KKR ranked sixth in the IPL 2025 rankings, with five wins and five losses. In order to qualify for the playoffs, they must win all the remaining games.
Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) will face off against the Chennai Super King on May 7 in the iconic Garden of Eden. KKR currently holds a record of 5 wins and 5 losses in 11 games and ranks them on the scoring list. There are only three games left this season, and each game's victory could be won in the playoffs.
On the other hand, the Chennai Super King has been eliminated. They have nothing, they are free to play fearless cricket. Despite the poor performance in the IPL 2025 season, CSK should not be underestimated. CSK's losses will deal a major blow to KKR's playoff aspirations.
In previous encounters, the two teams faced each other 30 times and the Chennai Super Kings won 19 times. This dominance demonstrates CSK's supremacy over the defending champions who have won 11 victories in MS Dhoni-LED in the past
