The 53rd match of IPL 2025 will be played between Kolkata Knight Riders and Rajasthan Royals (KKR vs RR) at Eden Gardens, Kolkata. This match will start on 04 May at 3:30 pm. At the same time, the toss of this match will be at 3 pm. The Rajasthan team can spoil Kolkata’s game in this match. The team led by Ajinkya Rahane has won 4 out of 10 matches, and one of their matches was canceled due to rain. With 9 points, Kolkata’s team is currently in the 7th position in the points table. If Kolkata has to reach the playoffs, then they will have to win every match from here. On the other hand, if we talk about the Rajasthan Royals, then their team is out of the playoff race. RR’s team is currently at number eight with 3 wins in 11 matches.
This match is very important for the Kolkata Knight Riders in terms of the playoffs. In such a situation, captain Rahane can be seen making a big change in his playing XI for this match. Hard-hitting opener cricketer Quinton de Kock may return to the final 11. If this happens, Rahmanullah Gurbaz may have to sit out. Apart from this, there are not many changes in the KKR team. Rinku Singh’s form is a matter of concern for the team. He has failed to make an impression this season. In such a situation, Rinku Singh will be desperate to play a big innings in this match.
Quinton de Kock, Sunil Narine, Ajinkya Rahane, Venkatesh Iyer, Rinku Singh, Angkrish Raghuvanshi, Andre Russell, Moeen Ali, Harshit Rana, Anukul Roy, Varun Chakraborty.
Talking about the Rajasthan Royals, captain Sanju Samson may return. He has been out of the last 4 matches due to injury. In his place, Vaibhav Suryavanshi came to support Yashasvi Jaiswal. If Sanju comes back to the team after getting fit, then it will be very interesting to see who will be out in his place. Apart from this, the team can also try its bench strength. Quena Mphaka can be given a chance in place of Fazalhaq Farooqui.
Yashasvi Jaiswal, Vaibhav Suryavanshi / Sanju Samson, Nitish Rana, Riyan Parag (Captain), Dhruv Jurel (Wicketkeeper), Shimron Hetmyer, Jofra Archer, Mahesh Theekshana, Kumar Karthikeya, Akash Madhwal, Quena Mphaka
