By MyKhel Staff

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) will look to avenge the reverse fixture loss and stop a slide when they host Punjab Kings (PBKS) in match 42 on IPL 2025 at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Saturday (April 26).

Ajinkya Rahane-led KKR head into the match on the back of a fifth defeat this season with the latest result being a 39-run loss to table-toppers Gujarat Titans at home, where they suffered their third loss in four games, failing to chase down 199.

Shreyas Iyer’s PBKS, on the other hand, suffered their third loss of the season with a 7-wicket defeat at the New PCA Stadium against Royal Challengers Bengaluru being their latest result. In their last outing PBKS failed to defend 158 against RCB.

The Punjab Kings, however, will take a lot of confidence from their recent results against KKR, including the reverse fixture victory in Mullanpur, where the home side set the record for the lowest total defence by bundling out the Kolkata-based side for 95 in response to 111.

Now, PBKS and KKR will both aim for a return to the win column when they face-off for the 33rd time in IPL history and for the thirteenth time at the iconic Eden Gardens in Kolkata. Here is a look at the KKR vs PBKS head to head records and stats:
