Kolkata Knight Riders and Sunrisers Hyderabad will look to revive their IPL 2025 campaigns when they face off at Eden Gardens on Thursday. Both teams have struggled, each winning just one of their three matches. Defending champions KKR suffered a crushing defeat against Mumbai Indians, getting bowled out for just 116 runs. Meanwhile, SRH’s batting faltered in their loss to Delhi Capitals, failing to build on their opening win against Rajasthan.
With back-to-back defeats denting their momentum and net run rate, SRH aims for a strong comeback. Similarly, KKR is eager to bounce back after their poor showing against Mumbai. This marks the 15th game of the tournament, and both sides are desperate to regain form and keep their playoff hopes alive.
