The first match of IPL 2025 is currently being played between Kolkata Knight Riders and Royal Challengers Bangalore at Eden Gardens in Kolkata. In this match, Royal Challengers Bangalore won the toss and decided to bowl first.

Experienced fast bowler Bhuvneshwar Kumar is not playing against the Royal Challengers Bangalore team against Kolkata Knight Riders. Bhuvneshwar Kumar has also left a deep impression in the IPL. However, the team has not included them in their playing XI in this match.

Why did Bhuvi not get a place in playing 11

Bhuvneshwar Kumar has taken 181 wickets in 176 matches in the IPL. Not only this, Royal Challengers Bangalore included Bhuvneshwar Kumar in his team for Rs 10.75 crore in the IPL 2025 mega auction.

Instead of Bhuvi, the team has included Yash Dayal and Rasikh Dar Salaam in playing XI. According to reports, Bhuvi is ill, due to which he did not get a place in the team. But no official update has been revealed by the franchise so far. Bhuvneshwar Kumar has also participated in the Indian Premier League on behalf of Sunrisers Hyderabad and Pune Warriors.

Royal Challengers Bangalore chose bowling by winning the toss against Kolkata Knight Riders

Kolkata Knight Riders have been very poor against Royal Challengers Bangalore and opener Quinton de Kock has returned to the pavilion after scoring four runs. However, Kolkata Knight Riders have such a bang batsman who can return to the match with aggressive batting. Both teams can be seen playing best cricket in this match.
