While KKR have had a topsy-turvy campaign thus far, GT are in great form. The Titans have won five games, including the last one against DC. They gunned down the 204-run target with seven wickets in hand.
KKR, meanwhile, are returning to action after their 95-run debacle against PBKS earlier last week. They failed to chase the below-par 111 runs in Mullanpur.
So this game against GT is important for the Knight Riders to jump up on the points table.
That said, here’s Kolkata’s pitch and weather report for the KKR vs GT match in IPL 2025.
