The table toppers Sunrisers Hyderabad will take on the struggling Kings XI Punjab in the 46th match of the IPL. It will be an important game for SRH as they look to grab a place in the top 2 at the end of the group stage to get an extra chance to qualify for the final. For KXIP, who are placed at number 7, it will be a chance to try out their benched players as the team is out of the race for a playoff spot.

SRH claimed a comfortable victory against KXIP when these two teams battled earlier in the league. The strong bowling of SRH restricted KXIP to a mediocre score of 143. Mustafizur bowled a wonderful spell of 9/2 in 4 overs. They then chased the target down in the 18th over easily thanks to an explosive half century from David Warner.

SRH have had a tremendous tournament so far and are a strong contender to grab one of the top two spots in the points table. David Warner has been magnificent both with the bat as well as with the captaincy. He has marshalled his troops beautifully. He has led the team with an example. He is the third highest run-getter in the league so far with 515 runs in 11 matches and has batted at a strike rate of 159.44.

Shikhar Dhawan has climbed the ladder after failures earlier in the league. Now he has picked up good form and reached number 7 in the list of highest run-getters. The batting has been heavily dependent on Warner and Dhawan. Rest haven’t been required too much. Now with Yuvraj’s inclusion, the middle order has become stronger.

Their bowling has been the best in the tournament. Especially Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Mustafizur Rehman have been nightmares for the batsmen. Both are amongst the top 10 wicket takers in the league. Mustafizur has bowled with an excellent economy rate of 6.5. With Ashish Nehra and Barinder Sran to back up the two, SRH have been able to defend low scores as well.

For KXIP, it is the chance to try out the players who have been warming the benches so far. Not much has gone right for them. The big guns Maxwell and Miller have failed miserably. Apart from Mohit and Sandeep Sharma and occasionally, Axar Patel, there hasn’t been too much contribution from rest of the bowlers.

Murali Vijay has battled hard since he has been given the job of captaincy. He has played some superb innings off late. But there has been no other batsman who has helped him in winning the games. They needed a lot more from Maxwell and Miller like they performed in previous seasons.

They can now become potential party spoilers for other teams. They defeated Mumbai Indians in the last game heavily. They halted a strong MI batting to just 124 and then chased it down in the 17th over. SRH would have to be careful against them as they would want to claim the crucial 2 points from this game.

The match will be broadcasted live on SuperSport in Africa, Geo Super in Pakistan, Maasranga in Bangladesh, Set Max and Sony Six in Bhutan, ESPN in the US, and Sky Sports in the UK. The live streaming of the match can also be watched on CricketGateway.com in Australia.
