KKR vs PBKS IPL 2025 Dream 11 prediction: The defending champions of IPL 2024, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) host the fifth rankers Punjab Super Kings (PBKS) in Eden Gardens at 7:30 PM IST today. A crucial game to improve the rankings, this home-ground match comes after two consecutive defeats for KKR. The Shreyas Iyer led Punjab Kings, on the other hand, have had quite a season so far with 10 points to their name and just three losses.
Winning this match will put PBKS in a comfortable spot above the Mumbai Indians (MI) and Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) to make it to the playoffs. After folding just 95 in the previous match against PBKS, the Knight Riders have a lot at stake for today’s game.
KKR vs PBKS Dream 11 Prediction
After a hopeful reform in the middle-order batsmen for the KKR, the team might be able to steer the IPL 2025 in the right direction. With just six games left to the playoffs, all eyes are on Venkatesh Iyer (KKR) and Yuzvendra Chahal (PBKS). Iyer’s sluggish three-digit scores places him on thin ice after facing stern competition from Marco Jensen.
Yuzvendra Chahal, however, has rediscovered his rhythm after a slow start to IPL 2025 taking seven wickets in previous innings. Fantasy team must haves are definitely Ajinkya Rahane, Arshdeep Singh, Shreyas Iyer and Harshit Rana.
KKR vs PBKS fantasy team selection: Ajinkya Rahane, Shreyas Iyer, Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Prabhsimran Singh, Angkrish Raghuvanshi, Moeen Ali, Nehal Wadhera, Marco Jansen, Vaibhav Arora, Harshit Rana, Arshdeep Singh
Players to avoid: Spencer Johnson, Yash Thakur
