Head to Head
RR are simply the better side and have won three of their last four at this venue. Back them at the price.
KKR lead the all-time series 16-14 across 32 meetings but RR have won their last three at Eden Gardens and are unbeaten here since 2018. KKR have just one point from six games, have lost five in a row and are without Pathirana again. Their batting showed some fight against GT with Green finally finding form, but just one contribution from all-rounder across six games is really not paying the bills.
RR were blown apart in Hyderabad, reduced to 5/9 in the powerplay chasing 217 in what was a freak collapse rather than a structural problem. Sooryavanshi has 200 runs at a strike rate of 263 this season and Jaiswal has smashed the fastest fifty in IPL history at this venue. The spin matchup is the key variable, with Narine having kept Hetmyer at a strike rate of 102 and Jadeja below 90, but RR’s top order has the firepower to set up a total that KKR’s fragile batting cannot chase.
Take the visitors to continue KKR’s miserable run.
Best Bet
Jaiswal has 184 runs this season and holds the record for the fastest fifty in IPL history at Eden Gardens, in just 13 balls. KKR’s bowling attack is depleted and demoralised and on a flat afternoon surface that has produced high scores, he is the standout pick in the match.
Value Bet
Sooryavanshi has 200 runs at a strike rate of 263 this season and has hit scores of 52, 78 and 26-ball 47 in his last three completed innings. Against a KKR bowling attack that is winless, short on confidence and missing Pathirana, this looks a more than fair price.
