Punjab Kings vs Sunrisers Hyderabad - Preview and Team News

The Kings haven't had a playoff appearance in the last nine seasons and will be desperate to achieve that in this one. They have been inconsistent over the years and it is going to be a big test for them against the dominant batting unit of SRH. Shikhar Dhawan is likely to field the same team from the last match but someone like Rilee Rossouw can come in to replace Sikandar Raza.

SRH have alternate wins this season and needs a win to get into the playoff spots. The Hyderabad outfit has showcased their batting prowess already when they posted the highest score in IPL history against Mumbai Indians, scoring 277. The Punjab match has historically been a decent one for them as the Orange Army has won 14 out of 21 meetings.

SRH may persist with Nitish Reddy, who played a decent knock at the flag end of their chase against CSK. Mayank Agarwal is likely to continue to stay on the bench.
