Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) will play against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) on Wednesday, May 7 at 7:30 PM IST. The match will be played at Eden Gardens, Kolkata. It's a crucial game for KKR as they attempt to remain in the hunt for the playoffs, while CSK will seek to provide opportunities to their young players. KKR are sixth on the points table with 11 points from five wins, five losses, and one no-result. Their season has been a rollercoaster, and they have not been able to gain the kind of momentum that they had while winning the title last year. Even if they win their remaining three games, they might still fall short of the playoffs. Their core issue has been batting, particularly versus spin, and Venkatesh Iyer's ineform has just aggravated the matter. On a positive note, spinners Sunil Narine and Varun Chakaravarthy of their side have delivered, and the recent positive run of Andre Russell provides cause. They just cannot afford further slip-ups. CSK's season hasn't been that good and already lie out of contention for playoffs. MS Dhoni had to come back as captain after Ruturaj Gaikwad got injured early in the season, but still tried the team couldn't recover. Dhoni himself tried not to be in good form either, frequently forcing the batsman to struggle to pick the spin in the last overs. Gambhir's recent match against RCB was the team's best run chase this season, and Gambhir has started giving youth opportunities like Urvil Patel. Though the results haven't been in their favor, CSK are now concentrating on creating a team for the future, and the young players will attempt to get the most out of these final few games. The rivalry has seen plenty of memorable matches where numerous records have been broken and created. This match also promises a similar kind of entertainment. Kolkata Knight Riders are eyening a playoffs spot, while Chennai Super Kings aim for a win for their pride. Let's have a look at the stats and milestones that have been created in the past and which can be created in this game.
