IPL 2017, KKR vs SRH Match Prediction: Who will win today’s match between the Kolkata Knight Riders and Sunrisers Hyderabad

IPL 2017 Playoffs, SRH vs KKR Match Prediction: Who will win today's eliminator between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Kolkata Knight Riders

Kolkata Knight Riders will face off  with Sunrisers Hyderabad in Kolkata in the first match of the day

Both KKR and SRH are in top form with two wins and a loss each so far in the competition. Kolkata in their last match against Kings XI Punjab experimented with their batting order which came out to be pretty good for them. Making Sunil Narine to open in the innings with skipper Gautam Gambhir was a master stroke as they beat the Punjab by 8 wickets.

Whereas, Sunrisers  lost their winning streak after suffering a loss in the last game against Mumbai Indians.

As KKR returned back to winning ways against Kings XI Punjab and will be looking to continue their winning start on home turf against the reigning IPL champions. The form of their openers has meant that the middle-order has largely been devoid of any responsibilities.

Sunrisers Hyderabad might have lost their last game but the kind of game play that has been shown by David Warner,Moises  Henriques, Rashid Khan and Yuvraj Singh is not so good. Warner is back in form while Henriques’ batting has been a trouble for the opponents. Rashid Khan has been pick of the bowlers and the right-arm leggie has emerged as a match-winner for his franchise.

The Edens pitch in the last game didn’t really behaved in the manner it generally does. With some bounce for the quick bowlers on the track, Umesh Yadav would be looking to continue his form at home.

Sunrisers Hyderabad’s opening pair is providing the much needed starts to them. The middle order needs to take the responsibility of producing some decent stuff with the willow. Yuvraj Singh failed to leave a mark in the last game he played and would now be expected to repeat the first match’s feat that he played against RCB.

Predicted score: 175+

Gautam Gambhir may not be playing for India regularly but his impressive IPL form has been something to be hold. He already has two fifties in this year’s tournament and with Manish Pandey also in form, KKR have a formidable top-order that is also in form.

Predicted score: 180+

David Warner continues to be in ridiculous form. Shikhar Dhawan has shown glimpses of coming good as well and Yuvraj Singh scored his fastest IPL fifty in the opener. With Ben Cutting as well to finish the innings, SRH have all the ingredients to get a huge total on a good batting surface.

Predicted winners: Kolkata Knight Riders
