🏏IPL Match 54 KKR vs RR 🏏

Kolkata Knight Riders are set to lock horns with Rajasthan Royals in Match No.54 of the 2021 Indian Premier League on Thursday, October 7 at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium, Sharjah. The Knight Riders, led by Eoin Morgan, are in with a good chance of qualifying for the playoffs with a net run rate of 0.294.

But if they lose their next game, they will have to depend on Mumbai Indians going down against the Sunrisers Hyderabad. The Royals aren’t in the best of form and the Knights will be looking to seal their playoffs berth in their next game itself. In the UAE, the Men in Gold and Purple have played well.

RR, captained by Sanju Samson, still have a chance to make it to the playoffs. But the eight-wicket loss at the hands of MI dashed their hopes big time. Their net run rate of -0.737 is the worst among all the teams in the competition. In their previous meeting against KKR, they won by six wickets.

Pitch Report

The pitch in Sharjah hasn’t been an easy one for batting thus far in the tournament. Scoring runs in the first six overs will hold a lot of importance. The spinners are expected to play a critical role. Chasing should be the way forward.

Avg first innings score: 132 (7 matches in the IPL 2021 at Sharjah)

Record of chasing teams: Won – 5, Lost – 2, Tied – 0
