The superstar was spotted cheering for the team at the top of his voice with his son Abram and daughter Suhana Khan. Bollywood actress Ananya Panday is also in attendance at the game. Winning the toss, KKR captain Shreyash Iyer chose to bowl first and made a not-so-good start to the game.
This year, SRK has made several visits to cricket fields to cheer his side. On March 23, he was seen at Eden Gardens cheering on the Knight Riders during their opening match against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Later, on April 3, he celebrated another Knight Riders triumph over the Delhi Capitals (DC) in Visakhapatnam. Following the victory, he walked onto the pitch to congratulate his team.

KKR aim to bounce back to winning ways
Led by Shreyas Iyer, the team has enjoyed success this season, claiming three victories in four matches. Their IPL 2024 started with a win against Sunrisers Hyderabad, followed by wins over Royal Challengers Bangalore and Delhi Capitals. However, their winning streak was halted by a resounding 7-wicket loss to Chennai Super Kings at Chepauk.
KKR’s recent defeat to CSK exposed their vulnerability, particularly their dependence on Sunil Narine and Andre Russell. In the previous match, both Narine (27) and Russell (10) struggled with the bat, resulting in a below-par total of 137/9. While KKR holds the upper hand at Eden Gardens, LSG is not prepared to concede easily.
