Narine missed the PBKS encounter after falling sick that morning. Now fully fit, he impressed in back-to-back training sessions, showcasing his dual skills. KKR’s bowlers faltered last outing, and Narine’s guile could be the missing piece in their puzzle.

Sitting on a lone point after three games, pressure mounts on KKR to ignite their campaign. Narine’s all-round abilities offer hope, especially if paired with Chakravarthy, who hurt his left finger in the field against SRH but bowled overs in nets.

The update on Chakravarthy: final call at toss. Meanwhile, Cameron Green edges closer to bowling duties. Previously rested for workload management in coordination with Cricket Australia, the big-hitter has been priming in sessions and might unleash his seam skills against LSG.

Eden Gardens awaits what promises to be a high-stakes Thursday showdown.
