IPL 2025: RR vs KKR, Match 6: Stats Review of player records and achieved milestones

The second home of the Rajasthan Royals (RR), Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati, hosted the sixth Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 match. In order to assess the new pitch and obtain an advantage over the opposition, the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) chose to bowl first after winning the toss.

The batsmen of the Rajasthan Royals got off to an aggressive start, scoring 54 runs in the powerplay for just one wicket lost. Their enthusiasm was short-lived, though, as KKR bowlers quickly dismantled RR’s middle order with consecutive strikes. The most impressive player with the ball was Varun Chakravarthy, who took two wickets at a cost of just 17 runs. He was well-complemented by Moeen Ali, who took two wickets for 23 runs.

RR was having trouble at 82 for 5 at the eleventh over.

Jofra Archer’s late fireworks, which featured a couple of sixes, and Dhruv Jurel’s vital 33-run knock enabled RR to a solid total of 151/9 before the conclusion of 20 overs, despite the losses.

KKR responded by getting off to a slow start and scoring just 40 runs during the powerplay. Quinton de Kock, however, spearheaded the attack with an incredible undefeated 97 off just 61 balls as the innings picked up speed in the middle overs. His brilliant batting performance made the chase easy and guaranteed KKR’s victory by eight wickets.

With this decisive victory, KKR made a strong start to the 2025 Indian Premier League by showcasing their dominating batsmanship and ball skills. In the meantime, RR will try to recover more forcefully in their next games.
