IPL 2024: Top 3 Records That Could Be Broken in Today’s KKR vs RR Match

The 31st match of IPL 2024 will be played against Kolkata Knight Riders and Rajasthan Royals at Eden Gardens in Kolkata from 7:30 pm. 

At Eden Gardens in the last game, Kolkata Knight Riders defeated Lucknow SuperGiants by eight wickets, managing to return to winning ways. The two-time champions had won three straight games before losing to Chennai Super Kings in their most recent game, but against LSG, they raised their game and won rather easily. 

On the other hand, things have been likewise brilliant so far for Rajasthan Royals too as they have won five matches out of the six they have played. Though they did suffer a defeat in their game against Gujarat Titans, they would be looking to bounce back to winning ways and hold on to the table toppers position. 

Rajasthan Royals will be led by Sanju Samson who has been commendable both as a player and a captain while KKR will be led by Shreyas Iyer. 

Here are some records that could be broken in the match –

Samson Set to Reach 200 IPL Sixes Milestone

Rajasthan Royals skipper Sanju Samson is known for his well-timed fours but other than that he is an effective six-hitter. Samson is seven sixes shy of reaching 200 sixes in the IPL. 

Chahal Nears 200 IPL Wicket Milestone

Yuzvendra Chahal has been a consistent name in the wicket-takers list and he is continuing his form in IPL 2024 too, he has taken 11 wickets in 6 matches and is just 2 wickets away from reaching 200 wickets in IPL. He is the highest wicket-taker ever in IPL with 198 wickets. 

Shreyas Iyer Aims for Record-Breaking Spree 

KKR Captain Shreyas Iyer is all set to break many records with the bat this season. In the Last Game, he reached the landmark of 450 T20 fours. Shreyas Iyer (248) needs another two fours to reach 250 fours in IPL.

It’s the Table Toppers Clash and a win will ensure the domination in the table and the winning run in the tournament.
