PBKS vs KKR Dream11 Prediction, Playing 11, Fantasy Cricket Tips: 31st Match, IPL 2025

Punjab Kings are set to take on Kolkata Knight Riders in the 31st Match of the Indian Premier League 2025.

Hello and welcome to the PBKS vs KKR Dream11 Prediction and Match Preview.

The match will be played at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium, Mullanpur, which is the home ground of Punjab Kings.

Both Punjab Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders are stuck in the middle of the points table. A win today will help either team climb up and build some momentum.

Punjab Kings started the season well with two back-to-back wins, but they couldn’t continue that form at home.

They’ve now played 5 matches, won 3, and lost 2, and are currently in 6th position with 6 points.

In their last match, they scored a big total but still lost to Sunrisers Hyderabad by 8 wickets. Their bowling didn’t work well in that game.

Priyansh Arya has been a bright spot, giving fast starts in the powerplay. Prabhsimran Singh has also played some handy knocks. Captain Shreyas Iyer is in superb form and leading from the front.

However, bowlers apart from Lockie Ferguson haven’t performed consistently.

Also, foreign players like Glenn Maxwell and Marcus Stoinis are yet to leave a mark, which is something the team must fix soon.

Kolkata Knight Riders are in a similar situation. They’ve played 6 games, won 3, and lost 3, and are one place ahead of Punjab in 5th position with 6 points.

Quinton de Kock has done well in a few games but hasn’t been consistent. Sunil Narine, who was dangerous with the bat last season, hasn’t performed this year.

Vaibhav Arora has looked promising with the ball, but Varun Chakaravarthy, their key spinner, hasn’t taken many wickets and hasn’t been effective.

Both teams have a lot to prove in this game. Punjab will look to bounce back at home, while KKR will want to build on their last few matches. The pressure is on, and it should be an exciting contest.
