KKR matches rescheduled
Kolkata Knight Riders' home matches from April 12 to 25 have been rescheduled owing to the municipal elections in the city. The organisers have decided to shift those matches following a request from the police.
"There has been a change in the match schedule of the tournament on the request of the Calcutta Police, with the Calcutta Municipal elections taking place on April 18," BCCI secretary Anurag Thakur said in a statement on Tuesday.
"There will be no matches of the Kolkata Knight Riders at Eden Gardens from April 12 to 25 as per the revised schedule. Overall, the dates of three matches and timings of two other matches have been changed," Thakur added.
As per the revised schedule, the match between Knight Riders and Chennai Super Kings at the Eden, which was to be played on April 14 at 8 pm has been shifted to April 30. The timing of the match, though, remains the same.
KKR's game versus DareDevils, which was to be played on April 28, has been shifted to May 7. This match, too, will begin from 8 pm at the Eden. The Knights' away match against CSK that was supposed to be held on April 30 at the Chepauk has been advanced to April 28 (8 pm start).
