Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Kolkata Knight Riders at a Glance
Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Kolkata Knight Riders Team Preview
Sunrisers Hyderabad
Sunrisers Hyderabad has struggled this season. They have not only lost the majority of their home games, but they are also in the bottom half of the table with only 6 points from 8 games.
There is no denying the enormous talent and abilities of players such as Brook, Klaasen, and Captain Markram. These three, however, cannot be expected to win every game. Now, these three are the primary actors, with Abhishek Sharma at the helm looking good. Tripathi and Mayank Agarwal are inconsistent, and their failure in the top order has a significant impact on the innings.
Kolkata Knight Riders
One of Kolkata’s last three games was an away game. The other two were home games in which they were defeated. Rana took over as team captain after Shreyas Iyer was injured. While it is natural to question Rana’s leadership abilities, this is nothing new for KKR. In recent years, they’ve been one of the most inconsistent teams in the IPL. With the older finisher Russell struggling on times, the Knight Riders were unable to compensate with more consistent batters. Russell hasn’t been the finisher he used to be.
KKR, on the other hand, has Roy and Gurbaz who may offer a spectacular start, but there is no one consistent in the middle order who can produce a massive knock. Venkatesh Iyer’s touch faded after his hundred. Nitish Rana hasn’t played a responsible middle-order inning in which he could carry the game deep and end on a good note. Rinku Singh has been silent since his concluding deed against GT, except for one solid knock. Down the order, David Wiese has shown some promise with several strong finishes. However, KKR’s lineup is inconsistent overall.

Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium Hyderabad Delhi
Teams batting first have won three of the four IPL matches at this venue this season. It is a high-scoring facility that recently witnessed a low-scoring game in which spinners dominated. Given how unreliable both teams’ batting is, batting first and putting runs on the board would be in their best interests.
On match day, the weather will be partly cloudy with a high of 31 degrees Celsius.
It is a batting-friendly pitch that also provides some assistance to spinners.
