Kolkata Knight Riders will be facing the Sunrisers Hyderabad in the first playoff of the Indian Premier League at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmadabad, a high-octane game between two quality teams. Hyderabad defeated Punjab in the last game and then saw the Rajasthan game abandoned due to rain to make a late entry in the top two. Opponents Kolkata were the table toppers and the standout performers in the tournament. They have a finely balanced squad and that has worked wonders for them. The two sides met during their opening game of the season respectively with Kolkata winning by 4 runs. With both the teams not playing at this stage of the campaign for some time, their ability to absorb pressure will be tested. Harry Kane Extends Bayern Munich’s Support to Kolkata Knight Riders Ahead of KKR vs SRH IPL 2024 Qualifier 1, Says ‘Wishing All the Knights…’ (Watch Video).

Nitish Rana is fully fit and likely to be an impact substitute for Kolkata while Anukul Roy and Vaibhav Arora will fight for a place in the playing eleven. Sunil Narine and Rahmanullah Gurbaz will open the innings and the duo needs to get a good start. With the likes of Shreyas Iyer, Venkatesh Iyer, Rinku Singh, and Andre Russell in the team, Kolkata has the strongest middle order in the tournament.

Vijayakanth Viyaskanth has done well in the games played for Hyderabad and he is likely to retain his place in the side. The super explosive starts provided by Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma have been the hallmark of this team’s success and if the two openers can replicate that form this evening, they will become unstoppable. Pat Cummins and Bhuvneshwar Kumar will be the wicket-taking options for the side. Sunil Narine, Shreyas Iyer, Andre Russell and Other Kolkata Knight Riders Players Sweat It Out in Nets Ahead of KKR vs SRH IPL 2024 Qualifier 1 (Watch Video).
