Welcome to Sportstar’s LIVE coverage of the Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Kolkata Knight Riders IPL 2025 match being played at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi.
Both teams are out of contention for the Playoffs but would want end the season on a high and secure a victory.
Sunrisers were languishing at the bottom of the table throughout the season and suffered a mighty fall in standard after their runner-up finish in the previous season.
Kolkata Knight Riders, on the other hand, was hoping to make it to the Playoffs when the IPL resumed, even if it remained a remote chance. But it was a washout against Royal Challengers Bengaluru on May 17 that extinguished the defending champion’s hope.
The team which wins today will move up to the sixth place in the points table, and would hope Lucknow Super Giants loses its final game to hold onto that spot.
