KKR vs RR IPL 2024 Match Prediction: Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) will face off against the Men In Pink- Rajasthan Royals (RR), in the 31st match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) season 2024 slated to take place at the iconic Eden Gardens in Kolkata on April 16 (Tuesday). RR are leading the IPL 2024 points table with KKR trailing them on the second spot. So it will be the battle between the best of the IPL 2024.

Sanju Samson-led Rajasthan Royals have won five out of the six matches that they have played and KKR, on the other hand, have played five matches and won four of them. KKR won their last match at the Eden Gardens against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) quite convincingly.

Recent Form Of KKR And RR In IPL 2024

RR have been putting up excellent all-round performances in IPL 2024. Their opener Yashasvi Jaiswal coming back in form is the last piece of puzzle that they would feel is solved. RR's batting order, helped by consistent performances by their skipper Sanju Samson, and Riyan Parag, look like one of the best in the IPL 2024 season so far. Their bowling unit, spearheaded by the purple cap holder Yuzvendra Chahal, Trent Boult and Avesh Khan, has been top-notch, contributing significantly to the team's victories.

KKR, on the other hand, have benefited heavily by Sunil Narine's ability to get the team off to flier starts with the bat. Phil Salt’s good form adds to their batting prowess. In terms of bowling, Sunil Narine has been very miserly, giving very little to the opposition batter in the middle overs and Mitchell Starc's recent good outing will have KKR confident in limiting the batting strength of the Rajasthan Royals.
