Analysis

Kolkata Knight Riders has a very powerful batting lineup including the likes of Venkatesh Iyer and the captain Nitish Rana, who showcased their six hitting prowess against a quality GT bowling attack and scored a 100-run stand in no time. But the show stealer of the same matchup in Ahmedabad was none other than Rinku Singh, who smashed 5 consecutive sixes off Yash Dayal to hand KKR a very unlikely win. Even though Andre Russell has yet to find his batting form, Kolkata are looking very competent with the bat as a unit. In the bowling department, the spin trio of Sunil Narine, Varun Chakravarthy, and the youngster Suyash Sharma have been taking wickets in clumps for KKR.


Sunrisers Hyderabad batting unit found its mojo in their previous match at home against PBKS as their captain Aiden Markram and Rahul Tripathi shared a 100-run unbeaten stand to achieve victory. The English international Harry Brook and Mayank Agarwal are struggling to score runs quickly for Hyderabad in the early stages of the IPL 2023, but they are expected to come good very soon as their quality with the bat is undeniable. The return of Marco Jansen from South Africa has rejuvenated the bowling attack of SRH. But the most pleasing surprise of their previous match was the 4-wicket haul of Mayank Markande on his SRH debut.
