The entire nation saw the victory of Rising Pune Supergiant (RPS) on May 16 against the Mumbai Indians (MI) in the Qualifier 1 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 10 after which they successfully reached to the finale. And today, on May 17, the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) will play Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru at the eliminators.
Being the defending champions, SRH however, finished at the third position in the points table with 17 points while KKR, despite a fabulous beginning, lost their rhythm in the last few games and grabbed the 4th spot in the points with 16 points. Thus, they will be facing each other tonight in the eliminators and the losing team will be ruled out of the tournament. While the winners will have another chance to try their luck to get into the finale only if they defeat MI in the qualifier 2 on May 19.
Ahead of the eliminators, both the teams were spotted sweating out during the net sessions. Both the teams also shared some of those pictures on the social media while SRH opener Shikhar Dhawan took to his twitter account and share his net practice video. He also wrote,”Good batting practice before tomorrow’s game.”
