The Chennai Super Kings will host the Kolkata Knight Riders in the match 22 of the ongoing IPL 2026 on Tuesday at the M. A. Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai.
Chennai Super Kings finally opened their account in the tournament with a strong performance against Delhi Capitals in their previous match. The highlight of that game was a brilliant unbeaten 115 off 56 balls by Sanju Samson, who played a key role in CSK's big total.
CSK, led by Ruturaj Gaikwad, have so far won only one match out of four in the season. The team has been playing with a relatively young squad, as experienced player MS Dhoni is not part of the playing XI.
On the other hand, Kolkata Knight Riders are still searching for their first win of the season. They have lost all four of their matches so far and are currently at the bottom of the points table. Their only point came from a match that was abandoned against the Punjab Kings.
KKR came close to winning their last match against Lucknow Super Giants but fell short after a strong finish from the opposition.
With both teams preparing for this much-anticipated match, in this article, let's take a look at the head-to-head record between CSK and KKR.
