KKR vs SRH Dream11 prediction: 3 differentials you can pick in today’s IPL 2024 match - March 23, 2024

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) will square off with Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in the third match of the IPL 2024 at Eden Gardens in Kolkata.

Both Kolkata Knight Riders and Sunrisers Hyderabad had a disappointing season last year as they couldn’t make it to the playoffs. Knight Riders finished seventh with six wins and eight losses, while Sunrisers ended at the bottom of the points table with just four wins.

Kolkata will be relying on the Australian pacer Mitchell Starc, whom they bought for a whopping 24.75 crore, the most expensive player in an IPL auction. On the other hand, Hyderabad will look forward to their captain Pat Cummins, who was the second-most expensive buy of the auction, as well as Travis Head, the centurion of the 2023 World Cup final.

On that note, let’s take a look at the top three differential picks for the upcoming KKR vs SRH Dream11 match.
