While CSK are out of playoff contention, KKR are still mathematically alive — making this a must-win game for the home side.
KKR come into the fixture riding high on a nail-biting one-run victory over Rajasthan Royals, a result that has kept their slim playoff hopes intact. The bowling unit held its nerve in the death overs, and that resilience will be crucial again if they are to continue their late push for the top four.
With Andre Russell, Sunil Narine and Varun Chakravarthy leading the charge, KKR will look to capitalize on home advantage and momentum.

With only pride to play for, CSK may use the remaining games to test their bench strength. However, with players like Ayush Mhatre, Shivam Dube, and Matheesha Pathirana, they are still capable of spoiling KKR라이브 바카라 party.
