KKR vs SRH Match Preview:

Kolkata's top-order has been very inconsistent. Shreyas Iyer scored a fifty in the last game and would look to continue with where he left in this game as well. Andre Russell is the key player for KKR. 

Sunil Narine has been very economical this season. Umesh Yadav has been outstanding in the powerplay and Pat Cummins is, well Pat Cummins. 

Hyderabad will have a boost in confidence in watching Abhishek Sharma and Kane Williamson among runs. If Rahul Tripathi is available then he will be the key player for them. Either Nicholas Pooran or Aiden Markram are expected to have a good game. 

Washington Sundar's injury is a big blow for SRH. The management might go for Jagadeesh Suchith in place of Sundar in the playing XI due to his ability to bat.
