KKR and MI go head to head in Kolkata on Saturday, May 11 in the reverse fixture. The match starts at 7.30 pm IST and is the final game at Eden Gardens in Kolkata. The two teams last played at Eden Gardens back in 2019 with KKR beating MI by 34 runs.

KKR defeated MI in their previous game at the Wankhede for the first time in 12 years. They are on a three-match winning streak against DC, MI, and LSG heading into this game. They have looked the best team at least in the second half of the season with everything clicking for them as a side.

Mumbai Indians, on the other hand, are heading into this game on the back of a win against Sunrisers Hyderabad. In the process, they have ended their four-match losing streak and have moved up the points table to the ninth position. 

KKR can secure their playoff spot with a win against Mumbai Indians. Rajasthan Royals losing to Delhi Capitals meant that KKR are still topping the points table and can become the first team to make the playoffs. They would ideally like to finish in the top two which would ensure them two bites at the cherry.
