In their next game, the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) will play the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the ongoing IPL 2025 campaign. On Wednesday, May 7, both teams will play their 57th match at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata. With five victories from their last eleven games, the Kolkata Knight Riders are now sixth in the standings.
They are confident going into this match because they defeated the Rajasthan Royals by just one run in an exciting match that included a crucial knock from Andre Russell. With just two victories from their eleven games, the Chennai Super Kings are still at the bottom of the ladder. Despite a heroic 94-run effort from Ayush Mhatre, they recently lost to Royal Challengers Bengaluru by a mere 2 runs.

Eden Gardens Pitch Report:
It is anticipated that the Eden Gardens pitch will be a close match. The even grass cover this season has made it difficult for spinners, but it has aided seamers early on with swing and bounce. Dew might be crucial in the second inning. Although slow bowlers found success and grip in the previous game played here, the pitch is predicted to favour batters more this time. After winning the toss, the winning side may decide to bat first and score a high total.
