Kolkata Knight Riders are in a tricky situation, with just seven points from nine matches.
Match No. 48 of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 will be played between Delhi Capitals (DC) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi.
Delhi Capitals have played nine matches so far this season, winning six and losing three. They are coming into this game after a defeat against Royal Challengers Bengaluru by six wickets.
Kolkata Knight Riders are in a tricky situation, with just seven points from nine matches. Another loss could almost end their hopes for the season. In their last game, they had to settle for shared points with Punjab Kings after rain stopped play.
Both teams made changes in their last match and are expected to continue with the same playing eleven for the upcoming game.
Even though Delhi Capitals lost their last match, they are likely to stick with the same playing eleven for this game.
