KKR vs SRH Match Prediction: Kolkata Knight Riders and Sunrisers Hyderabad, who are out of the playoff race in IPL 2025, will face each other in their last match on May 25 this evening. Both the teams would like to end their campaign with a win in this match. Interestingly, when these two teams last faced each other in 2024, it was the IPL final. In that match, Shreyas Iyer-led KKR defeated Pat Cummins-led SRH in a one-sided manner. Now both the teams may be out of the title race once again, but they would not want to leave any stone unturned in this battle of honor.
Recently SRH has strengthened its confidence by defeating Royal Challengers Bangalore by 42 runs. At the same time, Kolkata played its last match against Chennai Super Kings on 7 May at Eden Gardens. The match against RCB on May 17 was canceled due to rain in Bangalore, which also shattered KKR’s last hopes of playoffs. Now Rahane’s team would like to bid goodbye to the fans with a win.
The pitch of Delhi’s Arun Jaitley Stadium has always been helpful for the batsmen. In such a situation, the batting line-up of Sunrisers Hyderabad, which includes explosive batsmen like Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma, Ishan Kishan, Heinrich Klaasen and Aniket Verma, will be hoping for a big score. On the other hand, KKR will also expect better performance from its players.
