KKR, currently placed sixth with 13 points following six wins, as many defeats and one washed out game, have already been ruled out of contention for the playoffs this year.

The three-time IPL winners KKR will play their final league match against Delhi Capitals, also out of the playoffs race, in Kolkata on Sunday.

The 21-year-old Raghuvanshi has had a successful run in this IPL, finishing with 422 runs in 13 matches at a strike rate of 146.52 with five half-centuries and an average of 42.20.
