KKR vs MI Match 65, Cricket Tips: Kolkata Knight Riders have shown a great comeback after six winless matches to start the IPL 2026. Now, they have won five out of their last six matches, which has put them in contention for the playoffs. But KKR have to win their remaining two games and hope that the other results can go in their favor.

KKR will face Mumbai Indians in a home game. These two teams will be up against each other on Wednesday at Eden Gardens at 7:30 PM IST. MI had a win in the last game against PBKS without Suryakumar Yadav. He is likely to be back, but Quinton de Kock and Raj Bawa have been ruled out due to injuries. MI have already beaten KKR once this season and will look to do it again.
