KKR vs LSG IPL 2025: They've Let Go Off Shreyas Iyer, Sunil Narine Is Only One Left! Kolkata Fan Ahead Of Lucknow Clash: WATCH

KKR vs LSG: Defending Champions, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) lock horns with Lucknow Super Giants at the historic Eden Gardens on Tuesday, April 8.

The reigning champions, Kolkata, have had an inconsistent run so far this season under the leadership of new skipper Ajinkya Rahane.

After four matches, they stand with two victories and two defeats. While their losses have been heavy, the wins have been dominant. In their previous outing, the Knights outplayed Sunrisers Hyderabad, securing a commanding 80-run victory at their home ground.

Lucknow, on the other hand, find themselves in a similar position with two wins and two losses. In their last fixture, they pulled off a narrow 12-run triumph over Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede Stadium. However, pressure is mounting on their captain Rishabh Pant, who has struggled to find form with the bat across all four games. He'll be eager to silence critics and lead from the front when his side takes on the Knights in this crucial encounter.

But ahead of the big clash, a KKR fan is backing Sunil Narine as her favourite player to shine for the Knights on Tuesday.

The fan also mentioned that as Kolkata have let go of Shreyas Iyer in the auction, Narine remains the only hope to lead the side to victory.

''As they have let go of Shreyas Iyer, Sunil Narine is the only one left now'', the KKR fanatic told OneIndia.
