MUMBAI: The Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) have yet to find their rhythm in the 2025 edition of the Indian Premier League, with inconsistency plaguing their campaign. Led by Ajinkya Rahane, the side has been unable to capitalize on opportunities, particularly due to underwhelming performances with the bat. Their aggressive batting strategy has repeatedly fallen short, leaving them without a reliable plan B.

Following their recent defeat to Gujarat Titans, KKR mentor Dwayne Bravo didn’t mince words, citing a lack of confidence among the batters as a major concern. With the team now in a do-or-die situation, every remaining fixture is essentially a knockout if they hope to secure a playoff spot.
A significant shift in the lineup saw Rahmanullah Gurbaz replacing an out-of-form Quinton de Kock. Meanwhile, footage of Manish Pandey training in the nets with captain Rahane has sparked speculation about his potential return to the playing XI.
Next, KKR will face the Punjab Kings, who had previously restricted them to a meager 112 in Chandigarh. The Knights now begin their fightback, with Ponting's Punjab standing in their way.
