IPL 2026: KKR vs RR Playing 11, live toss and match time, streaming

The caravan of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 has returned to Kolkata’s iconic Eden Gardens, with the hosts Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) looking to finally win their first game of the season against in-form Rajasthan Royals (RR). RR skipper Riyan Parag won the toss for the match and invited Ajinkya Rahane-led KKR to bowl first.

 

So far this season, nothing has gone in KKR’s favour; they have played six matches and suffered five straight losses alongside one abandoned match vs Punjab Kings (PBKS). However, their most expensive buy of the season, Cameron Green, has finally found form, and with pacer Matheesha Pathirana expected to return, KKR will fancy their chances of turning their fate around.

 

On the other hand, RR suffered a big loss against SRH in their last game after starting their season with four consecutive wins. However, in the SRH game, except for the first three overs of batting, where they were reduced to 9 for 5, everything else went in their favour, as even in that match they managed to reach 159.

 

Despite both teams coming off a loss in their last game, RR will be the clear favourites in this game, with four more wins than KKR in their account.
