SRH vs KOL Dream11 Prediction: Sunrisers are coming on the back of a win against Delhi. They also defeated Kolkata in the earlier fixture this season and are expected to get the better of them once again in this match. On the other side, Kolkata does not have resources to hit the weak point of the men in orange and that might make them fall short once again.
Match: Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Kolkata Knight Riders, Match 47
Venue: Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad
Time: 7:30 PM IST
Hyderabad is coming on the back of a win against Delhi, meanwhile Kolkata got outplayed by Gujarat at the Eden Gardens.
Hyderabad failed to chase 145 in the last home match against Delhi.
Both the teams scored more than 200 when they met last time earlier this season.
Heinrich Klaasen is coming on the back of a match winning half century against Delhi. Overall, striking at more than 180 this season.
Andre Russell has a bowling strike rate of 12.44 against SRH in his IPL career. Moreover, he took three wickets with the ball in the last game against SRH earlier this season.
Mayank Markande has easily been the best bowler of Hyderabad this season. Moreover, Kolkata also is averaging just 18 against right arm leg spinners this season with 11 dismissals.
Nitish Rana has the highest runs (441) against SRH as a Kolkata player in IPL history.
Rana has three half centuries in his last five outings against the men in orange, including a 75 in the last game between these two sides earlier this season.
Venkatesh Iyer has 31 runs off 44 and got out four times against Kolkata in his short IPL career.
Left arm spinners and left arm seamers have been the biggest problems for the batters of Hyderabad franchise this season. Kolkata doesn’t have any left arm spinner and Kulwant Khejroliya is the only left arm seam option.
Jason Roy has two half centuries in his last three innings. Gurbaz scored 81 in the last game against Gujarat. Both of them are expected to open the innings for Kolkata in this game.
There is also a good possibility we get to see a couple of big changes in the SRH line-up. Change your XIs accordingly.

Poor form alert (SRH)
Markram has 45 off 47 in last four innings
Tripathi has 53 off 53 in last four innings
Brook has 34 off 36 in the last four innings.
Marco Jansen has 2 wickets in the last 9 overs.
Poor form alert (KOL)
Narine has 1 wicket in the last 13 overs
Venkatesh has an average of 15.5 in the last four matches
N Jagadeesan has 47 off 47 in the last three innings combined.
Harry Brook has been very disappointing for the men in orange as he has managed to score 163 runs at an average around 23 in eight matches so far.
However, his only good innings this season came against Kolkata in the earlier fixture at the Eden Gardens where he scored an unbeaten 100.
Since the century against Brook, he has only managed 34 runs in four innings.
His highest dismissals has come against left arm seamers this season and Kolkata is unlikely to field their eleven with any left arm seamer (Khejroliya is the only option).
Rahul Tripathi has only one half century this season so far.
His numbers against the pacers have been the worst this season.
However, he is too good a player to remain quiet for this long and can be a worthy pick against Kolkata’s spin heavy bowling attack.
Umran Malik has only 4 wickets in six matches he played this season.
Umran will be a risky pick in this match but Kolkata averages around 16 against high pace bowlers and maybe picking can be a huge difference maker in this match.
Rahmanullah Gurbaz is coming on the back of a brilliant innings against Gujarat, scoring 81.
However, Gurbaz can be a risky choice considering SRH might use Akeal Hosein against him. He does not have any impressive numbers against left-arm spinners in both T20Is and T20s.

Mayank has an average of 6 while batting first and 36 when bats second.
Markram vs Akeal
Markram scored his only half century against Kolkata this season. In addition, it is advisable to pick him if SRH bats first.
