DATE: Apr 26, 2024
TIME: 19:30 IST / 14:00 GMT
VENUE: Eden Gardens – Kolkata, India
TOURNAMENT: IPL 2024
On the other hand, Punjab Kings find themselves on the wrong end of the spectrum. Having played eight games in the tournament, Punjab have only registered wins in two matches and lost the remaining six. They find themselves in ninth place in the standings and will hope that the clash against KKR can turn their fortunes around.
Pitch Report:
The surface at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata is one that is quite preferable by the batters. With little help from the bowlers, a high scoring encounter could be quite possible on such a surface as well. Opting to bat first and posting a big total on the board could be a wise decision.
KKR vs PBKS Probable Playing XIs
Kolkata Knight Riders:
Sunil Narine, Phil Salt (WK), Angkrish Raghuvanshi, Venkatesh Iyer, Shreyas Iyer (C), Rinku Singh, Ramandeep Singh, Andre Russell, Mitchell Starc, Harshit Rana, Varun Chakravarthy

Probable Best Players of the Match
Probable Best Batter: Sunil Narine
Kolkata Knight Riders’ Sunil Narine could be the best batter in the upcoming clash against Punjab Kings. With 286 runs in seven matches, Narine has been in brilliant form, and having scored a century recently, Narine’s performance as KKR’s opener could be key against PBKS.
Probable Best Bowler: Harshal Patel
Punjab Kings’ Harshal Patel could be the best bowler in the upcoming game against KKR. With 13 wickets in eight games, Harshal Patel is the joint-highest wicket-taker of the tournament, and his spell could be influential against the two-time champions.
