Dhruv Jurel to Andre Russell: Players to watch out for in RR vs KKR IPL match

1. Sanju Samson

The Kolkata Knight Riders skipper played a brilliant knock of 56 runs from 31 deliveries in his side’s IPL 2025 opener against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru. Rahane will be looking to contribute well with the bat again in KKR’s second match of the season on Wednesday.

2. Ajinkya Rahane

The Rajasthan Royals wicketkeeper-batter played a sensational knock of 70 runs from 35 deliveries in his side’s IPL 2025 opener against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Jurel will once again be looking to contribute well with the bat in his side’s upcoming encounter against the Kolkata Knight Riders.

3. Dhruv Jurel

The Kolkata Knight Riders all-rounder was arguably the side’s top performer in their IPL 2025 opener against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru. Narine not only played a decent knock of 44, but also finished his quota of 4 overs with great figures of 1/27.

4. Sunil Narine

The Rajasthan Royals pacer may have bowled a costly spell of 1/51 in his side’s IPL 2025 opener against the Sunrisers Hyderabad, but with the pitch at the Barsapara Stadium expected to provide help to pacers in the first few overs, Sandeep could come in handy in the Rajasthan-based franchise’s encounter against the Kolkata Knight Riders.

5. Sandeep Sharma

The Kolkata Knight Riders all-rounder may have not been able to perform at his best in his side’s IPL 2025 opener against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru, but there is no doubt that he can contribute well for the Kolkata-based franchise in both the batting and bowling departments. Russell will definitely be one of the players to watch out for in KKR’s clash against Rajasthan Royals.
