Punjab Kings are expected to win this match against Sunrisers Hyderabad. PBKS are coming into this match on the back of consecutive wins. They have a pretty strong batting unit and their bowling line-up is pretty effecctive as well.
Shikhar Dhawan: Shikhar Dhawan has had a terrific start to his 2023 season. He looked in great touch in both the games he played so far. In addition, he is coming on the back of an unbeaten 86 in the last game against RR. Moreover, he is very much aware of this ground where he has over 1300 run at an average of almost 35.
Nathan Ellis: Nathan Ellis is coming on the back of a four wicket haul against Rajasthan Royals away from home. He will be another great captaincy choice going forward to this game. In two games, Ellis has five wickets in the season so far. In addition, in his last outing against SRH last year, Ellis grabbed three wickets.
Fazalhaq Farooqi: Fazalhaq Farooqi will be the best captaincy choice from the SRH unit. The Afghan seamer took three wickets in the first game against Rajasthan at this venue. He bowls in almost every phases of the game, making him a go to bowler and speaks a lot about his abilities to take wickets.
Heinrich Klaasen: The South African batter has not played a single game in the season but it will be worth taking a risk to put him in your XI if opportunity arrives in front of him. His abilities to attack in the middle overs will be very key for SRH to tackle their scars against spin.
Harpreet Brar: Harpreet Brar is the best differential pick you can have in this match. The left arm spinner took three wickets in his last outing against the men in orange. In addition, SRH is a right-handed batters dominated batting line-up, which makes a better case for Harpreet.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar: Bhuvneshwar Kumar is one of the first names in the SRH line-up. It is advisable to avoid picking him considering his current poor form and also there are better options to be included in your Dream11.
