Pitch Report

As mentioned above, the game is taking place in the afternoon, which makes the spinner’s job even more crucial. The ball will indeed turn in the middle overs, and the likes of Rashid Khan and Varun Chakravarthy must be ecstatic after knowing the fact. However, the toss-winning captain is likely to bat first as the temperature will cool down in the latter half of the match. Also, batting under sun and floodlights one after another is not an easy job.

With both sides coming off a convincing loss, predicting favourites will not be an easy job. However, SRH players, who last took the field on October 13, have got enough relaxation time and will step into the game fresh. On the other hand, KKR must rectify their mistakes to get the favourable result.
