Kolkata Knight RidersThe reigning champions, had harm in their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025. With only three victories on their eight games, the last of which came against Gujarat Titans in match 39, the Knight Riders certainly need a dramatic return to win ways to continue to the playoffs for the defense of the title.
The main concern for KKR was their striker. Quinton de Kock started well, but lost contact in the following games. He was replaced by Rahmanullah Gurbaz for the GT tie, who also could not impress. Ajinkya Rahane and Angkrish Raghuvanshi looked in Great Nick, however, firepower in the middle order – Ramandeep Singh, Rinku Singh and Andre Russell have not yet really shown their potential, and the bowling coach Dwayne Bravo Feels that unity seems to have lost confidence.
“IPL is a difficult tournament. And when you do not start well, the drummers are entering a period when they are losing confidence. And that’s what is going on right now. We must simply support them, and I hope they come well,” said Bravo during the post-match press conference, as quoted by Cricbuzz.
“Russell is an experienced player. He is a prosperous player. Just a few games, the legs have taken him out. But I don’t think we really had the team that has hit properly. So it’s reality. Russell is not the only one to struggle for the moment.

Playing the gardens of Eden in the hometown, the franchise based in Kolkata lost the match with a huge 39 -point margin against the Shubman gill-Teled side. There has already been a lot of controversies around the debates between KKR, the pitch curator Sujan Mukherjee on the site, however, the Trinidadian refrained from blaming the Eden bridge. Rather, he said that the two teams play on the same counter, and the one who plays better, wins.
“Nothing is with the counter. The guys who beat in the first three, they both mark half a century.
