The Kolkata Knight Riders vs Punjab Kings IPL 2025 match ended in a no-result after rain forced the game to be called off at the Eden Gardens on April 26. Both teams ended up sharing one point each, with Punjab Kings moving to fourth place on the IPL 2025 points table. This was the first time in IPL history, where Punjab Kings had a match get washed out. Batting first, Punjab Kings openers Priyansh Arya and Prabhsimran Singh provided the team a swift and solid start. During their 120-run stand, Priyansh Arya notched his half-century in 27 balls. Andre Russell provided Kolkata Knight Riders' first breakthrough, dismissing Priyansh Arya (69). Prabhsimran Singh (83) ended up hitting his second fifty of IPL 2025 but fell to Vaibhav Arora. Varun Chakaravarthy (1/39) claimed the wicket of Glenn Maxwell, whose poor run in the competition continued. Captain Shreyas Iyer (25*) scored handy runs, which propelled Punjab to 201/4 after Knight Riders bowlers made a comeback in the death overs. Vaibhav Arora (2/34) was the best bowler for Kolkata. In reply, Sunil Narine (4*) and Rahmanullah Gurbaz (1*) played just one over, scoring seven runs before the rain played spoilsport, forcing players off the field. With persistent rains, match officials called the match off, as both teams were handed one point each.
