KKR vs MI In IPL 2024 On May 11

Almost certain of a place in the IPL 2024 Playoffs, KKR will take on already eliminated MI at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Saturday (May 11). MI, five-time champions of IPL, have had a miserable year this time around and only have 8 points from 12 matches.

MI may no longer be in the contention for a place in the playoffs but will want to finish of the season on a high before coming back refreshed the next season ahead of which there is also set to be a mega-auction.
