RR vs KKR IPL 2025 Dream11 prediction: Fantasy cricket tips, probable playing XIs, team news, injury updates for Rajasthan Royals vs Kolkata Knight Riders

Rajasthan Royals (RR), is gearing up to turn their luck around against the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in what promises to be an exciting match of the Indian Premier League 2025 (IPL).  The Royals faced a tough challenge from the Sunrisers, managing to score 242/6 but still falling short by 44 runs after a rough first innings. Meanwhile, the Knight Riders were handed a solid defeat by RCB, losing by seven wickets in their opener.

Riyan Parag and his squad are eager to turn things around, hoping for a strong performance with the ball after a rough outing—especially with their star pacer Jofra Archer, who had a tough day, giving away 76 runs, the worst figures in IPL history. However, the batting lineup showed promise, with Sanju Samson (66), Dhruv Jurel (70), Shimron Hetmyer (42), and Shubham Dubey (34*) providing a glimmer of hope and confidence for the Royals.

On the flip side, KKR can draw motivation from their new captain Ajinkya Rahane's impressive start (56) and Sunil Narine's explosive 44 at the top of the order. Unfortunately, a collapse in the middle overs hurt their chances, as Iyer, Rinku, and Russell struggled to make an impact. The bowlers also had a rough outing, with the exception of Sunil Narine's 1/27—everyone else was hit hard.
