Real-time conditions factored into our model
Pitch
Flat batting-friendly surface with true bounce and short boundaries (66-68m square, 76-78m straight); average first-innings score in IPL 2026 at this venue is 203, with some grip for spinners as match progresses
Dew Factor
Minimal - this is a day match starting 3:30 PM IST, so no dew factor; toss advantage significantly reduced compared to night games at Eden

KKR: Harshit Rana ruled out (knee injury); pace attack severely depleted with Mustafizur also unavailable. RR: No major absentees reported
Current through April 18, 2026 - match previews and results up to KKR loss vs GT on April 17 and RR loss vs SRH on April 13
