Yes, Sunrisers Hyderabad have never won at the iconic ground, that is what David Warner and Sunrisers Hyderabad should worry about. Sunil Narine took the Indian Premier League 10 by storm, not with the ball but with the bat and that will worry the visitors. But, this on paper is Kolkata Knight Riders toughest challenge. David Warner’s SRH have been in great form, even Yuvraj Singh is in form. KKR have a settled Gautam Gambhir at the top who is more than happy to play the sheet anchor’s role and then you have your ‘real’ opener in Robin Uthappa who showed that he can still belt the ball in the last game. Both the camps are a happy place but tomorrow’s battle is going to be a mouth-watering clash and for certain both the teams are up for it.
It will be interesting to see whether Piyush Chawla will continue playing or will Kuldeep Yadav make a comeback. The match will be played at the Eden Gardens under blistering heat hence we expect KKR could play Shakib-al-Hasan as well. But it is just a guess. One thing that is certain before the start of play is the fact that whoever wins the toss will opt to field.
