KKR vs SRH | IPL T20 Match 49 | 03-10-2021 19:30|1|1| Preview & Stats Added | ℹ️ Match Finished

• Venkatesh Iyer hit 67 from 49 balls in Friday’s defeat against Punjab Kings. We are backing him to be KKR’s highest run scorer against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Sunil Narine has taken wickets in the last four matches and is our pick for KKR’s top wicket taker in this match.
• Wriddhiman Saha has hit 101 runs in the last four games and is a strong choice for Sunrisers Hyderabad’s leading run scorer against KKR. With the ball, Jason Holder impressed with 3-27 against CSK on Thursday and is our recommendation for Sunrisers’ top wicket taker in this game.
• Sunil Narine has chipped in with cameo performances with the bat and ball in both the CPL and IPL recently. We are backing him to put in a strong all-round performance and take the Player of The Match Award.

Cloudy conditions with highs of 33 degrees for this evening fixture in Dubai.

🏟️ Pitch:
Pace bowler Arshdeep Singh and spinner Varun Chakravarthy were the leading bowlers and took 3 and 2 wickets in Dubai in the last game on Friday. Bowlers have had the upper hand in recent matches at the venue.

 Toss Prediction: 

Batting first in Dubai after winning the toss has been done by a few captains since the UAE leg of the tournament began. We expect Sunrisers Hyderabad to bat first irrespective of who wins the toss.

 KKR Team News: 

Lockie Ferguson lost his place in the KKR XI for the game against Punjab Kings on Friday. He was replaced by Tim Seifert who came in and bolstered the batting line-up. Eoin Morgan’s team are in 4th position but will probably need to win both of their final group stage games to qualify for the play-offs.

 Player Form Sheet: 

 Kolkata Knight Riders: 

It is a brand new surface, a fresh pitch and there is a good covering of grass, which means that there will enough pace on it. This is the slickest deck in the UAE. The track is a bit coarse and that will give the bowlers something to work with. Some grip. Batters like Venkatesh Iyer are going to love this pitch as it will come on a bit better than at the other venues, reckon Danny Morrison and Nick Knight.
