Aiden Markram-led Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) are riding high on the back of a win against Delhi Capitals in the previous outing. The orange outfit will host Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in match 47 of the ongoing IPL 2023 at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad on Thursday in May 4.
Speaking about their campaign thus far, both franchises have languished at the bottom half of the IPL Points Table and will need to get back to winning consistently to make place in the play-offs. KKR are placed eighth with three wins in nine outings whereas SRH have as many wins but have played eight matches and are in the ninth place.
In their last five meetings, KKR has won three times to SRH’s two. While SRH have the momentum, KKR will look for an improved outing and clinch the two points in the away match.

Rahmanullah Gurbaz
After his return to the setup, Gurbaz took the Titans by storm in the previous game as he hammered 81 off mere 39 balls. His blazing innings included seven maximums and five boundaries at an aggressive strike rate of 207.69. The Afghan batter will look to maintain his form and target the SRH bowling unit in the next game.
Probable best bowler
Varun Chakaravarthy:
Despite leaking 42 runs in his four overs against the Titans, Varun Chakaravarthy has the potential to snatch the game away at any given point. While SRH can counter the spinner, he will look for an improved outing and deliver the goods for KKR.
