KKR vs GT LIVE Updates, IPL 2025: Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) take on IPL 2025 table-toppers Gujarat Titans (GT) today, eyeing a return to victory. Led by Ajinkya Rahane, defending champions KKR have won only three out of seven matches, and need a win to stay in touching distance of the playoffs. Shubman Gill-led GT, on the other hand, have won five matches out of seven, and are sitting pretty on top spot. In their previous game, GT chased down a target of 204 against Delhi Capitals. KKR will be hoping for a pitch that suits their strengths at the Eden Gardens. (Live Scorecard)
