Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) will host Rajasthan Royals (RR) in match no. 56 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 on the Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Thursday. Both KKR and RR have equivalent 10 factors from 11 matches to date and must win on Thursday evening to maintain their Playoff hopes alive.
Last 12 months’s finalists Rajasthan Royals, led by Sanju Samson, have been on a downward slide in their final 5 matches – dropping 4 of these video games, together with the final three matches on the trot. RR must arrest this slid instantly in the event that they hope to qualify for the IPL 2023 Playoffs stage.
Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan-owned KKR have had a roller-coaster journey in IPL 2023 to date. However, they are going to be boosted by a five-wicket win over Punjab Kings earlier this week after a hard-fought win over Sunrisers Hyderabad final week.
The Royals shall be boosted by the return of their tempo spearhead Trent Boult, who missed their final match towards Sunrisers Hyderabad in which they didn’t defend 214 runs at house.
