Why is Sunil Narine not playing in KKR vs RR IPL 2025 match?

It's nothing but a shocker for KKR fans as Sunil Narine is not playing in today's match against Rajasthan Royals. But what is the reason behind his absence?

It’s hard for any team to leave out their MVP, but that’s exactly what KKR did as they are on the field without Sunil Narine in today’s match against Rajasthan Royals.

Initially, the KKR star was not seen during the pre-match warm-up, and Ajinkya Rahane confirmed at the toss that the Caribbean all-rounder would not be playing in this match.

But what is the reason behind his absence?

Why is Sunil Narine not playing

The reason behind Sunil Narine’s absence is that he is unwell. In fact, KKR captain Ajinkya Rahane confirmed this during the toss.

Narine, who delivered a stellar performance against RCB in the previous match, is a big miss for KKR. It is a setback for the team as they will be without his services in this crucial match. Although it’s just the start of the season for KKR, they have already lost their opening encounter, where Narine played pretty well. Now, with him not playing today, it is certainly a shocker for KKR.

“Sunil Narine is not playing, he is unwell,” KKR captain Ajinkya Rahane said at the toss on Wednesday. Rahane won the toss and opted to bowl first in Guwahati.
