IPL 2018: 4 reasons why RCB vs KXIP is going to be an exciting contest

#3 Battle between the spinners

Ashwin opened the attack in the last game

Both the teams have a well-built spin-attack, Yuzvendra Chahal and Washington Sundar being the spin-twins for RCB, backed by Murugan Ashwin, Pawan Negi whereas KXIP have a trio consisting of the skipper Ravichandran Ashwin, Axar Patel and Mujeeb Ur Rahman, likely to be in the XI.

The interesting bit is, both of them have spinners who can bowl in the powerplay, and might have to face the swashbuckling batting lineup either-way. There will be a competitive environment amongst the spinners, who are yet to cement their spot in the Indian limited overs side.

On top of that, the eyes will be on a couple of teenagers, Sundar and Mujeeb, who have already represented their respective countries.
