KKR vs CSK Match Prediction
Defending champions KKR are currently sixth on the points table with 11 points and can’t afford to lose any more games. Their season has been up and down, with the batting not living up to expectations. Venkatesh Iyer, their most expensive player, has struggled to deliver with the bat. However, Andre Russell’s powerful innings in the last match is a big positive and could give the team some much-needed momentum.
CSK, meanwhile, are having a season they’d rather forget. With just two wins in 11 games, they sit at the bottom of the table. Their batting has been disappointing throughout, but young Ayush Mhatre’s recent performance gave fans something to cheer about. While CSK is out of the playoff race, they’ll be hoping to end the season on a positive note and build for the future.
