KKR vs GT LIVE: What next for KKR?
Kolkata Knight Riders have a mountain to climb from here. With five teams on 10 points and KKR only on 6, they'll need to win at least five of their remaining six games to stand a chance at the playoffs. Lots to improve, particularly with the bat.

They take on Punjab Kings next, on Saturday, April 26.

Rinku mistimes it, Shubman Gill takes a good running catch, Ishant Sharma gets a wicket. What a day it has been for Gill. 90 with the bat, now a catch, and has used his bowlers brilliantly. His side will extend their lead at the top of IPL 2025 today.

Kolkata Knight Riders get to 150. Rinku Singh picks up another boundary, he is up to 17 off 12 now, along with Raghuvanshi on 20 off 9. The game is beyond reach provided GT bowl legal deliveries. This is just an effort to reduce the net run-rate loss.

Shubman Gill shows exactly why he's regarded as one of the premier batting talents in the world. 90 runs off 55 balls against his former side KKR. A huge opening stand with Sai Sudharsan, as they negated the KKR spinners very well. How often do you see Varun Chakravarthy and Sunil Narine go wicketless!
