IPL 2026 KKR VS GT Live Streaming: It will be a battle for survival for the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) as they return home to face the resilient Gujarat Titans (GT), seeking to finish in the top two of the points table, at the Eden Gardens, Kolkata, on Saturday (May 16, 2026). For KKR, the 2026 IPL season has been yet another inconsistent and underwhelming year under Ajinkya Rahane. The story was somewhat the same for Kolkata in 2025 as well, where they finished eighth on the table. KKR had to wait till their seventh match (halfway stage) of the season to register their first win and has looked far from a settled side throughout the campaign. Their team selection and batting order seem to have hampered their rhythm.Their brief revival, which brought four consecutive wins starting with the victory over Rajasthan Royals in their last home match on April 19, ended with a defeat to Royal Challengers Bengaluru after sloppy fielding and a batting masterclass by Virat Kohli.The Ajinkya Rahane-led side now has three matches remaining and can reach a maximum of 15 points if they win all of them, but even that may not guarantee a playoff berth as qualification would then depend on other results. Another defeat, however, would virtually end their campaign.In contrast, the Shubman Gill-led Gujarat Titans have looked like one of the most complete teams this season, winning five matches in a row to draw level on points with table-toppers Royal Challengers Bengaluru. GT's surge has been primarily fueled by a bowling attack that has performed exceptionally well at crucial moments.Kagiso Rabada has produced two Player-of-the-Match performances during the streak; Jason Holder has earned two awards himself, while Rashid Khan appears to have rediscovered his old magic. Their bowling has blended perfectly with a strong top-order led by Gill and Sai Sudharsan.Sudharsan has once again been among the most prolific batters of the season. After winning the Orange Cap last year with 759 runs, the left-hander has already amassed 501 runs this season and trails current leader Heinrich Klaasen by just seven runs. He has struck five fifties in his last six innings, including a century.Gill has also demonstrated exceptional form, consistently leading with his performances. Meanwhile, Washington Sundar has provided valuable stability in the middle order, quietly playing the role of an anchor when needed. With league-stage fixtures against Kolkata Knight Riders and Chennai Super Kings still to come, Gujarat will be eager to cement a top-two finish, which would hand them the crucial playoff advantage of an additional opportunity to reach the final.IPL 2026 KKR vs GT Today Match LiveHOW TO WATCH Kolkata Knight Riders Vs Gujarat Titans IN US AND CANADAMatch: Kolkata Knight Riders Vs Gujarat Titans Date: May 16, SaturdayVenue: Eden Gardens, Kolkata Channel: Willow TVStreaming: Willow TV App/Fubo/Sling TVStart Time: 10:00 AM Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) in the US and CanadaHOW TO WATCH Punjab Kings Vs Lucknow Super GiantsIN UKMatch: Kolkata Knight Riders Vs Gujarat Titans Date: May 16, SaturdayVenue: Eden Gardens, Kolkata Channel/Streaming: Sky Sports and Sky Go appStart Time: 3:00 PM (British Summer Time - BST)KKR vs GT: TeamsKolkata Knight Riders: Ajinkya Rahane (c), Rinku Singh, Angkrish Raghuvanshi, Manish Pandey, Rovman Powell, Rahul Tripathi, Finn Allen, Tejasvi Singh, Tim Seifert, Sunil Narine, Anukul Roy, Ramandeep Singh, Cameron Green, Sarthak Ranjan, Daksh Kamra, Rachin Ravindra, Navdeep Saini, Vaibhav Arora, Umran Malik, Matheesha Pathirana, Kartik Tyagi, Akash Deep, Varun Chakaravarthy, Prashant Solanki.Gujarat Titans: Shubman Gill (c), Anuj Rawat, Arshad Khan, Ashok Sharma, Jos Buttler, Connor Esterhuizen, Gurnoor Brar, Jason Holder, Kulwant Khejroliya, Kumar Kushagra, Mohammed Siraj, Glenn Phillips, Prasidh Krishna, Kagiso Rabada, Rashid Khan, Sai Kishore, Sai Sudharsan, Shahrukh Khan, Ishant Sharma, Nishant Sindhu, Manav Suthar, Rahul Tewatia, Washington Sundar, Luke Wood, Jayant Yadav.
