The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has now officially declared the postponement of Match No. 19 of the TATA Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 between Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). The originally scheduled match on Sunday, April 6 at Eden Gardens, Kolkata, will be held on Tuesday, April 8 at 3:30 PM IST at the same ground.

The alteration is in response to a plea by Kolkata Police to Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) for deploying large numbers of personnel across the city for the celebration of Ram Navami on April 6. The IPL committee, acting on it, had initially thought of moving the match to Guwahati for one day. But KKR were adamant about keeping their home game at Eden Gardens.

After negotiations, the match has now been officially confirmed to stay in Kolkata, but with a new date and start time. The game will now be the opener of a double-header on April 8, when Punjab Kings play Chennai Super Kings in the evening at New Chandigarh, as was originally scheduled.

Due to this change, there will be a single match on April 6, with the Gujarat Titans visiting Sunrisers Hyderabad at 7:30 PM IST in Hyderabad.

The remainder of the IPL 2025 schedule is unaffected.
