Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) will face Rajasthan Royals (RR) in the 53rd match of IPL 2025 on 4 May 2025, at Eden Gardens, Kolkata. This article will guide you in making the perfect team for KKR vs RR match with expert Dream11 predictions and fantasy cricket tips.
Kolkata Knight Riders face a crucial stretch in IPL 2025 as they prepare for back-to-back home games at Eden Gardens, where their form has been unexpectedly poor. With three losses and one no result from four matches in Kolkata this season, KKR’s once-formidable home advantage has faded—marked by curator disagreements and repeated misreads of pitch conditions.
Coming off a morale-boosting away win over Delhi Capitals, led by Sunil Narine’s brilliance, KKR will look to carry that momentum into must-win fixtures. Their playoff hopes now hinge on defeating already-eliminated sides RR and CSK at home.
Meanwhile, Rajasthan Royals have endured an inconsistent season, failing to capitalize on individual brilliance like 14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s century. Despite showing flashes of promise, close losses to Delhi and Lucknow have derailed their campaign. Under Rahul Dravid’s return to franchise coaching, RR find themselves out of contention but with a chance to play spoilers.
