KKR vs LSG Dream11 Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips – Match 21, IPL 2025:

KKR vs LSG, Match Preview:

KKR are coming into this game on the back of an impressive 80-run win over Sunrisers Hyderabad and will look to make the most of the momentum. Fifties from Angkrish Raghuvanshi and Venkatesh Iyer propelled KKR to 200/6 before they bowled out SRH for 120 runs to get back to winning ways.

KKR are yet to win two successive games this season and will be eyeing a much-needed win in the forthcoming game.

Just like KKR, LSG also registered a win in their last game. The Lucknow-based outfit was up against Mumbai Indians in its previous outing and went on to register a hard-fought 12-run victory. With two wins from four games, LSG are in the bottom half of the points table and will be eyeing a crucial win over the defending champions.
