KKR IPL 2025 Schedule: Kolkata Knight Riders have assembled a formidable squad for IPL 2025 following a successful mega auction. After clinching their third IPL title in 2024-ending a decade-long wait-the franchise has reinforced its lineup with impactful signings.

Their biggest acquisition was Venkatesh Iyer, who fetched a staggering ₹23.75 crore, making him the costliest buy for KKR this season. They also secured South African stars Quinton de Kock and Anrich Nortje, adding experience and firepower to their roster.

With a total of 21 players, KKR made strategic moves to strengthen their squad. They utilized their full retention quota, holding onto six key players who form the backbone of the team. Rinku Singh, known for his match-winning heroics, was the most valuable retention, reaffirming his crucial role in the squad.

Andre Russell and Sunil Narine, the veteran Caribbean all-rounders, continue to be vital to KKR's plans, providing both explosive batting and effective bowling options. Varun Chakravarthy, their lead spinner, remains a pivotal asset in the bowling attack. The team also showed faith in young talents Harshit Rana and Ramandeep Singh, both of whom have since earned international recognition. Ajinkya Rahane is back in the team and he will be leading the side in the upcoming season.

With a well-balanced squad blending experience and youth, KKR is gearing up for another title-contending campaign in IPL 2025.
