KKR vs LSG: A Rivalry Renewed Amidst Rusty Starts

The Kolkata Knight Riders and Lucknow Super Giants face off at the iconic Eden Gardens, a contest that embodies the unique rivalry between a football club and a cricket team. The teams are vying for momentum, with both struggling to find their footing in the Indian Premier League.

The batting department is a major concern for both teams, with KKR's openers lacking power-starts and LSG relying heavily on Sunil Narine and Quinton de Kock. Rishabh Pant, LSG's captain, has struggled to regain his form, scoring only 19 runs in three outings this season.

The pitch at Eden Gardens is expected to be slow, with the ball holding up well. Shahbaz Ahmed, an LSG all-rounder, believes that slower bowlers will receive assistance, while Ottis Gibson, KKR's assistant coach, hopes that the surface will play similarly to the last game, providing a benefit for his team.

When: Tuesday, April 8, 2025, 3.30 PM
Where: Eden Gardens, Kolkata
Head-to-Head: LSG leads 3-2, but the teams have been 1-1 at Eden Gardens.
