KXIP vs SRH Dream11 Prediction: Kings XI Punjab and Sunrisers Hyderabad are in pretty similar situations with regards to their campaigns. So, one of the teams will receive a further dent to their play-offs hopes tonight. Both will try to avoid a defeat in the battle of equals in the evening today at Dubai. KXIP have received a late boost to their dying march with 3 wins in as many previous matches. We will preview KXIP vs SRH Dream11 contest.

In the last match against Delhi Capitals, Kings XI Punjab bowlers done well to keep them under check even after a blistering hundred from Shikhar Dhawan. Mohammad Shami was their best bowler with couple of important scalps. Spinners Glenn Maxwell and Murugan Ashwin also bowled well with a wicket each. Chasing a moderate 164 on Dubai pitch, KL Rahul and Mayank Agarwal couldn’t contribute much this time. Nicholas Pooran stamped his authority once again during the middle overs with a knock of 53 runs from 28 balls. That innings literally broke the back of the required rate as Glenn Maxwell also chipped in with his 32. Deepak Hooda and James Neesham applied finishing touches as KXIP prevailed by 5 wickets in the end.

Sunrisers Hyderabad were in desperate need of two points from their last match against Rajasthan Royals. Bowling first, SRH bowlers suffocated RR batters and sucked the life out of their innings with regular strikes. Playing his first match this year, Jason Holder was the main destructor with 3 important wickets while Rashid Khan and Vijay Shankar took one apiece to restrict Rajasthan to a total of 154 runs. In reply, openers David Warner and Jonny Bairstow ran into a firing Jofra Archer first up. Both were dismissed by the score of 16 runs and 154 already looked intimidating. But Manish Pandey and Vijay Shankar had other ideas as both first calmed things down before taking attack to the opposition. With an unbeaten stand of 140 runs, both secured valuable two points for SRH.

In head-to-head comparisons, David Warner & Co have had an upper hand over Kings XI Punjab. SRH have won on 11 occasions from 15 matches played between these two sides. In last 5 matches, SRH are having a lead of 3-2. In the first match this year, Sunrisers handed a routing to KXIP thanks to brilliance from Jonny Bairstow and David Warner at the same venue.

Pitch and Conditions

Dubai is the venue which is hosting maximum number of matches in this year’s IPL. Quite naturally, pitches would have got tired by now with plethora of matches on the same surface. But all credit to the curator here, Dubai is holding great with an equal competition between bat and ball so far. Team batting first should look to get around 160-170 to challenge the chasing side.

Sunrisers Hyderabad Team News

  • Sunrisers Hyderabad will also go unchanged from their last match on most probabilities.

All-rounders: Vijay Shankar, Jason Holder

Captain Picks

For Small Leagues

  • KL Rahul will be the most popular captaincy pick from today’s lineups. With 540 runs from 10 innings so far, he is the man to rely upon this season. His role is pretty clear: To set up a base before launching in the second half of the innings.
  • Jonny Bairstow would be having good memories of playing against the Kings. In the first fixture earlier, he played an innings of 97 runs at the same venue. No KXIP bowler looked like getting him out that evening in Dubai. With 326 runs from 10 innings, one would say he is not having a season like last year and he would be looking to set the calculations right tonight.
  • Jason Holder offers value in two dimensions and with good beginning to his IPL campaign this year, SRH may trust him more even with an elevated batting role. He took 3 wickets in his first match against Rajasthan Royals.

For Grand Leagues

  • Chris Gayle is a logical pick today keeping in mind bowling options of SRH. Rashid Khan is the biggest threat from SRH and Chris Gayle is striking him at 190.62 with 61 runs from 32 balls against him. So, Chris Gayle should fancy himself in the middle overs today.
  • Nicholas Pooran has been a revelation this year in the middle overs. What you get from is no half-hearted approach as he goes after the bowling if he sees it in his half. His tournament strike-rate of 183.20 gives you indications about his approach so far.  
  • David Warner is more than just a handy pick for the grand leagues. He is the leading run-scorer for SRH with 335 runs from 10 innings. But one thing is for certain, David Warner hasn’t looked himself till now and has struggled against quality pace bowling. With only Mohammed Shami at the disposal for KXIP, he can get a big one today.
