Harsha Bhogle explains why Kolkata should keep the margin of victory as big as possible against Rajasthan tonight
Even if RR go past 111, KKR could still benefit from a drop in NRR for the team that loses tomorrow (DC vs RCB). Must keep the margin of victory as big as possible.

Harsha Bhogle decodes the added incentives for Rajasthan to chase down this stiff total in order to keep their tournament hopes alive
In their last two games, @rajasthanroyals have chased 185 and 195. Now another big one but this time there is the added incentive, or pressure, of staying alive for the play-offs.
