IPL 2025: Struggling Kolkata Knight Riders, Sunrisers Hyderabad Look To Reignite Campaign
Defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders and last season's finalists Sunrisers Hyderabad find themselves in troubled waters, having lost two of their last three games, and both teams will be desperate to revive their campaigns when they lock horns in the IPL in Kolkata on Thursday. KKR skipper Ajinkya Rahane had initially downplayed concerns surrounding his team following a heavy defeat to Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the season opener, insisting there was "no need to panic". However, with two losses in three matches -- considering KKR lost just three games across both home and away legs in their triumphant campaign in IPL 2024 -- the mood in the camp is slightly muted.
