TEAMS PREVIEW
Kolkata Knight Riders Preview
Kolkata Knight Riders have struggled to string together good performances this season. They suffered two heavy defeats but managed a win against a Rajasthan Royals side that has been far from convincing. Their most recent outing saw them crumble against Mumbai Indians, losing by eight wickets at Wankhede. Batting first, they collapsed for just 117 on a pitch that had plenty to offer. Mumbai made light work of the chase, wrapping things up in only 12.5 overs.
Such a heavy defeat is bound to leave the team rattled, and bouncing back won’t be easy. Their biggest concern is their shaky batting lineup. If Quinton de Kock departs early, the rest of the order doesn’t inspire much confidence. Sunil Narine is yet to settle into his opening role, while Venkatesh Iyer, Rinku Singh, and Andre Russell have struggled for form.
Angkrish Raghuvanshi has shown promise, but his quickfire knocks need to translate into bigger scores, especially with others failing to deliver.
Meanwhile, KKR’s bowling has looked sharper. Narine and Varun Chakaravarthy remain key threats in the middle overs. Narine’s numbers at Eden Gardens—71 wickets in 60 games at an economy of 6.33—speak for themselves.
In the pace attack, Spencer Johnson, Vaibhav Arora, and Harshit Rana may not be the most high-profile names in the league, but they’ve stepped up when called upon and have made their presence felt.
KKR Over/Under Betting Tips
Raghuvanshi is the sole batter to score over 20 runs in all the three games for KKR this season. He has scored 78 runs in three matches and has been a reliable batter in the middle order. We back Raghuvanshi to continue his good run of form and score over 24 runs.
Rahane has scores of 11, 18 & 56 in the season. He has got off to starts in the last two games, but failed to convert. At Eden Gardens, Rahane has scored 287 runs in 12 matches and also has a very good record against SRH (478 runs in 21 matches).
Kolkata Knight Riders Predicted Playing XI:
Quinton de Kock (wk), Sunil Narine, Ajinkya Rahane (c), Venkatesh Iyer, Rinku Singh, Andre Russell, Ramandeep Singh , Spencer Johnson, Harshit Rana, Vaibhav Arora, Varun Chakaravarthy Impact Player: Angkrish Raghuvanshi

Sunrisers Hyderabad Preview
Sunrisers Hyderabad made a fiery start to the season, smashing their way past opponents with fearless batting. But that same aggressive mindset has cost them in back-to-back losses, where their much-hyped lineup fell short. This team is a double-edged sword—one day, they’ll blast their way to 240+, and the next, they’ll collapse under their own attacking intent.
Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma hold the key to SRH’s chances. A strong powerplay start from the two is essential for the team's chances, and while Abhishek has been out of form in the last three games, he’s too talented to keep failing. He’s due for a solid knock, and we’re backing him to put up at least 30 runs here at a 200+ strike rate.
Nitish Kumar Reddy and Heinrich Klaasen could also be game-changers on this wicket. Both take a few deliveries to get in, but can shift gears quickly once set. Another big positive for SRH has been Aniket Verma. His quickfire 36 (13) and 74 (41) in the last two matches show he’s turning into a lethal lower-order finisher.
On the bowling side, Mohammed Shami and Pat Cummins need to step up and find their rhythm early. They haven’t been as effective as expected, leaking runs at crucial moments. Adam Zampa, who is usually dependable, has struggled with his lengths. However, young leg-spinner Zeeshan Ansari impressed in the last game and could be an x-factor on the Eden Gardens surface.
Harshal Patel has been the only consistent performer, using his slower deliveries and cutters to keep things in check. If SRH wants to turn things around, their attack needs to tighten up fast.
SRH Over/Under Betting Tips
Barring the 24 runs against Rajasthan Royals, Abhishek Sharma has struggled to score runs in the last two games, which has had an impact on his team's success. The left hander has scored 64 runs in 2 matches at Eden Gardens. We back him to get back to his usual best and score over 24 runs in today's match against KKR.
Sunrisers Hyderabad Predicted Playing XI:
Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma, Ishan Kishan, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Heinrich Klaasen (wk), Aniket Verma, Abhinav Manohar, Pat Cummins (c), Zeeshan Ansari, Harshal Patel, Mohammed Shami Impact Player: Adam Zampa/ Wiaan Mulder

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS
Weather Conditions
The pitch at the Eden Gardens has been a subject of much debate over the last few days. In the season opener, we got see a really good batting wicket here with something in it for the bowlers as well. KKR, however, are miffed at the curators for not creating a slow pitch that assists their spinners. We might get to see a slower Eden pitch this time given the pressure the groundstaff are under. A belter will play into SRH’s hands.
The weather in Kolkata will be slightly warm but cool in the evening.

High Turn
Eden Gardens typically sees an average first-innings score of 167, but last season the venue witnessed eight totals crossing the 200-run mark, showing a shift towards higher-scoring games. The pitch is likely to remain favorable for batters this time around with some help for the pacers and spinners. However, with the ground’s shorter boundaries, teams batting first will aim for a target in the range of 190-200 runs.
Total Over/Under Betting Tips
We are backing the home team, KKR to win the coin toss in today's match.
The last match played at Eden Gardens was a moderate scoring one, where the total match score was 351. KKR are struggling to find consistency, on the other hand SRH top three haven't quite clicked toghter as a unit. Expect a stciky wicket that favours the spinners and we predict it to be a moderate scoring game and the total match score under 384 runs.
Toss: To Bowl
Chasing is usually the preferred option at Eden Gardens as we saw in the first game how RCB comfortably chased down a target of 175 in 16.2 overs against KKR.
KKR vs SRH
Winning Prediction
Both Kolkata Knight Riders and Sunrisers Hyderabad are in desperate need of a win to get their season back on track. KKR, last year's champions, have hit rock bottom after a crushing defeat in their last match. Their batting lineup was exposed, and it's uncertain whether they can fix those issues in time. SRH, on the other hand, won’t abandon their aggressive style despite back-to-back losses. Their batting firepower is too strong to falter for a third straight game, and with KKR’s confidence shaken, SRH seem better positioned to take control of this matchup. If KKR get Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma, and Henrich Klassen early, they will coast to a win. If not, SRH will take their revenge for the IPL 2024 final loss.
Back Sunrisers Hyderabad as the winners of this match.
