IPL 2025: KKR vs SRH Head-to-Head Records- Match 15

The previous KKR vs SRH fixture, which took place at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata during the previous edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL), saw the Kolkata Knight Riders become the champions for the third time as they defeated the Sunrisers Hyderabad in the final. That will be a huge advantage for the home side on April 03, 2025.

Sunrisers Hyderabad has been excellent with the bat in the first six overs of the innings, thanks to Travis Head. But because they keep on losing wickets regularly in the powerplay overs, this has put pressure on the middle order. Abhishek Sharma has struggled in three successive games.

Between the seventh and 15th over of the inning, the 2016 champions have clubbed 264 runs in three innings at an average of 33 and a strike rate of 162.96, the fourth most among all ten franchises.

In doing so, they lost eight wickets in the period, the third most of the event. The good thing for the side is that despite those wickets, they never dropped down the aggressive batting. But they hope to develop the show in the KKR vs SRH encounter,

In the case of the Kolkata Knight Riders, they have struggled in all three games of the powerplay in the 2025 season. Across three innings, they have smashed just 211 runs at an average of just 19.18 and a strike rate of 130.25, the fourth-lowest among all ten franchises.

The defending champions have lost 11 wickets in the period so far, the most of all the sides. Last year, Sunil Narine and Phil Salt put up a strong opening partnership to lay down the winning platform for the franchise. Before the KKR vs SRH fixture, all eyes will be on Quinton de Kock to offer them an aggressive start alongside Sunil Narine.
