Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) will take on Sunrisers Hyderabad(SRH) today at Eden Gardens, Kolkata.
Sunrisers Hyderabad(SRH): Sunrisers Hyderabad is one of the most successful teams in IPL. SRH is the only team in IPL to qualify for the Playoffs consecutively 5 times from 2016-2020. But things aren’t the same for the Sunrisers from the past three seasons with their Star player and Captain David Warner leaving to Delhi, releasing key players like Kane Williamson, and Rashid Khan made them weak and SRH failed to qualify for playoffs for the past three seasons. Performance struggles and weak management decisions have tormented SRH and the Orange Army resulting in them finishing at the bottom of the table in the last season. But this year might be a turnaround for them as SRH made drastic changes in their squad and added more foreign firepower to their side. By buying Australian Captain Pat Cummins for a record-breaking 20.5 crores adding stability to the line-up and a Captaincy. Last year was a fabulous year for Cummins winning the World Test Championship and ODI World Cup he proved himself as a prominent and quality leader which made him SRH captain in place of Aiden Markram. SRH bought Srilankan Captain and Spin- Allrounder Hasaranga who is unavailable today. With many Foreign players in their cabin let’s see which four make it to the playing 11. Travis Head is likely to open with Abhishek Sharma with Markram, Tripati, and Klaasen in the middle. Bhuvneshwar Kumar leading the attack with Cummins, Natarajan, and Mayank Markande.
SRH probable playing XI: Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma, Rahul Tripathi, Aiden Markram, Heinrich Klaasen, Abdul Samad/Nitish Reddy, Shahbaz Ahmed, Pat Cummins, Mayank Markande, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, T Natarajan
impact sub: Umran Malik, Washington Sundar, Mayank Agarwal
Kolkata Knight Riders(KKR): KKR, led by the ever-reliable Shreyas Iyer, will be looking to capitalize on their home advantage. Their batting boasts firepower in the form of Andre Russell and the mystery spin of Sunil Narine. The bowling attack is bolstered by the return of the lethal Mitchell Starc alongside the wily Varun Chakravarthy. Historically, KKR holds the upper hand in head-to-head encounters, having won 16 out of the 24 matches played against SRH. However, with both teams boasting significant changes in leadership and personnel, this match promises to be a wide-open contest. Inconsistent form of Venkatesh Iyer at the top. Spin options could be limited if Varun Chakravarthy doesn’t play. Fielding might be a concern with a relatively young squad. Nitish Rana who is a prominent run scorer against SRH is a big plus point for KKR. With home ground advantage KKR might win easily against SRH.
KKR Predicted XI: Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Venkatesh Iyer, Shreyas Iyer, Nitish Rana, Rinku Singh, Andre Russell, Sunil Narine, Mitchell Starc, Chetan Sakariya, Varun Chakravarthy, Suyash Sharma.
impact sub: Vaibhav Arora, Chetan Sakariya, Manish Pandey, Sakib Hussain, Anukul Roy
