In match 43 of VIVO Indian Premier League 2019 (IPL 2019), Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) will host Rajasthan Royals (RR) at the Eden Gardens on Thursday. KKR are at the sixth spot in the IPL 2019 points table while RR are at number seven. Both KKR and RR lost their previous matches against SRH and DC respectively. Dinesh Karthik-led KKR are struggling to stay afloat after five defeats on the trot and will have to win remaining four league stage matches to keep their hopes alive. Rajasthan Royals, who replaced Steve Smith in place of Ajinkya Rahane as the skipper, did not have a good season and are virtually out of the playoffs contention. Kinght Riders likely to make some changes in KKR playing 11, bringing in Kuldeep Yadav after drubbing from Sunrisers Hyderabad in their previous match.
