Most probable Playing XI:
Sunrisers Hyderabad:
David Warner (C), Jonny Bairstow (WK), Manish Pandey, Kane Williamson, Vijay Shankar, Priyam Garg, Abdul Samad, Rashid Khan, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, T Natarajan, Sandeep Sharma.
Of Kolkata Knight Riders:
Shubman Gill, Rahul Tripathi, Nitish Rana, Eoin Morgan (C), Dinesh Karthik (WK), Shakib Al Hasan/Sunil Narine, Andre Russell, Pat Cummins, Kamlesh Nagarkoti, Prasidh Krishna, Varun Chakravarthy/Harbhajan Singh
Pitch Report:
As we saw in the inaugural encounter of IPL 2021, the Chennai track is not a completely bowling-friendly surface. It has enough purchase for the batsmen as well, provided they take their time to find their footing on the track.
Best Choice for Wicket-keepers:
Jonny Bairstow wasn’t as effective in the T20I games, but scored nearly 350 runs in the last edition of this competition. He was in magical form in the recently concluded ODI series against India.
Best Choice for Batsmen:
David Warner is a Sunrisers Hyderabad’s leading run-scorer of IPL 2020, he has played 50-over and Test matches recently. But the Aussie dynamo is extremely dangerous in this format of the game and we all are aware of his capabilities. In his last 5 IPL games, he scored 60+ runs on two occasions.
Shubman Gill is also just like Warner. He hasn’t played T20 cricket lately, but he was Kolkata Knight Riders’ leading run-scorer in the previous edition. He scored 25+ runs in all of his last 3 IPL games.
Best Choice for All-Rounders:
Andre Russel has picked up 5 wickets and has also scored 70+ runs in his last 5 games. His last T20 outing was in the Lanka Premier League, where he donned the Colombo Kings jersey.
Shakib Al Hasan’s inclusion gives KKR a great balance, since he can be used anywhere in the batting order and he is also a bowling option for the powerplays. He played well for Gemcon Khulna in the Bangabandhu Cup 2020.
Best Choice for Bowlers:
Rashid Khan is the Afghan spin sensation that can get the ball to turn on any given condition. He has picked up 6 wickets in his last 3 T20 games. The MA Chidambaram track didn’t turn as much as many expected it to in the first game of IPL 2021, but the pitch doesn’t matter in the case of Rashid .
Pat Cummins picked up 6 wickets in his last 2 games, which included 4 wickets against Rajasthan Royals. He had his struggles in the last season, but he still finished as KKR’s second-highest wicket-taker.
Best Choice for Captain and Vice-Captain:
David Warner is a Sunrisers Hyderabad’s leading run-scorer of IPL 2020, he has played 50-over and Test matches recently. But the Aussie dynamo is extremely dangerous in this format of the game and we all are aware of his capabilities. In his last 5 IPL games, he scored 60+ runs on two occasions.
Shubman Gill is also just like Warner. He hasn’t played T20 cricket lately, but he was Kolkata Knight Riders’ leading run-scorer in the previous edition. He scored 25+ runs in all of his last 3 IPL games.
So, the best Playing XI for SRH vs KKR on Dream 11:
David Warner (C), Kane Williamson, Jonny Bairstow (WK), Nitish Rana, Shubman Gill (VC), Shakib Al Hasan, Andre Russell, Pat Cummins, T Natarajan, Kamlesh Nagarkoti, Rashid Khan
