Having gone winless in their first six games of IPL 2026, Ajinkya Rahane’s KKR experienced a change in fortunes by winning four consecutive matches to stay mathematically alive in the race for the top four. However, following a six-wicket loss to Royal Challengers Bengaluru in Raipur, KKR find themselves in concerning territory again. The side now needs to win their last three games, which would take them to 15 points, not enough for direct qualification but sufficient to give them an outside shot at the top four. Meanwhile, for Shubman Gill’s GT, their ambition is to seize the top-two spot, which would grant them two chances to make it to the title clash. A victory over KKR in Kolkata would make the Gujarat …

Delhi Capitals (DC) vs Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) IPL 2026 Playing 11 Today Match, Squad, Players List: In a must-win clash for both sides in the Indian Premier League 2026, the Delhi Capitals host the Kolkata Knight Riders at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi on Friday. Delhi’s season has gone from bad to worse, having lost six of their last eight matches. The side began with two back-to-back wins to open their IPL 2026 campaign but now finds itself stranded in seventh place on the points table with 8 points from 10 matches. Their performance at home has been especially demoralising. After winning their opening fixture at the Kotla, the Capitals have lost four straight home games. While KL Rahul has been in fantastic form at times for Delhi, the inconsistency of the collective batting unit has cost them dearly. Skipper Axar Patel has also been out of form and has failed miserably with the bat this season. Delhi could look to someone like Abishek Porel in the top order. The wicketkeeper-batter has …

Kolkata Knight Riders keep playoffs race alive but Varun Chakaravarthy and Sunil Narine have to keep delivering | Cricket News

Coming into IPL 2026, Kolkata Knight Riders’ bowling was hampered by injuries with Harshit Rana, Akash Deep and Matheesha Pathirana all missing in action or ruled out for the entirety of the season. The laundry list of injuries forced the 2024 champions to rely on replacements and inexperienced bowlers. What also went against them was the struggles of their spin twins Varun Chakaravarthy and Sunil Narine which left them winless after the first six games of the season. The side’s poor run coincided with Chakaravarthy’s form leaving the mystery spinner wicketless in his first three games before he sat out the next couple of games due to an injury. After returning to the team on April 17 vs Gujarat Titans, Chakaravarthy looked to have found his rhythm again, picking up his first wicket of the season and finishing the game with figures of 2/32. Although Kolkata lost the game, the signs of improvement were there for everyone to see. Chakaravarthy followed it up with a magical spell of 3/14 against the Rajasthan Royals at home …

Pat Cummins: I’m going to live life Pat Cummins has never thought of himself as a leader. “I think for most of my life I’ve always been the youngest person in the room. I never really felt like a leader at all,” he told Elizabeth Day on her podcast How to Fail. Then Australia asked him to captain the Test side in November 2021. Then he won the World Test Championship. Then the 2023 ODI World Cup. Then SRH handed him their IPL franchise and he turned them into one of the most watchable teams in the tournament’s history, liberating a batting order that had forgotten it was allowed to swing. Abhishek Sharma, the main beneficiary of what followed, put it plainly on the YouTube show Breakfast with Champions: “Marte hue out hona chahiye, darte hue nahi. I am fine with the team being 100 all out, but I don’t want safe scores of 160 or 170.” That was Cummins speaking through Sharma. The captain who didn’t seek the role, expressing it through the batter …

Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Kolkata Knight Riders Playing 11 Prediction, Full Squad, Players List, Captain

IPL 2026, Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) vs Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) Playing 11, Full Squad, Players List: Sunrisers Hyderabad, who are on a roll after winning 5 back to back matches, will take on laggards Kolkata Knight Riders who are aiming to find their feet after winning their last two matches, breaking a streak of losing their first 6 matches. All eyes will be on if the Knight Riders bring in Sri Lanka pacer Matheesha Pathirana into a team that have just started winning. In case they bring in the speedster, they will be forced to drop one of their overseas players with Rovman Powell likely to be ousted. In a batting lineup which has failed to fire this season, it is highly unlikely that KKR will go for that option against a free scoring Hyderabad. That would mean that Pathirana might have to wait a little longer to make his KKR debut. Hyderaabd, meanwhile, are unlikely to tamper with the combination that has helped them defeat the likes of Rajasthan Royals twice, Chennai Super Kings, …

Kolkata Knight Riders vs Lucknow Super Giants goes into Super Over after scores tied | Cricket News

3 min readUpdated: Apr 26, 2026 11:39 PM IST Kolkata Knight Riders and Lucknow Super Giants match went to a Super Over after Kartik Tyagi failed to defend 17 runs off the last over. Tyagi bowled two beamers which brought LSG right back into the match before he gave KKR a glimpse of hope with Himmat Singh’s wicket. With 7 runs off 1 ball and Mohammad Shami on strike, things looked rosy for KKR but the Bengal bowler slapped the last ball for a six to save LSG’s skins and drag the match to the Super Over. Earlier, Lucknow Super Giants pacer Mohsin Khan added another sordid chapter to Kolkata Knight Riders’ batting woes, taking five wickets to restrict the three-time champions to a modest 155 for seven on Sunday. Mohsin’s 5 for 23, a personal best for the left-arm pacer in this format, tore apart an already struggling KKR batting unit, as he snaffled the cream wickets of Ajinkya Rahane, Tim Seifert, Cameron Green, Rovman Powell and Anukul Roy. Rinku Singh (83 not out, …

(Photo: AP) IPL 2026 LSG vs KKR Live Cricket Score, Lucknow Super Giants vs Kolkata Knight Riders Playing 11 Today Match Updates: Kolkata Knight Riders travel to Lucknow to take on Lucknow Super Giants in what is a brawl between the league’s two bottom-placed teams. Kolkata Knight Riders have lots to figure out after one win from seven games this season. Lucknow too find themselves in a struggle to resuscitate their season which started very brightly after they won two of their first three matches. But LSG have lost four games in a row now and are in a struggle to keep their season alive. With the kind of seasons their teams are having, there has been some scrutiny of the captains of both teams, KKR’s Ajinkya Rahane and Lucknow’s Rishabh Pant. The pitch at Lucknow’s Ekana Stadium has a track record for being treacherous for batters, which has led to an average first-innings score of just 155 only in IPL …
