Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) take on Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in a crucial game on a Sunday afternoon in Dubai. SRH is out of the playoff race while KKR need to win their remaining two games to give themselves the best chance of making the playoffs. Out of 12 games so far, KKR have won three and lost two. A loss against SRH would certainly all but end KKR’s hopes of reaching the last four.
SRH having been eliminated from the contest, can play spoilsport for the teams against whom they are playing the final few games. They have already beaten Rajasthan Royals in one of their previous games in the UAE. The inclusion of Jason Roy have worked wonders for the team so far. Rashid Khan’s form has been uneven so far and so has been Bhuvneshwar Kumar.
