Kolkata Knight Riders set a 207-run target for the Rajasthan Royals in their IPL 2025 match at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata.

 

Deciding to bat first, it wasn't a good start for Kolkata's MVP Sunil Narine on the day as he saw himself walking back to the pavilion at just 11 runs courtesy of a Yudhvir Singh delivery that outwitted him and got his stumps.

 

It was his opening partner Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Ajinkya Rahane who started to steady the ship for the hosts, putting up a 38-run partnership in the middle after which Gurbaz was dismissed by Maheesh Theekshana.

 

Rahane too got out at 30 runs. It was after this wicket that Angkrish Raghuvanshi and Andre Russell started to get some momentum back into the innings.

 

Russell brought some excitement to the fans, hitting massive sixes around the park which lifted the run rate for KKR. The duo stitched a 61-run partnership on the day which helped KKR post 206/4 in their 20 overs.

 

While Raghuvanshi (44) missed out on his 50, Russell completed his half century in just 22 deliveries and went on to score 57 runs.

 

Rinku Singh's 19-run cameo also helped in the final over to take the total across 200 on the day.

KKR skipper Ajinkya Rahane won the toss and decided to bat first against RR  Both skippers after the toss:  Ajinkya Rahane: We are going to bat first, looks a little dry. Not sure if it slows down in the second innings. We want to put a total on the board and defend it. Need to keep it simple. It's all about taking one game at a time. Everyone's contribution was good in the last game. Need to assess the conditions and adapt to it quickly. I am working really hard on my game, playing domestic has helped me a lot. Trying to enjoy my game. Moeen and Ramandeep are back in the side.  Riyan Parag: I was happy that I lost the toss, wasn't sure. It's very challenging, you got to be profession on the field. A lot of work goes into it. Need to play for our pride. Need to bring more energy into the field. We are hoping to put a collective effort. Three changes in our team. Nitish Rana has a niggle, he goes out. Hasaranga comes back.  KKR playing 11: Rahmanullah Gurbaz(w), Sunil Narine, Ajinkya Rahane(c), Angkrish Raghuvanshi, Moeen Ali, Venkatesh Iyer, Rinku Singh, Andre Russell, Ramandeep Singh, Varun Chakaravarthy, Vaibhav Arora  RR playing 11: Yashasvi Jaiswal, Vaibhav Suryavanshi, Riyan Parag(c), Kunal Singh Rathore, Dhruv Jurel(w), Shimron Hetmyer, Wanindu Hasaranga, Jofra Archer, Maheesh Theekshana, Yudhvir Singh Charak, Akash Madhwal

  With nine points from ten matches, the defending champions remain in the mix for qualification, but their fate will hinge on the outcomes of their remaining fixtures against Rajasthan Royals, Chennai Super Kings, Sunrisers Hyderabad, and Royal Challengers Bengaluru.

 

A solid 48-run stand between Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Sunil Narine at the top has given their batting order a timely boost. Ajinkya Rahane and Angrish Raghuvanshi have brought stability at No. 3 and 4, though the middle overs have occasionally lacked momentum. While Rinku Singh found some rhythm with the bat, KKR still await a trademark explosive innings from Andre Russell. With the ball, the spin trio of Narine, Varun Chakaravarthy, and Anukul Roy remains their strongest weapon, consistently applying pressure in the middle overs.

 

Meanwhile, with only six points from 11 games, Rajasthan Royals are out of the playoff race and will aim to disrupt KKR’s push for the top four by playing spoiler in this clash.  Moeen Ali ahead of the clash: We know what we have to do, we need to win all our games. It's a big game today. They are a really good side and they have some brilliant players. We are looking forward to it. He (Rahane) is good, but he will hide somewhere in the field (due to the injury), that means I will be somewhere in the hotspot today. You need to keep yourself on the top of your game and need to keep practising well. They told me at the start that I will play certain games, depending on the wickets. You have to take it in your stride and try to be as professional as you can. When are left-handers in the opposition you have more chances of playing as an off-spinner. We have two of the best T20 spinners with us, so difficult to break into that side. They (Jaiswal and Suryavanshi) are talented young players, so it's going to be challenge for us. We also have some world class players in our side, so we are ready for it.
