KKR vs PBKS Match Preview:
The iconic Eden Gardens will host a gripping IPL 2025 encounter between KKR and PBKS. KKR, led by Ajinkya Rahane, are eager to rebound after a shocking defeat earlier this season, where they failed to chase PBKS’s record-low 111 in Mullanpur. Sunil Narine’s spin and Rahane’s explosive batting will be pivotal, especially on a batting-friendly pitch.
Meanwhile, PBKS, captained by Shreyas Iyer, KKR’s 2024 title-winning skipper, enter with confidence. Iyer’s aggressive batting combined with KKR’s spinners, Narine and Varun Chakravarthy, give PBKS an edge. Yuzvendra Chahal’s 4/28 in the previous meeting exposed KKR’s spin woes, and PBKS will bank on his ability again. Keeping the visitor’ form in mind, they are a slight favourite to win.
