Kolkata Knight Riders will begin their IPL campaign against Punjab Kings on April 1: here is a look at the KKR IPL schedule, including match timings and venues.

KKR endured a stop-start season in IPL 2022, only mustering 12 points from their 14 games and finishing seventh after the league stages. In the off-season, though, they acquired the services of Shardul Thakur and would be hoping to make a much bigger mark this time out. Shreyas Iyer will continue to lead the side which also features the likes of Andre Russell and Sunil Narine. Venkatesh Iyer, who has not played for India in the recent past, would also be hoping to get back among the runs and make an impact.

Kolkata Knight Riders’ opening fixture sees them take on Punjab Kings in Mohali. Their first home game, meanwhile, is against Royal Challengers Bangalore on April 6.
