Team Analysis

KKR Analysis

Third place Kolkata Knight Riders, who have played four matches, have shown glimpses of brilliance by winning two of them.

Their batting lineup has done the job under pressure, but they want to build some momentum and attempt consistency in both batting and bowling to climb the rankings.

LSG Analysis

Currently, Lucknow Super Giants are placed sixth and have won two of their four matches.

Even though their bowling unit has done well in crucial moments, their middle order needs to be fortified, and they need to win their third game to stay in the race for the playoffs.

Pitch Analysis

Eden Gardens in Kolkata serves up a pitch that delights batters with its consistent bounce and quick outfield.

The ball comes onto the bat nicely, encouraging fluent stroke play right from the start.

Seamers may find some early movement, but the wicket generally flattens out, providing minimal assistance for spinners as the match wears on.

The lush outfield further aids run-scoring, and dew tends to influence second-innings bowling. With an average first-innings total of 202, this venue often produces high-scoring thrillers.
