dubai International Stadium on Thursday. Royal Challengers Bagalore and Kings XI Punajab’s conflict will see loads of associates enjoying towards one another.

While, KXIP captain KL Rahul and their star opener Chris Gayle had been as soon as half of RCB, each the groups have a number of Team India regulars who’ve performed loads towards one another in the nets. Also, somebody like younger RCB opener Devdutt Padikkal, can be dealing with his Ranji teammates Karantaka’s KL Rahul, Karun Nair and Mayanak Agarwal.

“I have played a lot of cricket against them. It’s good to have a lot of information about them but at the end of the day, everyday is different and hopefully we will beat KXIP and make it 2 in 2. It will be very good for us,” Washington stated on the eve of the match.

Yuzvendra Chahal echoed comparable sentiments and stated a “good competition” was on card as everybody is aware of one another.

“They have played me so much in the nets. It will be like a good competition, every knows each other very well and we have played together for 5-6 years. Tomorrow will be a very exciting match.”

Devdutt Padikkal made a sensational IPL debut towards SRH and smashed a 42-ball 56 to make himself a family in RCB’s very first match of the season. Twitter was abuzz with praises for him. Padikkal is expecting fairly just a few banters from his Karnataka teammates in KXIP crew.

“I am really looking forward to play against them. We have had many good times together now we need to see what we can do against each other. We have a lot of banter in the Karnataka dressing room, I would expect the same tomorrow,” Devdutt Padikkal stated.

Apart from the clashes between the Indians gamers, there can be contest between two just a few Aussies as properly. RCB’s Joshua Philippe and Aaron Finch will conflict towards KXIP’s star all-rounder Glenn Maxwell. Joshua stated that enjoying towards Maxwell is at all times “nerve-wracking”.

“It’s always nerve-wracking playing against Maxi because he is an absolute superstar and he can smack it everywhere. Hopefully we catch him on one of his bad days and he doesn’t do too much of damage. It will be super exciting and I am sure that we will have a little bit of chat out there,” Josh Philippe

It would even be intresting to see the competition between RCB captain Virat Kohli and Mohammad Shami.
