Rajasthan Royals vs Kolkata Knight Riders, IPL 2025: A Detailed Look at Head-to-Head Stats and Past Records.

Rajasthan Royals vs Kolkata Knight Riders IPL Head-to-Head Stats, Overall Record, Key Matchups, and Historical Performance: Defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders will face inaugural edition winners Rajasthan Royals in the sixth league stage match of the IPL 2025 on Wednesday (March 26). The high-voltage match is scheduled to take place at Barsapara Cricket Stadium. Royals suffered an embarrassing defeat by 44 runs against Sunrisers Hyderabad in the last match played on Sunday, whereas KKR went down by 7 wickets against RCB at Eden Gardens on Saturday.
After getting smacked for 286 runs in 20 overs against SRH, Royals bowlers would like to come up with a much-improved show against the Knight Riders. All eyes will be on England fast bowler Jofra Archer, who was smacked for 76 runs in his quota of four overs by SRH batters. The right-arm pacer is likely to get one more chance despite a forgetful day in Hyderabad.

On the other hand, KKR bowlers will also be eager to dish out clinical performance. In the match against RCB, Harshit Rana, Vaibhav Arora and Varun Chakaravarthy looked clueless, and they will be under pressure to deliver in Guwahati.
For the match against Royals, KKR could include South Africa’s Anrich Nortje in the playing XI in place of Spencer Johnson. Nortje is a seasoned campaigner and can trouble RR batters with his pace.
