Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) would be hoping to displace Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) from the top of the points table when they will take on Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) in Match No 16 of the Indian Premier League 2018 season at Mohali on April 19.

SRH are currently at No 2, having won all three matches so far. KKR, with a better net run rate, are at No 1. Hyderabad have won three games in a row and would be hoping to continue the momentum. On the other hand, Punjab have registered two wins in the three matches they’ve played so far.

Before the high-voltage clash between KXIP and SRH, let’s have a look at a few interesting stats.

Of the players currently playing in both squads, SRH’s opening batsman Shikhar Dhawan has the most runs (248 runs)
With 17 wickets and a best of 5/19, Bhuvneshwar Kumar is the bowler with the best stats between the two teams
David Miller has an average of 34.80, a strike rate of 139.20 and the best score of 89* against SRH
With 10 catches and 2 runouts, David Miller has inflicted the most dismissals between the two teams (12 dismissals)
Kings XI Punjab have not enjoyed the best of times against Sunrisers Hyderabad, with only 2 wins from 10 games
David Miller needs to hit one six to become the batsman with most sixes for KXIP side. He is at No 2 with 78 sixes. Glenn Maxwell is at No 1 with the same number of sixes but he played fewer matches than Miller.
SRH’s wicket-keeper Wriddhiman Saha needs to take 3 more catches to be the player with 9th most catches in T20s. Saha is currently at No 10 with 85 catches.

The match between KXIP and SHR will start at 8 PM IST, the toss would be held at 7:30 PM IST.
