Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) will clash with Chennai Super Kings (CSK) on May 7 at the Eden Gardens, Kolkata, in match 57 of IPL 2025. While CSK have been eliminated from the race to playoffs, KKR still have a chance of qualifying.
KKR won their previous game against the Rajasthan Royals (RR) by just one run. It was a last-over thriller which turned out to be in their favour. With that victory behind, they will have to make use of the momentum and continue to win their remaining matches as their playoff qualification hopes hang by a thread.
Meanwhile, CSK lost a last-over thriller by two runs against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in Bengaluru. They batted well while chasing a stiff target of 214 but failed to close the game as Yash Dayal defended 15 runs off the final over. This has been a forgettable season for the Super Kings as they are at the bottom of the points table and will come out to play only for pride.
