While Rajasthan lost their last game against Gujarat Titans by 37 runs, KKR fared no better against a resurgent Sunrisers Hyderabad. A victory for either side can help them maintain their spot in the top four of the point table.
RR have three of their five games so far, while KKR have fallen into the bottom-half of the table after losing their last two games. RR also lost their last game against GT and will look to bounce back with the games approaching thick and fast. KKR, on the other hand, have been poor with the ball, and have conceded plenty of runs during the death overs.
