KKR vs GT IPL 2025 Dream11 prediction: Fantasy cricket tips, probable playing XIs, team news, injury updates for Kolkata Knight Riders vs Gujarat Titans

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) are gearing up to reverse their fortunes in the upcoming clash against the Gujarat Titans (GT) in the 39th match of the ongoing IPL 2025 (Indian Premier League). The match is scheduled to take place on Monday, April 21, at the Eden Gardens. The defending champions are focused on strengthening their struggling batting lineup as they face off against the table-topping and IPL 2022 champions.

In their recent match, Ajinkya Rahane and his team experienced a surprising collapse, being bowled out for just 95 runs while chasing a target of 112 against the Punjab Kings at Mullanpur. Despite this setback, the three-time IPL champions are optimistic about their chances, especially with the addition of Abhishek Nayar to their squad. Nayar, who was recently released by the Indian Cricket Board, is making a return to KKR, where he previously served as a coach. His presence is expected to provide a much-needed boost to the team, considering their success in the previous season. Kolkata must win five out of their remaining seven matches to stay in contention for the playoffs.

On the other hand, the Gujarat Titans, who are currently at the top of the table, are in excellent form. In their last match against the Delhi Capitals at the iconic Narendra Modi Cricket Stadium in Ahmedabad, star wicketkeeper-batsman Jos Buttler played a remarkable innings, scoring an unbeaten 97 runs. As a result, GT successfully chased down the target of 204 runs with four balls to spare.
