Soon after, Bangalore skipper Kohli (17) too failed to make an impression when he had his stumps knocked over after getting an inside edge off the bowling of Kallis.
The Knight Riders have made two changes for this match with Senanayake and Debabrata Das replacing Eoin Morgan and Iqbal Abdulla.
On the other hand, the Royal Challengers bring in Abhimanyu Mithun for Syed Mohammad.
The Knight Riders will be eyeing revenge in their match against the Royal Challengers in Ranchi's first IPL game at the Jharkhand Cricket Association's International stadium.
It is exactly a month since the two teams clashed in Bangalore where Chris Gayle blew away KKR with a 50-ball 85 that was laced with nine sixes.
Riding on Gayle's brilliance and some other notable performers, RCB are among the top-four in the points table while KKR are languishing in the bottom half.
Both teams will go into the match high on confidence winning their last games. While KKR comprehensively beat a hapless Pune Warriors, RCB pulled off a thriller against the Delhi Daredevils on Friday.
