RR VS KKR, IPL 2025 Live Updates: Rajasthan Royals (RR) will be locking horns with Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the sixth match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 at the Barsapara Stadium in Guwahati on March 26, Wednesday. Both teams sustained heavy losses in their opening matches of the IPL 2025 and will look to seal their first win in the cash-rich league. As of now, the Kolkata-based franchise has played in a total of 30 matches against Rajasthan where the defending champions have won 14 games. Rajasthan Royals on the other hand have also won 14 matches while one game did not give the result and the other one got abandoned.
Rajasthan Royals: Riyan Parag (c), Sanju Samson, Shubham Dubey, Shimron Hetmyer, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Dhruv Jurel, Nitish Rana, Kunal Singh Rathore, Vaibhav Suryavanshi, Wanindu Hasaranga, Jofra Archer, Ashok Sharma, Tushar Deshpande, Fazalhaq Farooqi, Kumar Kartikeya, Akash Madhwal, Kwena Maphaka, Sandeep Sharma, Maheesh Theekshana, Yudhvir Singh.
Kolkata Knight Riders Squad: Ajinkya Rahane (c), Rinku Singh, Quinton de Kock, Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Angkrish Raghuvanshi, Venkatesh Iyer, Ramandeep Singh, Andre Russell, Anrich Nortje, Harshit Rana, Sunil Narine, Varun Chakaravarthy, Vaibhav Arora, Mayank Markande, Rovman Powell, Manish Pandey, Spencer Johnson, Luvnith Sisodia, Anukul Roy, Moeen Ali.
Russell remains a match-winner despite inconsistency. His form will be crucial for KKR’s success in IPL 2025.
Kolkata Knight Riders Squad: Quinton de Kock(w), Sunil Narine, Ajinkya Rahane(c), Venkatesh Iyer, Rinku Singh, Angkrish Raghuvanshi, Andre Russell, Ramandeep Singh, Spencer Johnson, Harshit Rana, Varun Chakaravarthy, Anrich Nortje, Manish Pandey, Vaibhav Arora, Anukul Roy, Luvnith Sisodia, Chetan Sakariya, Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Mayank Markande, Rovman Powell, Moeen Ali.
With two wins and one loss for teams batting first, the toss could play a crucial role in determining the outcome.
Yashasvi Jaiswal and Sanju Samson must provide a strong start, especially with KKR’s bowling attack boasting variety and depth.
Sandeep Sharma and Fazalhaq Farooqi need to improve their death-over execution. A failure here could cost RR another high-scoring game.
RR’s lineup lacks a genuine all-rounder, forcing them to choose between strengthening their batting or bowling. Hasaranga’s inclusion could be a game-changer.
KKR has backed Quinton de Kock as their first-choice wicketkeeper-opener despite his poor IPL 2024 and SA20 form. He needs a big knock to justify his selection.
Jurel’s explosive 35-ball 70 against SRH highlighted his talent. However, his strike rate against spin (123.76) is a concern against KKR’s Narine and Chakravarthy.
Narine’s aggressive batting at the top can give KKR an edge, but he has struggled against Archer (9 off 13 balls) and Fazalhaq Farooqi (3 off 8 balls, one dismissal).
After recording the worst IPL bowling figures (0/76), Archer will be keen to bounce back. Can he find his rhythm and dismantle KKR’s top order?
Recovering from finger surgery, Sanju Samson is expected to continue as an impact player. His batting prowess remains crucial for RR’s campaign.
Despite boasting names like Venkatesh Iyer, Andre Russell, and Rinku Singh, KKR struggled in their season opener. A repeat failure could spell early trouble in IPL 2025.
RR might bring in Hasaranga to strengthen their bowling attack. His all-round abilities could provide much-needed balance, especially against KKR’s explosive lineup.
RR nearly conceded the highest IPL total ever in their last game against SRH. Jofra Archer, despite his experience, had a forgettable outing, leaking 76 runs in four overs.
Riyan Parag captaining RR in his home state of Assam marks a significant moment in IPL history. The young leader will aim to turn RR’s fortunes around at Barsapara Stadium.
