Kolkata Knight Riders are currently placed on top of the tree with three wins in the five matches played so far. Even though they are expected to fall behind SRH eventually in the tournament if DK’s side continues to win games at this rate, they surely would make it to the playoffs.
Kolkata Knight Riders host Kings XI Punjab next on April 21 at Eden Gardens after the latter plays against Sunrisers at Mohali on Wednesday.
