Sunil Narine Set to Boost KKR Against MI – Recovery Confirmed!

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) may get a major boost ahead of their IPL 2025 match against Mumbai Indians (MI). Sunil Narine, who missed the last game due to illness, is likely to return. He has resumed training and looks fit to play on March 31 at Wankhede Stadium.

Narine Trains Hard in the Nets

Narine practiced at Wankhede alongside Andre Russell. He focused on range-hitting and bowling drills. His return will strengthen KKR’s batting and bowling.

Medical Reports Confirm His Recovery

Reports suggest that Narine is stable and under medical observation. A KKR source said:

“Sunil Narine is recovering well. He has a strong chance of playing against Mumbai Indians on March 31.”

If cleared, Narine may replace Moeen Ali in the XI. Moeen performed well against Rajasthan Royals, but KKR values Narine’s experience.

Narine’s IPL 2025 Performance So Far

Narine played well in KKR’s first match against RCB. He scored 44 off 26 balls and took 1/27 in four overs. Despite his efforts, KKR lost by seven wickets.

KKR bounced back against Rajasthan Royals and won their second match. Narine’s return could help them build momentum.

KKR Seeks to Break Losing Streak Against MI

KKR has struggled against Mumbai Indians in the past. MI has dominated their head-to-head record. With Narine back, KKR hopes to turn the tables.

• Rahmanullah Gurbaz
