𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 :​​​ Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Kolkata Knight Riders 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : May 25,Sunday​ 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 19:30 PM IST​​ 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ Arun Jaitley Stadium, Central Delhi, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 :​ Indian Premier League, 2025 Sunrisers Hyderabad have hit a bit of form late into the tournament, picking up wins in three of their last four matches. Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Kolkata Knight Riders TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. SRH vs KKR Match Prediction & Analysis Match 68 of IPL 2025 has Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) facing off against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) this Sunday in Delhi. Neither team has made the playoffs, and this will be the last outing of the season for both. SRH had a rough start but have managed to build some rhythm in the latter stages and will be aiming to close things out on a high. KKR, meanwhile, have struggled to find any rhythm and haven’t looked like the team that lifted the trophy last year. Though they got the better of SRH earlier this year, current form leans toward Hyderabad heading into this clash. TEAMS PREVIEW Sunrisers Hyderabad Preview Sunrisers Hyderabad may be out of the playoff race, but that’s actually worked in their favor. With less at stake, they’ve looked more relaxed and have taken three wins from their last four matches, including a solid 42-run victory over Royal Challengers Bengaluru in their previous fixture. Their top order is where most of the runs come from. If the openers click—especially Abhishek Sharma—the team usually ends up with a strong score. Abhishek has been brilliant this season, scoring 407 runs in 12 innings at a strike rate of 193. The middle order has been hit-and-miss. Heinrich Klaasen, Ishan Kishan, and Nitish Kumar have each chipped in here and there— Kishan’s 94 off 48 last time out was a prime example—but none have strung together a consistent run of form. That said, when any one of them settles in, they’re fully capable of flipping the game around.  Lower down, Aniket Verma has quietly chipped in with the bat. He’s striking at 165 and has managed to score handy runs at the end on more than one occasion. Kolkata Knight Riders Preview Kolkata Knight Riders, last year’s champions, have struggled to find their rhythm this season—just five wins and six losses from 13 matches put them in seventh place. Their last game against Royal Challengers Bengaluru was abandoned due to rain, ending any hopes of a playoff spot. With one game left, KKR will want to end on a high and give their fans something to cheer for. So, what’s gone off-track this time? To begin with, the batting lineup has been hit-or-miss. Ajinkya Rahane has been the most reliable with 375 runs in 11 innings, while others haven’t been able to keep things steady. Quinton de Kock made way for Rahmanullah Gurbaz, but the change didn’t bring better results. Sunil Narine has had a few quick starts up top but hasn’t been able to carry it through regularly. On the positive side, Andre Russell seems to be getting back into the groove—smashing 38 off 21 and then an unbeaten 57 off 25 in the last two games. Angkrish Raghuvanshi has also been one of the bright spots—286 runs in 10 innings, averaging 35.75 with a strike rate of 145.17. On the bowling side, things have been more stable. Harshit Rana and Vaibhav Arora have shared 31 wickets between them, though they’ve leaked runs at the death. Varun Chakaravarthy and Narine have been tight in the middle overs, taking 17 wickets between them. Their eight overs could make a difference again. Russell has chipped in with tight overs late in the game and grabbed important wickets as well. Weather Conditions The pitch at Arun Jaitley Stadium tends to stay true and flattens out nicely under lights. Batters usually feel confident playing through the line here, especially with anything square of the wicket—timing tends to pay off. While spinners might find a bit of grip as the match progresses, it’s usually nothing substantial that affects the game. This is typically a ground where runs come if you’re set. Delhi’s weather will be on the warmer, more humid side, but there’s no rain expected. SRH vs KKR Pitch Report The average first innings score at Delhi’s Arun Jaitley Stadium is 171. In the last two matches played here, the team batting first posted totals of 199 and 187, but they were chased down comfortably in the end. Expect another high-scoring game with both teams targeting a total of over 200 to feel confident. Toss: To Bowl The previous two IPL 2025 matches at Arun Jaitley Stadium were both won with little trouble by the team batting second. These outcomes make it pretty clear that teams have a better chance when chasing here.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Kolkata Knight Riders, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 :​ Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Kolkata Knight Riders𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : May 17,Saturday​𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 19:30 PM IST​​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 :​ Indian Premier League 2025 Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Kolkata Knight Riders last faced each other in the IPL 2025 season opener, where RCB cruised to a 7-wicket victory. Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Kolkata Knight Riders TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. RCB vs KKR Match Prediction & Analysis After a short pause, IPL 2025 is back with Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) set to take on Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the Chinnaswamy Stadium. RCB have had a strong run this season, sitting in second place with 16 points from 11 matches and all but through to the playoffs. KKR, on the other hand, are sixth with 11 points from 12 games and are in must-win territory. A defeat here would shut the door on their playoff chances. RCB, riding high on form, have the upper hand going into this clash.  TEAMS PREVIEW Royal Challengers Bengaluru Preview RCB have been clinical this season and now find themselves just one win away from locking in a playoff spot. With most of their overseas players back in the mix after the break, they’ll feel good about their chances as the tournament picks up again. Virat Kohli has been in outstanding touch, scoring 505 runs from 11 innings at an average of 63.12 and a strike rate of 143.46. He’s the one to watch, especially against KKR—a team he’s scored 1021 runs against in 32 innings at 40.84. Phil Salt, who had to sit out due to illness and opened the door for Jacob Bethell’s debut, is expected to be available for the rest of IPL 2025. That’s a big lift for RCB since Salt is capable of firing early in the innings. Captain Rajat Patidar has stepped up with 239 runs in 10 innings, scoring at a brisk 140.58. Down the order, RCB will look to Tim David and Romario Shepherd to finish with fire. Shepherd’s knock against Chennai Super Kings—an unbeaten 53 off 14—was a reminder of what he can do. Josh Hazlewood missing out is a tough pill to swallow, given how central he’s been with the ball. Still, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Krunal Pandya have chipped in with wickets and bring some experience. Kolkata Knight Riders Preview Kolkata Knight Riders, the defending champs, have had a bumpy run this season—just five wins against six losses from 12 matches puts them sixth on the table. With two games left and a net run rate of 0.193, they’ll need strong wins and a bit of luck from other fixtures to stay in the playoff picture. The batting order hasn’t really clicked. Ajinkya Rahane stands out with 375 runs in 11 innings, while the rest have been patchy at best. Quinton de Kock was dropped in favor of Rahmanullah Gurbaz, but the swap hasn’t paid off yet. Sunil Narine has had a few quick-fire knocks at the top, though he hasn’t found much consistency. Andre Russell, on the other hand, looks to be back in form—scoring 38 off 21 and following it up with a blazing 57* off 25 in the last two games. Angkrish Raghuvanshi has added real value—286 runs in 10 innings at an average of 35.75 and a strike rate of 145.17. With Venkatesh Iyer injured in the previous match, Manish Pandey stepped in and delivered a calm 36* off 28, likely keeping him in the XI moving forward. Weather Conditions Batters usually enjoy themselves at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, thanks to a pitch that’s typically flat and reliable—just right for clearing the ropes. If there’s something in it for spinners, it tends to show up in the middle overs, as was the case in the last match at this venue. But unless the surface changes drastically, bowlers won’t have much to work with. Rain could be an issue in Bengaluru on Saturday, with a 76% chance of showers and a possible thunderstorm in the afternoon. That means we could be looking at a delayed start or a game that keeps getting interrupted. At M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, teams batting first typically average 168 runs. But this venue often delivers big scores – Sunrisers Hyderabad smashed 287 against RCB here in IPL 2024, setting a new tournament record. For this match, the side batting first will likely aim for 200-210 to feel comfortable. Toss: To Bat The last two matches played at the Chinnaswamy was won by the team batting first. This might prompt both captains to bat first in this game.

Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Kolkata Knight Riders, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Kolkata Knight Riders 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : May 10,Saturday 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 19:30 PM IST​​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium, Hyderabad, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 :​ Indian Premier League 2025 KKR’s playoff chances are hanging by a thread. They must win both of their remaining matches by large margins and still hope other results fall in their favor. Scotland vs United Arab Emirates TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. SRH vs KKR Match Prediction & Analysis Match 60 of IPL 2025 has Sunrisers Hyderabad hosting Kolkata Knight Riders this Saturday at Uppal Stadium. With only 7 points from 11 games, SRH are out of playoff contention. They’ll now be playing to save face and try to end the season on a positive note. KKR, on the other hand, have won just 5 of their 12 matches and haven’t managed to string together consistent performances. That said, they’ve had the upper hand over SRH in recent seasons and will carry that edge into this clash. TEAMS PREVIEW Sunrisers Hyderabad Preview Sunrisers Hyderabad are officially out of the tournament, and it sums up their season—disappointing. Their last match against Delhi Capitals was called off due to rain, which hurt even more because they finally got things right with the ball. They kept DC down to 133-7, a rare strong showing, but never got a chance to chase it. Most of SRH’s wins have come when the top order got going early. But once they lose early wickets, it’s usually downhill from there. A solid start is non-negotiable, and that puts pressure on Abhishek Sharma and Travis Head to deliver. Abhishek has had his moments—like that belligerent 141 off 88 against Punjab and the 74 off 41 against GT—but Head has struggled badly, and that’s set them back. Heinrich Klaasen, Ishan Kishan, and Nitish Kumar follow next. None have strung together big scores consistently, but they’ve each had flashes where they looked capable of turning a game. Just one decent innings from any of them could flip the script here. Aniket Verma has been one of the few who’s held up his end. With a strike rate of 154, he’s been dependable at the back end and knows how to close. The bowling finally clicked last game. Pat Cummins led from the front with a superb 3-19, and Harshal Patel chipped in during the middle overs, as he has throughout the tournament, using his variations smartly to pick up wickets. Zeeshan Ansari and Jaydev Unadkat have chipped in with 13 wickets between them and have managed to keep things fairly tight in the middle phase. Kolkata Knight Riders Preview Kolkata Knight Riders, the reigning champions, haven’t had the smoothest season—just five wins and six losses from their 12 matches, placing them sixth on the table. With only two games left and a net run rate of 0.193, they’ll need to win both convincingly and hope other match results work in their favor to stay in playoff contention. KKR’s batting lineup has been inconsistent. Ajinkya Rahane has been the one steady presence topping the batting charts with 375 runs in 11 innings, while others have struggled to put together a strong run. Quinton de Kock made way for Rahmanullah Gurbaz, but the Afghan hasn’t made much of an impact yet. Sunil Narine has had his moments at the top, though his scores have fluctuated. That said, he’s always capable of a quick 20 or 30. Andre Russell, meanwhile, has found some momentum again with two strong finishes in the last two matches: 38 off 21 and an unbeaten 57 from 25. Angkrish Raghuvanshi has been another bright spot, putting up 286 runs in 10 innings at an average of 35.75 and a strike rate of 145.17. With Venkatesh Iyer sidelined due to injury in the last match, Manish Pandey was brought in and responded with a composed 36* off 28 balls. He’s likely to keep his spot in the lineup. KKR’s bowling has held up reasonably well. Harshit Rana and Vaibhav Arora have done a good job up front, sharing 31 wickets, though they tend to go for runs later in the innings. Varun Chakaravarthy, Narine, and Moeen Ali have kept things under control in the middle overs, and their 12 combined overs could again make a difference. Russell’s also chipped in with some tight overs at the death and has picked up wickets at important times. Weather Conditions The Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium usually leans towards high-scoring games, but some of the pitches used in IPL 2025 have thrown in a few surprises. Pitch number two is still behaving the way most expect—flat, good pace, and plenty of runs in it. That said, if they pick one of the other strips, like the one used in the last game here, things tighten up. The surface tends to grip more, especially during the middle overs, and batting can get a bit tricky. As for the weather, Hyderabad will be warm and muggy. There’s nothing in the forecast that suggests rain, so the match should go ahead without any interruptions. SRH vs KKR Pitch Report If this match is played on pitch number two, expect a high-scoring slugfest. Both teams will be eyeing totals well over 220. That surface has been used twice already this season—first, Sunrisers Hyderabad hammered 286-6 batting first and sealed a 44-run win. Then they chased down 246 with nine balls to spare. But if the game shifts to the slower track we saw last time, things change fast. Runs won’t come easy, and anything close to 180 could end up being more than enough. Toss: To Bowl Four of the five completed games played at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in IPL 2025 have been won by the chasing side, clearly indicating that fielding first is the better option here.

Kolkata Knight Riders vs Chennai Super Kings, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 :​ Kolkata Knight Riders vs Chennai Super Kings 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : May 07,Wednesday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 20:30 PM IST​​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ Eden Gardens, Kolkata, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League, 2025 KKR look to keep their playoff hopes alive Kolkata Knight Riders vs Chennai Super Kings TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. KKR vs CSK Match Prediction & Analysis Kolkata Knight Riders secured a narrow 1-run win over Rajasthan Royals in their last outing at home. There are a lot of lessons to learn from that match for the home team in terms of their bowling performance. Chennai Super Kings are struggling to even come closer to a win. This presents a great opportunity for KKR to add 2 more points to their tally and move ahead in the points table. MS Dhoni would be happy with his team’s recent performance against RCB. It was a much stronger batting performance and CSK came very close to a win. The way MSD and Jadeja were going about things in the 19th Over it looked like CSK will end up on the winning side. However, when it comes to the bowling department, both teams have a lot to improve. They have been very expensive and have lacked game-changing spells from their key bowlers. TEAMS PREVIEW Kolkata Knight Riders Preview Kolkata Knight Riders must be hopeful of making it to the playoffs. It is not an easy way ahead for the Knight Riders as they not only need to win every game while maintaining a good NRR but would also be dependent on other results. The race to the top 4 is getting much tougher by the day. Ajinkya Rahane will back his players to carry their winning momentum into this game. After a few hiccups at the home venue, KKR are back to winning ways. They are yet to master their bowling performances, but the batters have raised hopes. Andre Russell’s fifty in the last match was a glimpse into what he’s capable of and has delivered for the franchise over the years. Rinku Singh is another great finisher in the lineup. If Rahane and Angkrish Raghuvanshi can set a good platform with a solid partnership in the middle, these two finishers can propel the Knight Riders to a big total. Vaibhav Arora and Harshit Rana have been expensive for KKR. The pace bowling duo is the face of KKR’s bowling attack and will continue to lead them for many years. Sunil Narine and Varun Chakravarthy will be crucial in the spin-bowling department. Chennai Super Kings Preview Chennai Super Kings’ losing run in IPL 2025 continues. They should have won the last match against RCB with two legends of the game at the crease and not a very big ask in the last over. The time has come for CSK to realize that they need to look for new match-winners in the squad and go about restructuring. MS Dhoni and Ravindra Jadeja can no longer pull off the wins they once did. Ayush Mhatre’s 94 off 48 balls put the Super Kings in the driver’s seat in the run-chase. The 17-year-old batsman was playing only his 4th IPL game as he missed a hundred by just 6 runs. Shaik Rasheed and Mahtre could be Chennai’s next generation of big-hitting top-order batters. There is great potential in these two. Ravindra Jadeja played a highly impactful knock after quite a long time. He will be one to watch out for in this match, along with Sam Curran. The two all-rounders are in fine rhythm and can take the struggling and inconsistent KKR bowlers to the cleaners. In the lower middle order, the likes of Shivam Dube and Dewald Brewis can put on a fine performance to end the innings on a high. There has been a lot of experimentation in this batting order in the last few games. Khaleel Ahmed hasn’t been consistent with his economy or wickets. He needs support from Anshul Kamboj and Matheesha Pathirana in the pace department. It is not going to be an easy outing for CSK bowlers either. Weather Conditions There would be thundershowers in Kolkata on the match day. However, by the time of the match, it would be mostly cloudy with a high of 32 degrees Celsius. The weather should not affect the outcome of this match, and we expect to have a result. KKR vs CSK Pitch Report  looks like a fine batting track at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata. RR bounced back after losing half of the side for under 100 runs in the last game. There is plenty of help for the batters on this wicket. The average 1st innings score in the last 5 matches here is 209 runs. Teams batting first have reached the 200-run mark on this ground in 4 of the last 5 matches. Toss: To Bat Teams batting first have won 4 of the 5 IPL matches played at this venue in 2025. Though it was a very narrow win for KKR in the last outing, we would still back the team batting first on this ground, considering the inconsistencies and unpredictability in both lineups. Having runs on the board would give the team a huge advantage in this contest.

Kolkata Knight Riders vs Rajasthan Royals, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Kolkata Knight Riders vs Rajasthan Royals 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : May 04, Sunday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 15:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ Eden Gardens, Kolkata, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League, 2025 Can KKR turn things around at home? Kolkata Knight Riders vs Rajasthan Royals TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. KKR vs RR Match Prediction & Analysis Kolkata Knight Riders will take on Rajasthan Royals at their home venue in search of a way back in the race to the playoffs. The hosts have been inconsistent at this venue. Their batting hasn’t been reliable this season. Most of their key batsmen have failed to deliver. Rajasthan Royals, a promising side that made it to the Finals a few seasons ago, has had a disappointing season. There were a few games that the Royals lost by a tiny margin, including one in the super over. Samson’s injury has also affected the overall team balance. With just 3 wins from 11 games, the Royals are out of the race for the playoffs. After a convincing win at home against the Titans, the Royals’ batting collapsed in the next game, in a similar run-chase. TEAMS PREVIEW Kolkata Knight Riders Preview Sunil Narine and Anukul Roy led KKR to a 14-run win against the mighty Capitals in their last outing at an away venue. The spinners were exceptional in delivering consistent breakthroughs while defending 204 runs. KKR need their top-order to step up and deliver big in this game. They’ve got a deep lineup with big hitters like Rinku Singh and Andre Russell in the lower order. However, without a good start, the finishers won’t have much to build on. Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Sunil Narine open the innings for the Knight Riders. Both of them have an attacking approach to their batting. On their best day, they can make a huge impact in the power play. While the decision to replace Quinton de Kock with Gurbaz doesn’t sit well with experts and analysts, the latter isn’t a bad option for the opening position. Ajinkya Rahane holds the key to a big score. He will be crucial in striking partnerships at number 3 in this batting order. Angkrish Raghuvanshi has shown great promise this year in the middle-order, but we believe he’s better suited at the top of the order. The young gun needs more freedom to play his shots, which he would find in the opener’s role. Harshit Rana, one of the best bowlers for KKR last season, hasn’t been in good form this year. Vaibhav Arora is another key wicket-taker for the hosts. Sunil Narine will be one to watch out for, along with the experienced Andre Russell, who’s got the ability to deliver crucial breakthroughs. Rajasthan Royals Preview Rajasthan Royals were off to a losing start this season. They secured back-to-back wins soon after, but their performances were always inconsistent. RR secured a win in their 4th match, and since then, they managed to win just 1 of their 7 games. In the early stages, they looked very promising, and in the middle, there were some pretty close finishes in which they ended on the losing side. Had those 3 close encounters turned out in RR’s favor, they would have been in the top 5 by now. Samson has been out of the XI with injury, and Riyan Parag is leading the side. Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s hundred broke all records as RR clinched their 3rd win of the season. However, in a similar situation at the same ground in the very next match, the Royals lost both openers early in the run chase. A collapse from there on resulted in a 100-run loss for the Royals, and they were eventually eliminated from the race to the playoffs. Nitish Rana, Riyan Parag, and Dhruv Jurel are the key middle-order batters responsible for building partnerships and taking the score beyond par. Rana’s been struggling to find his rhythm while Parag has been quite good. Parag and Jurel will be crucial for the Royals in this game and are expected to lead the batting effort in the middle order. Shimron Hetmyer is the finisher for RR and needs to come good for the team. Jofra Archer, Fazhalhaq Farooqi, and Akash Madhwal are all quality bowlers in the pace attack for the Royals. In addition, M Theekshana will be the key spinner for the side. The lack of form and consistency from the bowlers is a major concern for RR going into this match. Weather Conditions While the weather forecast is for scattered showers in Kolkata on the match day, it is likely to be partly cloudy around the match time with a high of 32 degrees Celsius. The last game here was washed out due to rain after the first innings. We don’t expect a similar fate for this one. KKR vs RR Pitch Report It is a balanced wicket at the Eden Gardens. There has been some help for the spinners historically, and in recent years, we have also seen 200+ scores. Considering the small dimensions of the ground, it becomes easier to clear the boundaries often. The average 1st innings score in the last 5 matches here is 202 runs. Anything below 200 will not be easy to defend on this ground. Toss: To Bat Teams batting first have won 3 of the 4 matches played at this venue in Kolkata. Spinners will find help at this venue in the second innings and could put the chasing team under pressure and get the upper hand in this contest. Moreover, it’s a day match, and there won’t be any due to help the chasing team.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Delhi Capitals vs Kolkata Knight Riders 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : April 29, Tuesday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 19:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ Arun Jaitley Stadium, Central Delhi, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League 2025 Capital Challenge: Delhi Set to Defend Home Turf Against Knight Riders. Delhi Capitals vs Kolkata Knight Riders TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. DC vs KKR Match Prediction & Analysis The Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) are set to face the Delhi Capitals (DC) in Match 48 of IPL 2025 on April 29 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. DC has been in impressive form this season, securing six wins out of nine matches, placing them fourth in the points table with 12 points. In contrast, KKR has faced challenges this season, managing only three wins in nine games and currently sitting seventh with seven points. DC played their last game against the Royal Challengers Bangalore. Batting first, DC scored 162 runs for the loss of 8 wickets. KL Rahul scored 41 runs off 39 deliveries. DC lost against the in-form Virat Kohli and out-of-the-box Krunal Pandya in the 19th over of the game by 6 wickets. Skipper Axar Patel took two wickets for 19. KKR’s last game got washed out because of the rain. PBKS scored 201 runs for the loss of four wickets. Rain halted the game when KKR were at seven runs in the first over. Both teams shared a point each. KKR now has three losses and a win in the last five games. This includes their historical defeat against PBKS, where PBKS defended the lowest target. In their last game against each other in the last season of the IPL, KKR managed to beat DC by 7 wickets. Batting first, Delhi scored 153 runs for the loss of nine wickets. Varun Chakravarthy picked up three wickets for 16 runs. KKR managed to chase the target with seven wickets in hand. Axar Patel took two wickets for 25. This was KKR’s second consecutive win against the Capitals. TEAMS PREVIEW Delhi Capitals Preview DC will be eager to bounce back after a recent six-wicket loss to Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB). ​Abhishek Porel will open the innings with Du Plessis. Porel has scored 253 runs at a strike rate above 150. Du Plessis is back in the squad after Fraser-McGruk failed to produce the start with Porel. Du Plessis has 103 runs in 4 games. Karun Nair will come at number three. After 88 runs against MI, Nair has scored just 41 runs in the next four games. KL Rahul will be the batter to watch out for. Rahul has 364 runs in 8 innings at an average of 60 and a strike rate of 146. With three fifties and 16 sixes in 8 innings, it looks like the old KL Rahul is back. Skipper Axar Patel will come in the middle with Tristan Stubbs and Ashutosh Varma. Axar has 189 runs with the bat at a strike rate of 156. He has failed to impress with the ball. Verma has a strike rate of 175, scoring 138 runs in 6 innings. Stubbs has scored 217 runs at an average of 54 and has a strike rate of 164. Kolkata Knight Riders Preview ​Things are not looking good for the current champions. They have just three wins in 9 games. Sunil Naraine will open the innings with Rahmanullah Gurbaz. Naraine has 151 runs at a strike rate of 175. He has also taken 7 wickets with the ball at an economy of 7.75. Skipper Ajinkya Rahane will come at number three. He is their leading run-scorer with 271 runs at a strike rate of 146. Angkrish Raghuvanshi will come in the middle with Rinku Singh, Andre Russell, and Ramandeep Singh. Raghuvanshi has an average of 40 and has scored 197 runs. Rinku Singh has managed to score 133 runs in 7 innings. Russell has yet to explode with the bat this season. He has scored just 55 runs in 6 innings. With the ball, he has claimed 7 wickets. It will be interesting to see if KKR replaces him with Moeen Ali. Varun Arora will lead the bowling attack with Harshit Rana and Varun Chakravarthy. The trio has taken 11 wickets each in 9 games. Chakravarthy will be the bowler to watch out for. He has an economy of 6.85- the lowest among the bowlers. Weather Conditions The weather at Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi is expected to be sunny on match day, with temperatures ranging between 22 and 34 degrees Celsius.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Kolkata Knight Riders vs Punjab Kings​​𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : April 26, Saturday 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 19:30 PM IST 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ Eden Gardens, Kolkata, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League, 2025 The last time Kolkata Knight Riders and Punjab Kings faced off at Eden Gardens was in IPL 2024, where Punjab beat the home side by chasing down 262 in 18.4 overs. Quetta Gladiators vs Karachi Kings TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. KKR vs PBKS Match Prediction & Analysis Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) take on Punjab Kings (PK) in the 44th match of IPL 2025 this Saturday night in Kolkata. KKR have struggled with form this season, picking up only three wins from eight games, putting them at seventh in the standings. Punjab are doing better, with five wins and three losses, holding fifth place. They’ve already taken down KKR once this year and look better placed to do it again. TEAMS PREVIEW Kolkata Knight Riders Preview It’s been a tough ride for defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders so far—just three wins in eight games, five losses, and they’re now sitting at seventh on the table. They’ve now lost back-to-back games for the first time this season, the latest being a heavy 39-run defeat to Gujarat Titans at home. The team looks worn down. The batting unit hasn’t done them any favors. Apart from skipper Ajinkya Rahane, the rest have been patchy. Quinton de Kock was replaced by Rahmanullah Gurbaz last match, but the Afghan keeper could only chip in with 1 on his season debut. Sunil Narine’s form at the top has been unpredictable, and both Venkatesh Iyer and Rinku Singh are having a hard time adjusting to the slower tracks. Andre Russell has hit a few out of the park, but overall hasn’t looked anywhere close to his usual self. Ramandeep Singh, given multiple shots, still hasn’t made any real impact. One of the few positives is Angkrish Raghuvanshi. The youngster has scored 197 runs from 7 innings, averaging 38.71 with a strike rate of 149.24. But KKR’s habit of shifting him around the order hasn’t helped with stability. The bowling has fared a bit better. Harshit Rana and Vaibhav Arora have handled the early spells decently, taking 20 wickets between them. The spin trio of Varun Chakaravarthy, Sunil Narine, and Moeen Ali have managed to apply some control through the middle overs. Russell, despite his quiet run with the bat, might still be useful with his cutters on this pitch. Punjab Kings Preview Punjab Kings are hanging in there—five wins, three losses, and they’re currently fifth. In their last game, they went down by 7 wickets at home to Royal Challengers Bengaluru, a team they had beaten away not long before. At the top, Priyansh Arya and Prabhsimran Singh have been aggressive early, but haven’t quite strung it together game after game. Shreyas Iyer has been steady at number three, piling up 263 runs from eight innings with a strike rate of 185.21. He’s looked assured and will be central to their batting again. Nehal Wadhera has chipped in nicely through the middle overs, striking at 146. His knocks haven’t been long, but they’ve come at the right moments. Josh Inglis replaced Glen Maxwell but hasn’t offered much with the bat. Given the Eden surface, Punjab may rethink that swap just for the added spin option Maxwell brings. Marcus Stoinis is hit-and-miss but dangerous when he connects. Shashank Singh has quietly done a good job closing games and can flip the momentum late. Weather Conditions Eden Gardens produced its trademark pitch last game – good for runs but with some natural slowness. Expect more of the same, with the ball gripping the pitch and batters needing to time their shots carefully. Slow bowlers should play a major role, putting extra importance on scoring freely during field restrictions. Kolkata’s weather looks partly cloudy with high humidity in the evening hours.  No rain is predicted, meaning we’ll likely see a complete 40 overs of action. Eden Gardens has produced an average first-innings score of 167 runs. During this year’s IPL, four matches have been played here with just one offering a true batting paradise – the remaining three surfaces favored slower conditions while remaining decent for scoring. Should we get another slow track like last game’s, teams will likely target 180-190 to post a competitive total. Toss: To Bat Three of the four matches played at Eden Gardens in IPL 2025 have been won by the team batting first, which clearly shows that batting first is more advantageous here.

KKR vs GT Match Prediction & Analysis Kolkata Knight Riders will take on Gujarat Titans in the 39th match of the Indian Premier League 2025 at Eden Gardens, Kolkata on 21st April 2025 at 7:30 PM. The ten-team tournament has reached the middle of the league stages with Gujarat Titans, Delhi Capitals, Punjab Kings, and Rohan Charan’s Bangalore acquiring the top four spots in that sequence. Gujarat Titans gained the first place after dethroning Delhi Capitals by defeating them in a high-scoring contest.

Punjab Kings vs Kolkata Knight Riders, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Punjab Kings vs Kolkata Knight Riders​𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : April 15, Tuesday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 19:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ Maharaja Yadavindra Singh Cricket Stadium, Chandigarh, India​𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League 2025 Shreyas Iyer is Punjab’s man in form and has a fantastic record against KKR – 456 runs in 14 matches at an average of 41.45 and a strike rate of 150.49. Punjab Kings vs Kolkata Knight Riders​ TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. PBKS vs KKR Match Prediction & Analysis Match 31 of IPL 2025 has Punjab Kings (PK) facing Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in Chandigarh this Tuesday. Punjab have dropped to sixth after losing to Sunrisers Hyderabad, but they’re still viewed as one of the more dangerous sides this season because of their batting. KKR, last year’s winners, haven’t had the easiest run either, sitting even with three wins and three losses. Punjab will hope home conditions work in their favor, though KKR have enough in the tank to make this a tough one. TEAMS PREVIEW Punjab Kings Preview Punjab Kings have had a decent run so far—three wins, two losses, and they’re sitting sixth on the table. Their last outing was a wild one, losing to Sunrisers Hyderabad by 8 wickets in a game that saw 491 runs scored. Punjab smashed 245-6 but still couldn’t drag it past the finish line, with Hyderabad chasing it down with nearly two overs to spare. That pitch in Hyderabad was an absolute belter, and Punjab won’t want to overthink that result. Up top, Priyansh Arya and Prabhsimran Singh have been doing the job early, setting the tone in the powerplay. Shreyas Iyer has been rock solid at number three, hammering 250 runs in five knocks at a strike rate of 208.33. He’s looked in complete control and will be expected to carry that form forward. That said, not everything’s been smooth. Nehal Wadhera hasn’t quite found rhythm, and Glenn Maxwell has barely made a dent this season. Their lack of runs has made the middle overs a bit of a dead zone. Bringing Josh Inglis in could give the lineup a bit more bite. Kolkata Knight Riders Preview Kolkata Knight Riders haven’t managed back-to-back wins in IPL 2025, but they’ve avoided back-to-back defeats too. After three wins and three losses, they’ve been making smart adjustments along the way to stay in the fight. Their latest result — an 8-wicket thumping of Chennai Super Kings on their turf — pushed them up to fourth in the standings. The batting unit looks settled, though Quinton de Kock’s inconsistency hasn’t helped. Narine has made up for it with explosive starts, scoring at a rate of 190. Ajinkya Rahane, batting at No. 3, has been their most reliable contributor with 204 runs in six games at a strike rate of 154.54. A smart move last game was sending Rinku Singh in at No. 4 — something they should’ve done earlier. He’s much more impactful when he has enough deliveries to work with. On the flip side, Andre Russell is still looking for rhythm with the bat, and Ramandeep Singh has barely made a mark. Venkatesh Iyer had one decent knock but hasn’t done much otherwise. Weather Conditions The pitch at Mullanpur has been excellent for batting, particularly in the first half. The ball comes on nicely to the bat, and batters can hit through the line to get their boundaries. Spinners will come into play once the pitch slows down a little in the second half, but it won’t be too dramatic.  The weather in Mullanpur will be hot and hazy, and it won’t be easy on the players. There is no forecast of rain, so we will get a full match. In the two matches played at Mullanpur in IPL 2025, teams batting first have posted 205-4 and 219-6, respectively, and won the game quite comfortably in the end. Expect another high-scoring game with the team batting first eyeing a total of around 200-210 runs. Toss: To Bat Both the previous games of IPL 2025 held at Mullanpur, Chandigarh, have been won comfortably by the team batting first. This indicates that batting first is the safer option here.
