That's a wrap for our live coverage of the IPL 2025 match between Kolkata Knight Riders and Chennai Super Kings. CSK now boast an impressive 20-11 head-to-head record against KKR, whose playoff hopes are now almost over. 

Join us tomorrow, as Punjab Kings take on Delhi Capitals. Following 'Operation Sindoor', we wait to see whether that match goes ahead properly. 

Thank you! Goodnight.

Dewald Brevis smashed a 22-ball half-century at a crucial juncture, at a pressure situation. Noor took 4 wickets with the ball, but listen to the names - Narine, Raghuvanshi, Russell and Rinku. He also made two crucial runs with the bat!

And don't forget about Urvil Patel! Making his debut, he smashed 31 off just 11 balls. His knock ensured that CSK were never under pressure with the run-rate.

CSK chase down 180+ for the first time since 2019. They came so close to beating RCB in their last game, they've finally got over the line in a tense run chase. CSK stay rooted at the bottom of the table, but these last few games have allowed some superb talents to come through for them.

KKR were on the front foot as CSK were down to 60/5 at one stage. They came back incredibly to make a game out of it after Brevis smashed 30 runs in one over. But they lose in their final home match, and the reigning champs now need a miracle to make the playoffs from here. 

Kamboj slams it for 4! CSK have beaten KKR in a last-over nail-biter. No fielder at long-on, Kamboj clears the in-field and slams the winning runs. CSK win with two balls to spare. That could be the end of KKR's playoff hopes!

CSK 183/8 (19.4) beat KKR 179/6 (20)

MS Dhoni does take a single on the third ball! It's up to Anshul Kamboj to finish the game now. Scores level. 1 needed off the final 3 balls.

CSK 179/8 (19.3)

Dhoni slams it over mid-wicket! MAXIMUM! MS Dhoni strikes on the first ball of the last over. Russell misses his yorker, Dhoni clears it over mid-wicket! CSK need only 2 runs off 5 balls now. Next ball is a dot!

CSK 178/8 (19.2)

Noor departs! He tries the big shot on the final ball, but it is taken by Rinku Singh once again at long-on. Andre Russell must defend 8 to keep KKR's playoff hopes realistically alive. MS Dhoni is on strike!

CSK 172/8 (19)

Poor delivery from Vaibhav, brings it back in towards Noor. The tailender gets it away through on the on-side and Noor and Dhoni scrape two runs! CSK need 8 off 7! Noor on strike on the final ball of the over.

CSK 172/7 (18.5)

Dube departs! Tries to go big on a wide yorker, misses the connection, the ball goes way up and Rinku Singh takes a terrific catch, jumping backwards, at mid-on. KKR have a glimmer of hope. Dube goes for 45 off 40. 10 needed off 8.

CSK 170/7 (18.4)

Vaibhav Arora started the over so well, but he bowls one into the stumps and Dube sends it back over long-on for a maximum! 10 needed off 9 now. CSK in control now, surely.

CSK 170/6 (18.3)

Superb over by Andre Russell. Nails his yorker almost every time. Concedes only 4 runs. CSK need 18 runs off 12 balls. Still the equation in favour of the men in yellow. Vaibhav Arora will bowl Over No. 19. Can he redeem himself?

CSK 162/6 (18)

Shivam Dube, big hit! Once again, Dube slams a boundary at a crucial stage. It is very achievable for CSK now. They need 23 off 20 balls. Harshit bowls a slower one, but Dube picks it well and deposits it over long-on.

CSK 157/6 (16.4)

CSK need 34 runs off the final 4 overs. Required run-rate still under 9, and two proven finishers at the crease. However, two quick wickets could turn the game in favour of the men in purple. 

CSK 147/6 (16)

Dube pulls, Dube gets 4! The set man at the crease chipping in with boundaries now. Dube not allowing pressure to build with regular boundaries at a crunch stage. Short ball by Russell, Dube gets four, just past the fielder at fine leg.

CSK 145/6 (15.4)

Ajinkya Rahane has handed the ball to Andre Russell. KKR's go-to man over so many years, can he come up with a moment of magic to keep KKR's playoff hopes alive tonight? Good start to the over, 1 off the first two balls.

CSK 141/6 (15.2)

Shivam Dube goes big! Clears long-off, gets a maximum in the 15th over. First maximum off Dube's innings. He has been patient but he has held one end tightly at this points. CSK need 41 off the final 5 overs.

CSK 140/6 (15)

KKR have bowled out their two mystery spinners. Narine wicketless but economical, 0/27 in 4 overs. Dhoni and Dube take no risks whatsoever against Narine, play out a defensive over. Now, it's up to the pacers. Harshit comes in.

CSK 132/6 (14)

Varun Chakravarthy's wonderful spell comes to an end. He has given KKR a glimmer of hope in this must-win match. 2/18 in his 4 overs. MS Dhoni and Shivam Dube at the crease, CSK need 51 off 42 balls.

CSK 129/6 (13)

Varun strikes, Brevis departs! KKR need wickets to win now, and that is the big one. The run-rate is in CSK's control, so KKR need wicket. Brevis departs for 52 off 25, Chakravarthy gets his second wicket of the game.

CSK 127/6 (12.1)

WHAT AN OVER! Game-changing over! Vaibhav Arora has been taken to the cleaners by Dewald Brevis. 30 off the over, CSK's required run-rate is down to just over 6 runs an over! 50 for Brevis off just 22 balls!

CSK 123/5 (11)

100 up for CSK! They've got there in really quick time! Brevis slams a six over long-off, then a boundary through fine leg, and then hammers it straight back past the bowler for a boundary and a six! Vaibhav has been taken to the cleaners.

CSK 113/5 (10.4)

Another good over from Varun Chakravarthy. Concedes just 5 runs in the end. Worry for KKR will be that Varun has just one more over left, and CSK's required run-rate isn't too difficult. KKR need wickets.

CSK 93/5 (10)

Dewald Brevis smashes six! Very well picked up by the talented South African, against Sunil Narine. Clears mid-wicket and grabs a maximum. This partnership slowly turning fruitful for CSK. 9 comes off Narine's over.

CSK 88/5 (9)

Chakravarthy bowls another fine over, puts a brake on the run flow. Just 5 runs off it. Importantly for CSK, these two batters are holding on. The required run-rate is just 8.42, so it is very much achievable for the men in yellow.

CSK 79/5 (8)

Great shot by Brevis! Takes the risk, doesn't get the full monte on it but still gets 4. Through mid-wicket, just short of Ramandeep Singh running in. Two boundaries conceded by Narine, CSK continue their healthy run-rate. All they need is a solid partnership.

CSK 74/5 (7)

Fast, heavy winds in Kolkata, and play is halted for a moment. Shivam Dube slaps a boundary through extra cover after that, against Sunil Narine. Terrific timing by the left-hander, who is due a big knock this season.

CSK 69/5 (6.3)

What a dramatic, topsy-turvy powerplay. Some of the purest hitting off Urvil Patel's blade, but otherwise, you have to say KKR are on the front foot. 5 wickets in six overs: two for Rana, one each for Vaibhav, Moeen and Varun.

CSK 62/5 (6)

Jadeja departs! Immediate response by Varun Chakravarthy. Jadeja gets an outside edge, and he is bowled! Chennai Super Kings have lost five wickets in the powerplay. Yes, their run-rate is excellent, but now they desperately need a big partnership.

CSK 60/5 (5.2)

Ravindra Jadeja continues the onslaught. First ball by Chakravarthy and Jadeja slams it back over the bowler's head for a boundary! 19 off 9 now, Jadeja. How can KKR stop him here?

CSK 60/4 (5.1)

Harshit gets Ashwin! Once again, the pacer leaks runs but strikes with the last ball of his over. Ashwin slams it straight to Raghuvanshi standing at backward point. Harshit does the 'calma' celebration. CSK 4-down!

CSK 56/4 (5)

Harshit gets Ashwin! Once again, the pacer leaks runs but strikes with the last ball of his over. Ashwin slams it straight to Raghuvanshi standing at backward point. Harshit does the 'calma' celebration. CSK 4-down!

CSK 56/4 (5)

Chennai Super Kings continue the flow of runs at electric pace! Jadeja gets 4 more through third man, Harshit leaking runs here. They have a lot of batting to come after this - Brevis, Dube, Dhoni. 180 is definitely in sight.

CSK 53/3 (4.3)

Ravindra Jadeja gets a maximum! Comes down the track and takes Harshit on, and smashes him over mid-wicket for six. Great shot by Jadeja. Played a brilliant 45-ball 77 in CSK's last match, and seems to be continuing the good form.

CSK 49/3 (4.2)

Moeen Ali with a much neater second over. Concedes just six runs. Two veteran India stars, who have won India many, many matches across formats, now at the crease for CSK. Jadeja and Ashwin, can they work their magic again?

CSK 43/3 (4)

Urvil is gone! Swings hard at the final ball off Harshit Rana's over, takes an outside edge and a superb catch taken at short third-man by Varun Chakravarthy! Big wicket for KKR. CSK are three wickets down, despite their fast start.

CSK 37/3 (3)

First boundary for R Ashwin! Pace from Harshit, wide outside off-stump, and Ashwin picks up 4 runs. Slams it through the point region, away from the fielder. And then Urvil smashes it for six over mid-wicket again! What a hitter this guy is!

CSK 37/2 (2.5)

Moeen strikes! Devon Conway clean bowled! Plays and misses, but the ball turns back in sharply and Moeen Ali gets a wicket. He was sent to the cleaners by Urvil, but he has dismissed another opener. Ashwin has been sent in!

CSK 25/2 (1.5)

Urvil Patel is taking Moeen Ali to the cleaners! Smacks a six over mid-wicket, and then clears it over the circle, over mid-off for 4 more. This guy can hit the ball really well! KKR under the pump a bit here. AND SIX MORE! Urvil clears mid-wicket again!

CSK 24/1 (1.3)

What a way to kickstart your IPL career! Second ball maximum! Incredible timing, sends it over deep square-leg for a six. The 26-year-old holds the record for the joint-fastest T20 century by an Indian. Can he show that talent today?

KKR 6/1 (0.4)

Mhatre is gone for a duck! Second ball, tries to whip it through off-stump but sends a catch straight to gully! Harshit Rana takes a sharp catch. Perfect start for KKR as they get the in-form 17-year-old opener.

CSK 0/1 (0.2)

Ayush Mhatre opens with Conway. Urvil will likely come after this. Harshit Rana enters as the Impact Player for KKR, replacing Manish Pandey. But first, it will be Vaibhav Arora who takes the new ball for the men in purple.

CSK will likely go with a new opening pair once again tonight. Devon Conway and Urvil Patel likely to be at the top, although they might stick with Mhatre and send Urvil in at No. 3. This should be a tense innings. Remember, KKR need to win to keep realistic playoff hopes alive.

Noor Ahmad, like so many times this season, was CSK's best bowler. The Afghan spinner took two wickets in his first over - dismissing Narine and Raghuvanshi - and then bowled superbly at the death too. MS Dhoni also showed his magic and quick thinking behind the stumps.

180 should be a tricky chase for CSK, and KKR are certainly in the game. However, the men in purple will be slightly underwhelmed that they couldn't put up a bigger score after the powerplay they had. Bar Russell in the middle, KKR never really had the momentum to go past 200.

Excellent final over by Matheesha Pathirana. Just six singles, and KKR fail to reach the 180-mark. Remember, CSK haven't chased any 180+ total since 2019! A good bowling effort by CSK to concede just 16 runs off the final two overs.

KKR 179/6 (20 overs)

CSK Target: 180

Boundary! Manish Pandey gets his second of the over, executes it well through mid-wicket. KKR should get to 180, but 200 looks a stretch from here. Noor completes his spell, 4/31 after 4 overs, including two in a single over.

KKR 173/6 (19)

Rinku Singh picks off a boundary on the first ball of Noor's final over! Reverse-sweep executed well. But Noor strikes back! Short from Noor, Rinku misses out, excellent catch by Mhatre at deep square-leg, who maintains his balance and stays away from the boundary rope.

KKR 167/6 (18.3)

Manish Pandey grabs a six over long-on and Rinku Singh gets his first boundary with a deft shot through third man. KKR pick up 14 more runs off Pathirana's third over. Noor and Pathirana likely to bowl the final two overs for CSK here. Can KKR get 200?

KKR 163/5 (18)

GONE! Noor strikes on the last ball of the over! Russell lines up another one, but this one is pitched shorter by Noor. And a spectacular catch taken at long-off by Dewald Brevis. Massive wicket for CSK! The danger man is gone.

KKR 149/5 (17)

Andre Russell. What a hit! He picks up a four thanks to a misfield, but now lines up a big shot and clears the ropes with ease! Spectacular hit over mid-wicket. Excellent shot! Russell now on 38 off 20 balls.

KKR 149/4 (16.5)

KKR have increased the tempo, thanks to the big man Andre Russell. 29 runs in the last two overs. The foundation is set for a good total here. Noor comes back into the attack, he'll likely bowl the 17th and 19th overs. 2/11 in his 2 overs so far.

KKR 138/4 (16)

Andre Russell, huge! Flat six over mid-wicket. Pathirana pitches it up, and Russell gives it the treatment over deep mid-wicket. Brutal hit. Surely Pathirana will go back to the yorker length now. No, he doesn't! Slower one, outside off-stump, and whacked for 4!

KKR 134/4 (15.3)

Russell swings hard, it's a big edge and it flies just over Ashwin at slip! Runs away to third man for a boundary. The next ball goes for 4 too! Russell sweeps well, and slams it through square-leg. And then SIX! Russell clears long on! Jadeja has been given the treatment here.

KKR 123/4 (14.4)

Slow start for Andre Russell. Gets off the mark on only his fifth delivery. Gets treated to a superb yorker by Pathirana, and Russell survives somehow. Pathirana has recovered his form in recent games, can he stop Russell today? KKR's run-rate has dropped below 8.

KKR 109/4 (14)

BIG WICKET! KKR captain Ajinkya Rahane departs! He is out for 48 off 33 balls. Ravindra Jadeja delivers the wicket. Rahane attempts a reverse-sweep doesn't get the connection, and Devon Conway takes the catch. Andre Russell is coming out to bat!

KKR 103/4 (12.2)

Difficult catch but Manish Pandey has been put down at long-on! Pandey didn't time it well, he is yet to pick up a boundary either. Seems like it was Mhatre who was the fielder. 100 up for KKR in 12 overs. The foundation is set, but now they need to accelerate.

KKR 101/3 (12)

Beautiful shot! Rahane comes down the track and clears Jadeja over long-off. That was graceful and effective. Takes a single off the next ball, and he is up to 44 now. Would be his fourth fifty of IPL 2025 if he gets there.

KKR 94/5 (10.2)

Manish Pandey and Ajinkya Rahane rotate strike well in Noor's second over. The two veteran batters have kept KKR's run-rate at a healthy place despite the two quick wickets lost. Rahane is nearing a half-century, meanwhile.

KKR 87/1 (10)

Manish Pandey has come out at No. 5 for KKR. He has replaced KKR's Rs 23.75 crore star Venkatesh Iyer in the lineup today. KKR need his experienced badly at this point to rescue them from this hole. Remember, they face a virtual must-win scenario if they want to qualify for the playoffs.

KKR 80/3 (9)

Two wickets in four balls! Raghuvanshi will depart for just 1 run! Thick edge, and caught behind. Noor Ahmad is on fire, MS Dhoni is on fire! KKR's innings falling apart after the powerplay. Two huge scalps.

KKR 71/3 (7.4)

Noor Ahmad strikes first ball! Stumped by MS Dhoni! Narine comes down the track, misses it, and Dhoni is quick to react and dismantle the stumps before Narine can get back on time. KKR suffer another blow.

KKR 69/2 (7.1)

R Ashwin manages to come back well in the first over after the powerplay. Gives away just two runs, and brings down the run-rate a little bit. Important for the veteran performer to play well today given the pricetag he was bought for.

KKR 69/1 (7)

BREAKING: Rohit Sharma has announced his retirement from Test cricket, and a replacement is being touted for the England series in June. Read more about them here. ROHIT RETIRES and WHO REPLACES ROHIT?

KKR have recovered really from the early loss of Gurbaz's wicket. Bit of luck playing in, but Narine and Rahane have managed to accelerate and they're going at more than 11 runs per over after the powerplay. 

KKR 67/1 (6)

Six and four! Ajinkya Rahane is teeing off in the final over of the powerplay, against Anshul Kamboj. Scoops the first ball of the over for six over fine-leg, and then a glorious drive through the off-side for four. And Narine continues the party, 4 more!

KKR 65/1 (5.4)

50 up for the Knight Riders! Sunil Narine helps them get there with a maximum. Not the greatest timing, but enough to clear the ropes back over the bowler's head. Surely this wasn't a great move by Dhoni given Ashwin's record against Narine.

KKR 50/1 (5)

R Ashwin has been brought into the attack, and Narine has started dealing in boundaries! Usually Ashwin boasts a great record against left-handers, but not against Narine. The West Indian is cutting loose here, two boundaries!

KKR 44/1 (4.2)

Top edge, but Rahane survives! Sends it way up into the night sky, chance for Pathirana at deep square-leg, but he fails to hold on. Very, very tough chance. Kamboj completes a really neat over, and has perhaps not got the reward he deserved.

KKR 36/1 (4)

Sunil Narine off the mark! Goes for a pick-up shot on the on-side, gets a thick edge that runs away over the keeper's head for 4! CSK are bowling quite well, but KKR are getting away with their top edges at the moment.

KKR 31/1 (3.1)

Rahane gets his second boundary! Clears mid-wicket, no fielder in the deep and he picks up 4. And the final ball of the over is sent for 4 more! Rahane once again showing his prowess against pace! Bit of a top edge, but clear of the fielders.

KKR 27/1 (3)

Much like Gurbaz, KKR skipper Ajinkya Rahane is off the mark with a boundary on the first delivery! Pitched well outside off stump, Rahane edges it towards third man for 4. Kamboj ends the over well, 12 off the over.

KKR 17/1 (2)

GONE! Anshul Kamboj strikes! Gurbaz not offered room, tries a flick through the on-side but ends up sending it straight down the throat of Noor Ahmad at mid-wicket. CSK strike early, Gurbaz's intentful short stay comes to an end with only two boundaries.

KKR 11/1 (1.3)

What a hit! Gurbaz frees his arms, clears the ropes with ease! Fantastic shot over long-on off the first ball of Kamboj's over. The next one is a swing-and-a-miss. Gurbaz has come out with a really aggressive approach early on.

KKR 11/0 (1.2)

Excellent comeback by Khaleel after being hit for a boundary on the first ball. Swinging the ball well outside off-stump, and Gurbaz manages just a single off the last ball. Anshul Kamboj steaming in from the other end now.

KKR 5/0 (1)

First ball, boundary! Driven through the covers by Rahmanullah Gurbaz. Width offered by Khaleel and Gurbaz gives it the treatment. Khaleel comes back with a couple of sharp deliveries, Gurbaz swings but misses out.

KKR 4/0 (0.3)

Meanwhile, a huge piece of news as we get ready for the game. Indian captain Rohit Sharma has is reportedly going to retire from Test cricket ahead of the five-test series against England in June. Massive news for Indian cricket, going forward.

The Indian national anthem has been played at the Eden Gardens ahead of the match, keeping in mind the soldiers involved in 'Operation Sindoor' that took place last night. Players of both teams and the crowd rise in unison.

KKR's openers will face the test of Khaleel Ahmed and Anshul Kamboj at the start. The two pacers took a beating against RCB in the last game, but on a dry-ish Eden pitch, they could be a big threat to the men in purple.

Chennai Super Kings XI vs KKR: Urvil Patel, Devon Conway, Ayush Mhatre, Ravindra Jadeja, Dewald Brevis, MS Dhoni (c/wk), R Ashwin, Anshul Kamboj, Noor Ahmad, Khaleel Ahmed, Matheesha Pathirana.

Ashwin returns for CSK! Shivam Dube will likely be the Impact Sub.

Kolkata Knight Riders XI vs CSK: Rahmanullah Gurbaz (wk), Sunil Narine, Ajinkya Rahane (c), Angkrish Raghuvanshi, Manish Pandey, Andre Russell, Rinku Singh, Ramandeep Singh, Moeen Ali, Vaibhav Arora, Varun Chakaravarthy.

Expect Harshit Rana to come in as the Impact Sub.

Two big changes for CSK! Urvil Patel is in for Shaik Rasheed. Surprisingly, Sam Curran misses out, and CSK have gone back to veteran opener Devon Conway in their playing XI. Urvil and Conway likely to open then, with Mhatre at No. 3.

As discussed before the match, Venkatesh Iyer - KKR's Rs 23.75 crore mega signing - misses out with stitches on his hand. The experienced Manish Pandey enters the playing XI in his place. Expect Andre Russell to continue batting higher up the order in that case.

Kolkata Knight Riders captain Ajinkya Rahane wins the toss! AND THEY'LL BAT FIRST! Interesting decision by the KKR captain, who says that the reason is that they've won the last two games batting first. 

We are just 10 minutes away from toss time at the Eden Gardens. MS Dhoni is set to captain CSK, while Ajinkya Rahane will, of course, captain KKR. Will be interesting to see what the decision is, but history suggests the toss-winning captain will choose to bowl.

Crowd favourite Mahendra Singh Dhoni skipped practice for the second consecutive day as fans thronging the Eden Gardens on Tuesday faced disappointment again. However, his ardent supporters took solace from Chennai Super Kings bowling coach Eric Simons' confirmation about the talisman's participation in tonight's IPL 2025 match against Kolkata Knight Riders, a must-win outing for the home team. Simons said the 43-year-old Dhoni is "fine" and "will play" the game, which could be his last competitive outing at the hallowed venue. "Yes, he's expected to play tomorrow," said Simons, explaining that Dhoni knows exactly how to manage his preparation.

Here's Kolkata Knight Riders' probable XII vs CSK: Rahmanullah Gurbaz (wk), Sunil Narine, Ajinkya Rahane, Angkrish Raghuvanshi, Venkatesh Iyer, Andre Russell, Rinku Singh, Ramandeep Singh, Moeen Ali, Harshit Rana, Varun Chakravarthy, Vaibhav Arora.

Here's Chennai Super Kings' probable XII vs KKR: Ayush Mhatre, Urvil Patel, Sam Curran, Ravindra Jadeja, Dewald Brevis, Shivam Dube, MS Dhoni, Deepak Hooda, Anshul Kamboj, Khaleel Ahmed, Noor Ahmad, Matheesha Pathirana.

The best news for KKR is that their star all-rounder Andre Russell has returned to form. The powerful Jamaican smashed 57 off just 25 balls against Rajasthan Royals, and has been regularly contributing with the ball too. Expect him to bat higher up the order.

Important to note that the two sides met earlier in the season, at the Chepauk Stadium in Chennai. On that occasion, KKR's spinners dominated as the men in yellow were restricted to just 103/9 in 20 overs. KKR chased it down in just 10.1 overs.

CSK have brought in the highly-rated Urvil Patel into their squad as a replacement for Vansh Bedi. The 26-year-old smashed a 28-ball century in the 2024/25 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy - the joint-fastest century by an Indian in T20 cricket. 

He could be brought into the XI straight away, replacing Shaik Rasheed whose form has dipped.

CSK may already be out of IPL 2025, but they have had big positives to take from their recent matches. The form of 17-year-old Ayush Mhatre has been exceptional, while South African Dewald Brevis has also impressed. Matheesha Pathirana also seems to be finding back his form bit-by-bit.

Chennai Super Kings hold a big advantage over Kolkata Knight Riders when it comes to their head-to-head record in IPL history. The two sides have met 31 times previously, with CSK winning 19, KKR winning 11 and one match finishing in a no-result.

Kolkata Knight Riders are playing at home for the final time this season, and they will be desperate to end off on a high. With two wins on the trot, KKR will hope to win again, before two tough away matches against SRH and RCB.

There will be some worry among fans of MS Dhoni that this could be the legendary skipper's last match at Eden Gardens, should Dhoni retire after this season. Kolkata is a city where Dhoni played much of his junior cricket and where his in-laws reside in. 

KKR's mega Rs 23.75 crore signing Venkatesh Iyer has not had a good season, but he may miss out on the playing XI today due to injury. He has not fielded for majority of KKR's previous two matches, and may feature only as an impact player today, as per reports.

With mock war drills likely to take place at several locations around the country today, we may face a delay in the start of the match. As per reports, the time for the start of the drills in many places has been 4 PM, and some locations in Kolkata are also part of the programme. 

The game holds huge significance for the home side, KKR. The defending champions have won two games on the trot, but still face a virtual must-win scenario in order to keep realistic playoff hopes alive. CSK, on the other hand, are playing for pride, having already been eliminated from IPL 2025.

A very warm welcome to NDTV Sports, for our live coverage of IPL 2025. Today, we are at the iconic Eden Gardens Stadium in Kolkata, as Kolkata Knight Riders take on Chennai Super Kings. It is the 12th match for both sides, and KKR need to win to stay alive in the playoff hunt.
