Match Overview
Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) continue their ongoing IPL 2025 campaign by locking horns with Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Thursday, April 3. Notably, this is a rematch of the previous yearโs final, which KKR won by eight wickets, to lift their third title. However, this season, the story so far has been different, with both the previous edition’s finalists at the bottom of the table.
KKR, which is being led by Ajinkya Rahane, suffered a disappointing seven-wicket loss to Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the season opener. They bounced back well in their next against the Rajasthan Royals, courtesy of Quinton de Kock’s unbeaten 97. However, their last game against arch-rivals Mumbai Indians witnessed the visitors suffering a batting collapse and getting bundled out for a mere 116, which the home team chased down with ease.
Similarly, SRH too has had a start-stop season so far. They had a brilliant opening game against the Royals, smashing 286 runs and winning the game by 44 runs. However, following that, their results have gone south as they lost both of their previous two games to Lucknow Super Giants and Delhi Capitals, respectively.

KKR vs SRH Probable Best Performers
Probable Best Batter: Travis Head
SRH’s dependable opener,ย Travis Headย He could be the batter to watch out for in the game against Kolkata Knight Riders. Despite SRH losing two games in a row, Head has looked in decent touch with 136 runs in three games at an average ofย 45.33 and a strike rate ofย 191.54. The southpaw who will enjoy batting at the Eden will look to go all guns blazing in the powerplay and give a good start to his side.
Ajinkya Rahane’s key weapon against the Hyderabad team would be right-arm pacer Harshit Rana. The 23-year-old has picked up just two wickets in three games, but has made sure to hit those crucial lengths. With the defending champions searching for a desperate win, Rana’s bowling will be important with the new ball and death overs.ย
