Kolkata, April 25, Thursday at 08:00 PM IST

Kolkata Knight Riders will be eyeing to return to top four spots when they host Rajasthan Royals at their backyard in Eden Gardens tonight. Kolkata Knight Riders have slipped to fifth consecutive loss and need a couple of quick wins to resurrect their campaign. In ten games played so far, KKR has four wins and six defeats.

Rajasthan Royals, on the opposite, can’t afford a single defeat as it can cost them the playoffs spot. In ten games, RR has secured three wins and need to secure a win to stay alive in the competition.

Both the teams are coming after facing a defeat in their previous encounter and would be desperate for a win. The clash will begin at 08:00 PM IST.

The last time we played KKR, the skipper scored a 59-ball 73* ??@stevesmith49 will be looking to complete a hat-trick of 50s come tomorrow! #HallaBol pic.twitter.com/I4krrEqgQl
