The Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Gujarat Titans (GT) are set to face off in Match 39 of IPL 2025 at Eden Gardens, Kolkata, today, April 21. This highly anticipated clash sees Ajinkya Rahane’s KKR looking to bounce back after a disappointing loss to Punjab Kings, while Shubman Gill’s GT aims to extend their dominance at the top of the points table.
KKR has struggled with consistency this season, sitting seventh on the points table with six points from eight matches. Their batting lineup, featuring Quinton de Kock, Sunil Narine, and Rinku Singh, has been underwhelming, but their bowling attack, led by Varun Chakravarthy and Harshit Rana, has shown promise. Meanwhile, GT has been in formidable form, securing five wins from seven matches, thanks to stellar performances from Jos Buttler, Sai Sudharsan, and Rashid Khan.
Eden Gardens pitch report and conditions
The Eden Gardens pitch is expected to favor batters, offering good bounce and pace, while pacers might get some early assistance. The skipper winning the toss might want to have a bowl first and chase the total later on in the match. The weather forecast suggests partly cloudy skies with no significant threat of rain.
