KKR vs SRH Head-to-head stats and records you need to know before Kolkata Knight Riders vs Sunrisers Hyderabad IPL 2025 match

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) will take on Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in match number 15 of IPL 2025 at the iconic Eden Gardens on Thursday, April 3. This will be a rematch of last year's final in which KKR thumped SRH by eight wickets. Defending champions Kolkata have lost two of the three matches they have played. Hyderabad have also suffered a similar fate.

A hapless KKR were hammered by Mumbai Indians (MI) by eight wickets in their previous match at the Wankhede Stadium. Batting first, Kolkata were bundled out for 116 in 16.2 overs as MI's left-arm pacer Ashwani Kumar (3-24) made a sensational debut. KKR's batters will need to step up. Skipper Ajinkya Rahane must lead the way, while the likes of Venkatesh Iyer also need to contribute.

SRH's ultra-aggressive batting approach hasn't worked in IPL 2025, barring the opening game. Hyderabad went down to Delhi Capitals (DC) by seven wickets in their previous match in Visakhapatnam. Aniket Verma (74 off 41) played an explosive knock, but the batting crumbled around him. Abhishek Sharma has had an underwhelming start to the season and will be keen to change things around.
