Kolkata Knight Riders will get the Sunil Narine boost in the game against Mumbai Indians. The spinner will return to the defending champions’ playing XI after missing the previous game due to an illness. After losing their IPL 2025 opener to RCB, Rahane and co. bounced back with a convincing win against RR. They will look to carry that momentum into the game at Wankhede.

KKR will bank on de Kock and Narine to go all guns blazing at the top-order against MI. Captain Rahane, who is very much familiar with the conditions in his home ground, will be looking to capitalize on the opportunity to play there.
The middle-order comprising of Venkatesh, Rinku, Russell and Ramandeep will have to step up their game as they enter MI’s Wankhede fortress which KKR managed to breach last year.
Meanwhile, Angkrish Raghuvanshi is expected to serve as the impact player.

KKR bowlers will have to be extra careful at the Wankhede, given that a run-fest is on the cards. The pacers will have to do much better, with Russell not having bowled this season yet. Varun Chakravarthy and Sunil Narine will hope to trouble MI batters with their spin tricks.
