Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) will host Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in match 15 of the IPL 2025 season. The highly-awaited contest will be staged at the iconic Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Thursday, April 3 and the action will commence from 7:30 PM IST.
KKR, also the season’s defending champions, is placed at the bottom of the 10-team IPL 2025 points table for suffering two huge defeats to RCB and Mumbai Indians. Ajinkya Rahane and co. did manage to sneak in a comprehensive eight-wicket win in between against the Rajasthan Royals in Guwahati. As of now, their NRR reads a dismal -1.428.
Sunrisers Hyderabad, on the other hand, is ranked eighth on the standings, despite securing as many wins from as many games as the KKR. The ‘Orange Army’ finds itself higher on the table courtesy of their slightly superior NRR of -0.871.
Ahead of their upcoming IPL 2025 showdown, here is a look at the scorecard from the previous encounter between these two teams. Notably, their previous duel also happened to be the high-octane final of the IPL 2024 season.
