SRH vs KKR Preview
- Kane Williamson, who smashed 57 runs off 46 balls in Sunrisers Hyderabad’s triumph over Gujarat Titans, is our pick for the team’s highest run-scorer versus KKR. T.Natarajan, who took 2-34 with the ball in the previous game, is well worth backing as Sunrisers Hyderabad’s leading wicket-taker in this game.
- In KKR’s last game, Shreyas Iyer hit his first half-century of the season, and he is our pick to be their leading run-scorer against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Umesh Yadav has 10 wickets in this season and is a strong contender for KKR’s top wicket-taker in this match.
- During the 2022 IPL, Andre Russell hit 12 sixes. Our pick for the Player to Hit the Most Sixes in this match is the West Indian all-rounder.
Sunrisers Hyderabad and Kolkata Knight Riders meet in the Indian Premier League’s Match 25 on Friday evening in Mumbai. Sunrisers Hyderabad has won their last two matches after losing their first two in the competition, and KKR has won three of their last five games. The match begins at Brabourne Stadium at 19:30 local time.
Sunrisers Hyderabad has defeated Chennai Super Kings and Gujarat Titans in their last two matches. KKR will be a difficult opponent, but Sunrisers will be confident of making it three wins in a row.
KKR lost their previous match to the Delhi Capitals, but they have been one of the finest teams in the 2022 IPL so far. KKR will be hopeful of another win now that Shreyas Iyer has found his form.

In the previous match, this wicket produced 386 runs, and we expect batsmen to enjoy the surface once more. Slow bowlers should have a lot of help from the pitch.
Sunrisers Hyderabad Team News & Probable Playing XIs
Sunrisers Hyderabad kept the same XI for their win over Gujarat Titans on Monday, after finally discovering a winning formula. Washington Sundar has damaged the webbing in his bowling hand and will miss the next two matches. Therefore there will be at least one change for this game.

After defeating Mumbai Indians by 5 wickets with 24 balls to spare, KKR kept the same XI for Saturday’s 44-run loss to Delhi Capitals. We expect Aaron Finch, Australia’s white-ball captain, to make his first appearance of the season, with Sheldon Jackson replacing Sam Billings as wicket-keeper.
