An unwell Sunil Narine will not feature in the Rajasthan Royals vs Kolkata Knight Riders IPL 2025 match in Guwahati on Wednesday.

“Sunil Narine misses out, he’s not well. Moeen Ali comes in,” Rahane said after winning toss and opting to bowl.

Narine has been a key player for KKR over the years, not only as a spinner but also opens the batting for the team.

In the opening game against Royal Challengers Bengaluru last week, Narine scored 44 off 26 balls and later picked one wicket while giving away 27 runs in his four overs.
