Info: 

  • Sai Sudharsan has posted scores of 37 and 45 in this IPL season, showcasing his talent as a promising left-handed batsman at just 22 years old. We predict he’ll shine as Gujarat Titans’ top run-getter against Sunrisers Hyderabad. On the bowling front, Rashid Khan, who claimed two wickets against CSK, stands out as a reliable choice to lead Gujarat Titans’ wicket-taking efforts in this upcoming match.
  • Heinrich Klaasen has been in stellar form, notching up scores of 63 and an unbeaten 80 in his two outings so far. As a result, we anticipate him to be the leading run-scorer for Sunrisers Hyderabad against Gujarat Titans. Pat Cummins, having showcased impressive variations in the previous game, emerges as a formidable candidate to spearhead Sunrisers Hyderabad’s wicket-taking efforts on Sunday.
  • Furthermore, with an impressive tally of 15 sixes in the tournament thus far, Heinrich Klaasen emerges as our top recommendation for hitting the most sixes in this particular fixture.

Toss Predictions

Despite Gujarat Titans batting first and emerging victorious in the previous game at this venue, it’s our forecast that both teams will opt to field first in the upcoming match in Ahmedabad.

Weather & Pitch Report

Weather: 

The match is expected to commence under clear, sunny skies, with no clouds expected to roll in after sunset. Humidity levels are anticipated to remain below 25%, while the temperature is set to hover around 34 degrees Celsius throughout the duration of the game.

Pitch Report:

A competitive score is projected to fall within the range of 180-185, aided by the lesser presence of dew in the outfield compared to the evening game last weekend. This condition is anticipated to favor the spinners, especially during the initial innings of the match.

Team NEWS: 

GT Team News: 

Considering that all of Gujarat Titans’ bowling attack conceded between 8.75 to 13.50 runs per over in Chennai, it’s anticipated that the bowling unit will face scrutiny leading up to this match. However, apart from Mohammed Shami, who is sidelined for the season, they have a fully fit squad available for selection. 

SRH Team News: 

Following their remarkable victory in the high-scoring thriller in Hyderabad on Wednesday evening, Sunrisers have swiftly risen to prominence as the team to watch in the tournament. It would be quite unexpected if there were any alterations to their lineup ahead of this fixture.

Winning Chances:

Our forecast anticipates a closely fought battle, with Gujarat Titans emerging victorious.

Gujarat Titans to beat Sunrisers Hyderabad.

Gujarat Titans a 60% chance to win this match 

Sunrisers Hyderabad have a 40% chance to win this match 

Key Players: 

Gujarat Titans 

Sai Sudharsan 

The batsman at number three showcased impressive form in the previous season and has continued to perform well in the current campaign. Nevertheless, he is yet to achieve his first half-century of this season leading up to this match.

Shubman Gill 

The captain appeared to face difficulties in the field against CSK, but his batting prowess remains intact. In the last game at this venue, he managed to score 31 runs from 22 balls, showcasing his smooth hitting ability.

Rashid Khan 

The spinner incurred a high economy rate in Chepauk, but showed more promise as a wicket-taking threat compared to the opening game. He is expected to thrive on the pitch and under the overhead conditions in this match.

Spencer Johnson 

The Australian left-arm pace bowler has delivered a blend of expensive overs and commendable control in the tournament thus far. He secured his third wicket of the tournament in the previous game.

GT Possible Impact Player Substitutes 

Mohit Sharma, Sharath BR, Abhinav Manohar, Noor Ahmad, Manav Suthar 

In the preceding games, we’ve observed Mohit Sharma and Sai Sudharsan alternating positions in the XI based on whether Gujarat Titans are batting or fielding. Both players are key assets, and we anticipate them to once again switch roles in this match.

Sunrisers Hyderabad 

Heinrich Klaasen 

The South African batsman currently holds the title of being the most in-form player in the world in this format. He demonstrated his prowess by scoring an unbeaten 80 runs from 34 balls against Mumbai Indians.

Travis Head 

The Australian left-handed batsman joined the team for the previous game and immediately made a mark by scoring 62 runs from just 24 balls.

Pat Cummins 

The captain faced pressure during the victory against Mumbai Indians but demonstrated his own skills while calmly leading his team to triumph.

Jaydev Unadkat 

The left-arm pacer claimed two significant wickets in the previous game, dismissing the formidable batting duo of Naman Dhir and Hardik Pandya.

SRH Possible Impact Player Substitutes 

Nitish Reddy, Washington Sundar, Umran Malik, Glenn Phillips, Upendra Yadav 

Umran Malik substituted Travis Head in the second innings of the match against Mumbai Indians but conceded 15 runs from his solitary over. Considering the pitch’s inclination towards favoring spinners more, Washington Sundar could be a viable option for this game.

Team Forms: 

GT Team Form: 

Gujarat Titans appear notably different without the presence of Hardik Pandya and Mohammed Shami, and they suffered a comprehensive defeat against CSK in their last IPL 2024 match.

SRH Team Form: 

Sunrisers Hyderabad have demonstrated their exceptional batting lineup in both games, while also exhibiting the presence of astute bowlers in the last match.

SQUAD: 

Gujarat Titans (GT) Squad: 

Wriddhiman Saha(WK), Shubman Gill(C), Sai Sudharsan, Vijay Shankar, David Miller, Azmatullah Omarzai, Rahul Tewatia, Rashid-Khan, Umesh Yadav, Ravisrinivasan Sai Kishore, Spencer Johnson, Noor Ahmad, Joshua Little, Mohit Sharma, Shahrukh Khan, Abhinav Manohar, Kartik Tyagi, Sushant Mishra, Sandeep Warrier, Matthew Wade(WK), Manav Suthar, Kane Williamson, BR Sharath(WK), Jayant Yadav, Darshan Nalkande.

Match:  India vs Pakistan 
Time:   09 June, 08:00 PM (IST) 

Series:: ICC Mens T20 World Cup 19th Match, Group A  
Venue:   Nassau County Int. Stadium – East Meadow, United States 

Info: 

  • Virat Kohli has a great record against Pakistan and he is the team’s best bet to score runs on a tough pitch. Back him as India top batter. Jasprit Bumrah is a world class bowler and is likely to create a lot of problems for the Pakistan batters. Back him as top bowler.
  • Babar Azam needs to stand up for Pakistan in the big challenge against India. He is the team’s captain and best batter and a lot rests on him. Back him as top batter. With the ball, Shaheen Afridi could create a lot of problems for the Indian batters and he is our top choice for the best bowler.
  • The wicket will be helpful for bowlers and we feel that plenty of wickets will fall on the day. Back Pakistan to lose more than 6.5 wickets in their innings

Toss Prediction

Captain winning the toss should bowl first as there will be help on offer for the bowlers and there is a chance of team getting shot down for low score.

Weather & Pitch Report

Weather: 

There is a 50 percent chance of rain on the match day. It will be overcast and the temperature will range around the 20 degree mark.

Pitch Report:

This is not an easy wicket to bat. The conditions are expected to be better than what we have seen in previous games, however, it will still pose a challenge to the batters if the bowlers pitch the ball in right area.

Team NEWS: 

IND Team News: 

Rohit Sharma was retired hurt against Ireland after being hit on the elbow; however, the Indian captain should be available to play the important game against Pakistan. Don’t think India would be making any changes to their combination for the crucial clash. However, if  Rohit Sharma feels that spinners could be more useful on the pitch (if a different strip is used), he may pick Kuldeep Yadav over Mohammed Siraj.

PAK Team News: 

Pakistan are likely to make a few changes to the team after the defeat against USA. Saim Ayub could come in place of Azam Khan. Also, Imad Wasim will return to the team if he has recovered from his side strain. Imad could replace Mohammad Amir is the playing XI.

Predicted Playing11: 

IND 

1 Rohit Sharma (c)

2 Virat Kohli

3 Rishabh Pant (wk)

4 Suryakumar Yadav

5 Shivam Dube

6 Hardik Pandya

7 Ravindra Jadeja

8 Axar Patel

10 Arshdeep Singh

PAK

3 Usman Khan

4 Fakhar Zaman

5 Shadab Khan

6 Azam Khan

7 Iftikhar Ahmed

8 Shaheen Afridi

9 Naseem Shah

10 Mohammad Amir

11 Haris Rauf

Winning Chances: 

India are clear favourites to win. The team is very strong on paper and the players are in decent form as well. India also are a temperamentally better team and perform well under pressure, however, the same cannot be said about Pakistan. Pakistan will have to be at their absolute best to beat India but we feel India have enough resources to hand Pakistan their second defeat of the tournament. Back India to win.

India to beat Pakistan

Team Combo: 

IND Team Info – 

  • Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will probably open the inning.
  • Rishabh Pant will bat at the one-down position. He is the backbone of the batting team.
  • Suryakumar Yadav and Shivam Dube will handle the middle-order batting.
  • Rohit Sharma will lead the India as a Captain. He is also a good Batsman
  • Rishabh Pant will do the Wicket Keeping for India.
  • Axar Patel and Ravindra Jadeja will take care of the spin bowling of his team.
  • Jasprit Bumrah and Arshdeep Singh will lead the pace attack of his team.

PAK Team Info – 

  • Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan will probably open the inning.
  • Babar Azam is having topmost fantasy points in this series.
  • Usman Khan will bat at the one-down position. He is the backbone of the batting team.
  • Fakhar Zaman and Shadab Khan will handle the middle-order batting.
  • Babar Azam will lead the Pakistan as a Captain. He was the highest fantasy points gainer in the previous match.
  • Azam Khan will do the Wicket Keeping for Pakistan.
  • Shadab Khan and Iftikhar-Ahmed will take care of the spin bowling of his team.
  • Haris Rauf and Shaheen Afridi will lead the pace attack of his team

Key Players: 

India 

Virat Kohli 

Virat Kohli was dismissed for 1 run against Ireland but will hold the key against Pakistan. Kohli has been in great form and scored over 700 runs in IPL. Also, he has a great record against Pakistan and most of his best T20 World Cup knocks have come against the Babar Azam-led side.

Rishabh Pant 

Rishabh Pant has shown good consistent form in the T20 World Cup. He has looked solid and scored a fifty in the warm-up game against Bangladesh. Pant also scored a crisp 36 against Ireland as well. It seems that he is enjoying batting at No.3.

Ravindra Jadeja 

Pakistan have a history of struggling against the spinners and Ravindra Jadeja is likely to cause a lot of problems for Men in Green. Jadeja’s four overs will be crucial against Pakistan. Also, if there is a requirement, he can also contribute with the bat.

Jasprit Bumrah 

Bumrah is one of the best bowlers going around in world cricket. No matter what wickets he plays, he always finds a way to pick wickets. Once again, India rest a lot of expectations on the ace pacer.

Pakistan 

Babar Azam 

Babar Azam played a scratchy innings of 44 against USA. However, he would be the most important batter for Pakistan against India. He is well equipped to tackle the likes of Bumrah and needs to play a long innings to help the team post or chase a big score.

Fakhar Zaman 

Fakhar Zaman would also be key if the team has to do well. Zaman has shown decent form in the build-up to the tournament. Also, he has previously played a few match winnings against India as well. If Fakhar has a good day, the chances of Pakistan winning will get a massive boost.

Shaheen Afridi 

Shaheen Afridi did not have a great game against USA and would be eyeing a strong return against India. Shaheen with his left arm swing bowling has created problems for the likes of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma in the past and would be looking to replicate his success against the Indian batters.

Imad Wasim 

Imad Wasim will add a lot of value to the team given his all-round skills. He is a very efficient cricketer who can turn the game on his head both with bat and ball.

Team Forms: 

IND Team Form: 

India picked a clinical win over Ireland in the previous game. A win over Pakistan would almost confirm a berth in Super 8s of T20 World Cup 2024.

PAK Team Form: 

Pakistan have not been in great form and have lost their last three games, including two against England and the last game against USA.

SQUAD: 

India (IND) Squad: 

Rohit Sharma (c), Hardik Pandya, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Rishabh Pant, Sanju Samson, Shivam Dube, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Yuzvendra Chahal, Arshdeep Singh, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohd. Siraj

Pakistan (PAK) Squad: 

Babar Azam (c), Abrar Ahmed, Azam Khan, Fakhar Zaman, Haris Rauf, Iftikhar Ahmed, Imad Wasim, Mohammad Abbas Afridi, Mohammad Amir, Mohammad Rizwan, Naseem Shah, Saim Ayub, Shadab Khan, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Usman Khan

Info: 

  • With 482 runs across the tournament at the top of the order, Sunil Narine has been one of the most exciting players in this edition. The West Indian is our tip for KKR’s highest run scorer in the final. Varun Chakravarthy took 2/26 in the Qualifier 1 and the spinner will enjoy bowling in Chepauk. He is a strong choice for KKR’s top wicket taker on Sunday.
  • Abhishek Sharma has been one of the star batters at the top of the order in this year’s competition. He has hit 482 runs at a strike-rate of 207.75 and he is our pick for Sunrisers Hyderabad’s highest run scorer against KKR. Shahbaz Ahmed took 3/23 on this same pitch as the final on Friday and the spinner is well worth backing as Sunrisers Hyderabad’s top wicket taker in this game.
  • On a pitch which is likely to assist his bowling, we recommend selecting Varun Chakravarthy to take over 1.5 wickets in this match.

Live Streaming

TV channels: In India, KKR vs SRH match will be available on Star Network. The match will also be available on Sky Sports (UK), Fox Sports (Australia), Sky Sport NZ (New Zealand), SuperSport (South Africa) and Willow TV (USA)

Toss Predictions

After we saw Sunrisers Hyderabad successfully defend a total in the Qualifier 2 at this venue on Friday, we expect that both captains will choose to bat first if they win the toss ahead of this final at the MA Chidambaram.

Weather & Pitch Report

Weather: 

It will be a cloudy evening in Chepauk and there is a slight chance of rain according to the forecast. However, it is only a slight chance and we can expect a temperature of 32 degrees throughout with high humidity.

Pitch Report:

The pitch at the MA Chidambaram is never the quickest in the IPL and that has been the case once again this season. As a result, scores of 250+ are unrealistic on a surface which is likely to assist the spinners. Slower balls will grip and batters will need to take advantage of the hard ball and the fielding restrictions during the powerplay.

Team NEWS: 

KKR Team News: 

Although there are no injuries in the KKR squad, we could still see some changes ahead of this final as the conditions in Chepauk are different to those seen in the Qualifier 1 in Ahmedabad. Spinners are likely to come into the conversation for the XI as well as in the impact role.

SRH Team News: 

There were no injury worries for Sunrisers Hyderabad either before or after their Qualifier 2 on Friday and we expect to see the same players used across the match as against Rajasthan Royals. Playing here in Chepauk on Friday could also be an advantage for Pat Cummins’ side.

  • Abhishek Sharma is having topmost fantasy points in this series.
  • Rahul Tripathi will bat at the one-down position. He is batting absolutely well.
  • Aiden Markram and Heinrich Klaasen will handle the middle-order batting.
  • Pat Cummins will lead the Sunrisers Hyderabad as a Captain. He is also a good Bowler
  • Heinrich Klaasen will do the Wicket Keeping for Sunrisers Hyderabad.
  • Shahbaz Ahmed and Aiden Markram will take care of the spin bowling of his team.
  • Pat Cummins and T Natarajan will lead the pace attack of his team.

Winning Chances: 

The 2024 IPL is likely to be remembered for some of the very high-scoring powerplay scores as well as the record breaking totals from Sunrisers Hyderabad earlier in the tournament. However, here in Chennai, it is likely to be a lower-scoring game and it could well be a classic between these two strong sides. Sunrisers have the advantage of playing at this venue and winning on Friday whereas KKR thrashed Sunrisers on Tuesday for their second win over them this season. Our prediction is for a close contest which will go all the way to the end but we are backing KKR to triumph once again.

Kolkata Knight Riders to beat Sunrisers Hyderabad

Kolkata Knight Riders a 88% chance to win this match 

Sunrisers Hyderabad a 13% chance to win this match 

Key Players: 

Kolkata Knight Riders 

Sunil Narine 

the all-rounder looks to be very much in the running for the Player of the Tournament Award. He will play unorthodox shots in the final but will look to attack from the start.

Shreyas Iyer 

the skipper has had an easy job leading some of these players this season and he produced a brilliant innings to win in the Qualifier 1 with 58 not out from 24 balls.

Mitchell Starc 

the experienced left-arm quick comes into the final in fine form after taking the wickets of Travis Head, Nitish Kumar Reddy and Shahbaz Ahmed on Tuesday.

Varun Chakravarhty 

the spinner added another two wickets to his tally for the season in the Qualifier 1 and he’ll be looking forward to bowling at the same players in this game.

KKR Possible Impact Player Substitutes 

Anukul Roy, Manish Pandey, KS Bharat, Sherfane Rutherford, Nitish Rana 

Such was their dominance over Sunrisers Hyderabad in the playoffs that KKR did not use an Impact Player in that game. However, in this final, we expect Anukul Roy’s spin to be used in the fielding innings.

Sunrisers Hyderabad 

Heinrich Klaasen 

without the South African’s runs on Friday, Sunrisers could easily have failed to post a sufficient target. He is averaging 42.09 in this IPL.

Abhishek Sharma 

the all-rounder was dismissed inside the first over in the Qualifier 2 but he had already hit 12 runs! He will also be a threat with the ball as seen on Friday when he took 2/24.

T Natarajan 

the left-arm fast medium bowler is a very experienced and clever campaigner. He has an excellent array of slower balls and conceded just 13 runs from his three overs against Rajasthan Royals.

Shahbaz Ahmed 

the impact player contributed with bat and ball in the win over Rajasthan and his left-arm spin could be match-winning again in the final.

SRH Possible Impact Player Substitutes 

Umran Malik, Sanvir Singh, Jaydev Unadkat, Anmolpreet Singh, Glenn Phillips, Travis Hea 

Australian opener Travis Head has been used mainly as just a batting option in IPL 2024 and we expect him to play the same role in this match with Bhuvneshwar Kumar to drop out after the fielding innings.

Team Forms: 

KKR Team Form: 

KKR finished top of the group stage and had a big win in the play-offs. They were last beaten back in Match 42.

SRH Team Form: 

Surisers Hyderabad produced a strong bowling performance on Friday to qualify for the final and have lost just two of their last eight matches.

SQUAD: 

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) Squad: 

Rahmanullah Gurbaz (wk), Sunil Narine, Venkatesh Iyer, Shreyas Iyer (c), Rinku Singh, Andre Russell, Ramandeep Singh, Mitchell Starc, Vaibhav Arora, Harshit Rana, Varun Chakaravarthy, Anukul Roy, Manish Pandey, Nitish Rana, Srikar Bharat, Sherfane Rutherford, Dushmantha Chameera, Angkrish Raghuvanshi, Sakib Hussain, Suyash Sharma, Allah Ghazanfar, Chetan Sakariya

Info: 

  • Skipper Sanju Samson has scored over 500 runs for Rajasthan Royals in this year’s IPL and the right-hander is our pick for their highest run scorer against RCB. Yuzvendra Chahal has 17 wickets across this campaign and we are backing the spinner to be Rajasthan Royals’ top wicket taker in this Eliminator.
  • Virat Kohli hit an unbeaten century the last time these two sides went head to head and he is our tip for RCB’s highest run scorer against Rajasthan Royals. Yash Dayal is RCB’s leading wicket taker in the tournament and the left-arm pacer is well worth backing as their top wicket taker on Wednesday.
  • After striking another seven boundaries in his last innings, we recommend selecting Virat Kohli to hit the most boundaries in this fixture..

Toss Predictions

Just under 55% of the 33 IPL matches to take place at the Narendra Modi Stadium have been won by the team fielding first so we predict that both sides will approach this game hoping to win the toss and choosing to bowl first.

Weather & Pitch Report

Weather: 

According to the forecast, the temperature could well be over 40 degrees at the start of this game on Wednesday. And it will not cool down all that much across the match with the temperature expected to still be over 37 degrees by midnight.

Pitch Report:

This pitch has helped to produce some big scores across this high-scoring IPL campaign and we could be in for two more high totals in this game. There is usually more assistance for the quick bowlers than for the spinners but overall the pace and bounce are extremely reliable at the Narendra Modi Stadium. Whoever bats first will be looking to pass 210.

Team NEWS: 

RR Team News: 

After their long run of defeats, Rajasthan Royals did not even get onto the pitch against KKR on Sunday with even the shortened seven over aside game rained off after the toss. Player availability is the same as ahead of that match with Jos Buttler the main absentee due to returning home to the UK..

RCB Team News: 

There is no doubt that there is a buzz in the RCB camp after their remarkable run of form and after they knocked out the defending champions in their last game. With no injuries, it is only Will Jacks, who has returned to the UK, who is unavailable for this match.

Team Combo: 

RR Team Info – 

  • Rajasthan Royals must be disappointed with the way things went for them in the last few matches, they could not win any of their last 5 matches and as a result they could not finish at the top 2 stage.
  • Yashasvi Jaiswal and Tom Kohler Cadmore will probably open the inning.
  • Sanju Samson will bat at the one-down position. He is the backbone of the batting team.
  • Riyan Parag and Dhruv Jurel will handle the middle-order batting.
  • Riyan Parag is having topmost fantasy points in this series.
  • Sanju Samson will lead the Rajasthan Royals as a Captain. He is also a good Wicket-Keeper
  • Dhruv Jurel will do the Wicket Keeping for Rajasthan Royals.
  • Riyan Parag and Ravichandran Ashwin will take care of the spin bowling of his team.
  • Riyan Parag is having topmost fantasy points in this series.
  • Trent Boult and Avesh Khan will lead the pace attack of his team.

RCB Team Info – 

  • RCB have done no less than a miracle after securing 6 out of their 6 victories in the last matches.
  • Faf du Plessis and Virat Kohli will probably open the inning.
  • Virat Kohli is having topmost fantasy points in this series.
  • Rajat Patidar will bat at the one-down position. He is the backbone of the batting team.
  • Glenn Maxwell and Cameron Green will handle the middle-order batting.
  • Faf du Plessis will lead the RCB as a Captain. He was the highest fantasy points gainer in the previous match.
  • Dinesh Karthik will do the Wicket Keeping for RCB.
  • Glenn Maxwell and Karn Sharma will take care of the spin bowling of his team.
  • Yash Dayal and Mohammed Siraj will lead the pace attack of his team.

Winning Chances: 

Rajasthan Royals do not look as strong a batting side without Jos Buttler and they will need to produce their best batting effort in this game to give a very confident RCB something to worry about. Three weeks ago this fixture would have been an easy win for Rajasthan Royals but the sides are in completely different frames of mind now. We are backing RCB to record their seventh successive win and to progress to the Qualifier 2.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru to beat Rajasthan Royals

Royal Challengers Bengaluru a 58% chance to win this match 

Rajasthan Royals a 42% chance to win this match 

Key Players: 

Rajasthan Royals 

Sanju Samson 

the 29 year old has a huge amount of experience in the IPL and comes into this Eliminator averaging 56 this season and after hitting 47 fours in total.

Yashasvi Jaiswal 

the left-handed Indian international has made only one score of 50+ from his last five innings but he has the ability to take the game away from RCB if he stays at the crease for long.

Yuzvendra Chahal 

the spinner is the only player in the history of the IPL to have picked up over 200 wickets and he has taken between 12 and 27 wickets each season from 2014 onwards.

Avesh Khan 

the right-arm fast medium bowler took two wickets in three balls in the last game and Rajasthan need a big performance from him if they are to progress in the tournament.

RR Possible Impact Player Substitutes 

Nandre Burger, Tanush Kotian, Keshav Maharaj, Kuldeep Sen, Donovan Ferreira 

In Rajasthan Royals’ last match, it was South African all-rounder Donovan Ferreira who came into the side as the impact player in place of Dhruv Jurel. Nandre Burger will be an option for an additional pace bowler with Keshav Maharaj the probable selection if the pitch is spinning.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru 

Virat Kohli 

the leading run scorer in IPL 2024 made 47 runs from 29 balls in Saturday’s victory and he is averaging 64.36 from 14 innings this season.

Faf du Plessis 

the South African skipper is full of confidence ahead of this Eliminator after scoring 54 runs from 39 balls at the top of the order against CSK.

Glenn Maxwell 

the all-rounder came back into the team on Saturday and took a wicket first ball before returning the most economical figures for his side.

Yash Dayal 

the left-arm pacer got two big wickets in Daryl Mitchell and MS Dhoni against CSK. Although he was expensive, he was once again RCB’s biggest wicket taking threat.

RCB Possible Impact Player Substitutes 

Swapnil Singh, Anuj Rawat, Suyash Prabhudesai, Vijaykumar Vyshak, Himanshu Sharma 

Slow left-arm spinner Swapnil came into the team for the fielding innings in place of Rajat Patidar in the win over CSK and we expect the same substitution for this game.

Team Forms: 

RR Team Form: 

Rajasthan Royals come into this knockout game with four losses and one abandonment from Match 50 onwards.

RCB Team Form: 

After beating CSK by the sufficient number of runs to qualify for the play-offs on Saturday, RCB have now won six matches in a row.

ipl today match pitch dimensions and pitch report:

Ian Bishop and Matthew Hayden:

There’s a nice wind coming across the ground. That has helped me keep a little cool because the humidity is quite severe. We are here on pitch number 7 – we haven’t used it at all for this IPL 2024. 61 metres and 72 metres square boundaries – tactically, where the offspiner bowls and where the legspinner bowls come into play. Down the ground – 77 metres – a lot of muscle needed. It looks dark compared to some of the other pitches on the square. This surface is extremely hard. It’s black clay, that means it’ll hold together really well. Whatever moisture has been put into the surface, it’s really going to mesh it all together. I expect a bit of bounce for the seamers, not a lot of turn for the spinners. The only defence for the spinners will be they’ve got that huge boundary to hit up against. In terms of runs, it’s a 175-180 type wicket. We know what Sunrisers Hyderabad’s blueprint is – it’s to score massive. If you do win the toss, Sunrisers will have a bat, put a big load of pressure on the Royals and let’s see how they go. The groundsman says there won’t be any dew.

Info: 

  • Rahmanullah Gurbaz is yet to bat for KKR this season. He was out of the playing XI as Phil Salt did well, however, he returned to the team after Salt left for UK. Gurbaz also carry match winning skills and we are optimistic about him doing well. Back him as KKR top batter. Varun Chakravarthy has been outstanding, taking 18 wickets this season for KKR. Back him as a top KKR bowler.
  • Travis Head has been in ruthless form this season, scoring over 500 runs at a strike rate of over 200. Back him as SRH top batter. Pat Cummins has been the best SRH bowler, taking 15 crucial wickets. Back him as top bowler.
  • Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma have been outstanding for SRH. If they are together for 3-4 overs, SRH will score a lot of runs in the powerplay. We are backing SRH to have a better opening partnership.

Toss Predictions

Toss will be crucial as chasing teams will have an advantage at the Narendra Modi Stadium. There could be some dew thus a score of 200 should be easily chased.

Weather & Pitch Report

Weather: 

It will be a hot evening and temperature will touch the 40 degree mark. There will be some dew in the evening which will help the chasing team.

Pitch Report:

The surface at the Narendra Modi Stadium will be great for batting; however, spinners could play a big role as there could be some turn on offer for the spinners given the excessive heat the pitch has been under for the last few days.

Team NEWS: 

KKR Team News: 

KKR are unlikely to make any changes to the playing XI they selected against Rajasthan Royals. Even though the match could not start due to rain, it gave us a clear idea about the playing XI the team step on the park in Qualifier 1. Rahmanullah Gurbaz will replace Phil Salt in the team.

SRH Team News: 

SRH have been unstoppable as a team and the combination has yielded outstanding results for the Pat Cummins-led side. SRH are likely to field an unchanged XI in the Qualifier 1.

Team Combo: 

KKR Team Info – 

  • Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Sunil Narine will probably open the inning.
  • Sunil Narine is having topmost fantasy points in this series.
  • Venkatesh Iyer will bat at the one-down position. He is the backbone of the batting team.
  • Shreyas Iyer and Andre Russell will handle the middle-order batting.
  • Shreyas Iyer will lead the KKR as a Captain. He is also a good Batsman
  • Rahmanullah Gurbaz will do the Wicket Keeping for KKR.
  • Sunil Narine and Varun Chakravarthy will take care of the spin bowling of his team.
  • Sunil Narine is having topmost fantasy points in this series.
  • Harshit Rana and Mitchell Starc will lead the pace attack of his team.

SRH Team Info – 

  • Abhishek Sharma and Travis Head will probably open the inning.
  • Abhishek Sharma was the highest fantasy points gainer in the previous match.
  • Travis Head is having topmost fantasy points in this series.
  • Rahul Tripathi will bat at the one-down position. He is the backbone of the batting team.
  • Nitish Kumar Reddy and Heinrich Klaasen will handle the middle-order batting.
  • Pat Cummins will lead the Sunrisers Hyderabad as a Captain. He is also a good Bowler
  • Heinrich Klaasen will do the Wicket Keeping for Sunrisers Hyderabad.
  • Shahbaz Ahmed will take care of the spin bowling of the team.
  • Pat Cummins and T Natarajan will lead the pace attack of his team

Winning Chances: 

KKR are favourites for us. There is very little to choose between teams in terms of quality, however, we feel that KKR have a better bowling attack. The presence of Narine and Chakravarthy might well be the difference between win and loss for KKR. The spinners have been in great form and we doubt if SRH can dictate terms against Narine and Chakravarthy at Narendra Modi Stadium pitch which has become helpful for spinners. We are backing KKR to win.

Kolkata Knight Riders to beat Sunrisers Hyderabad

Kolkata Knight Riders a 71% chance to win this match 

Sunrisers Hyderabad a 29% chance to win this match 

Key Players: 

Kolkata Knight Riders 

Rahmanullah Gurbaz 

Gurbaz hasn’t played a game for KKR this season as Phil Salt performed admirably well. However, Gurbaz himself is a destructive batter and can be a match winner for KKR. We are expecting an impactful innings from Gurbaz straightaway.

Sunil Narine 

Sunil Narine scored 461 runs took 15 wickets at a remarkable economy of less than seven in IPL 2024 so far. Narine has played a significant role in KKR’s juggernaut this year. He has been outstanding and if he can keep form in the Qualifier 1, KKR should book a berth in final without much trouble.

Andre Russell 

Andre Russell has also contributed heavily when given an opportunity, both with the bat and ball. Russell has scored 222 runs and took 15 wickets in IPL 2024. While we all were aware of Russell’s potential with the bat, his bowling has impressed more in this season as he has bowled in tough situations and got crucial wickets.

Varun Chakravarthy 

Varun Chakravarthy is the leading wicket-taker for KKR this season, taking 18 wickets. Chakravarthy can be a big player for KKR in Qualifier 1 as the conditions may favour spinners and SRH batters could get into trouble given their intent to take the attack to the opposition.

KKR Possible Impact Player Substitutes 

Angkrish Raghuwanshi, Suyash Sharma, Manish Pandey, Ankul Roy, Vaibhav Arora 

Angkrish Raghuvanshi is a likely impact player choice if KKR need a batter while Vaibhav Arora will be used as bowling Impact player.

Sunrisers Hyderabad 

Abhishek Sharma 

Abhishek Sharma scored 66 in 28 balls against PBKS to help the team chase 215. This was not a one-off innings as Sharma has played similarly throughout the IPL, scoring 467 runs at a strike rate of over 200.

Travis Head 

Travis Head and his ability to deliver in crunch games is well known. From World Cup final to WTC final, he has proved his nerves in many must win games for Australia and he would like to repeat the feat for SRH in IPL qualifier as well. Head has scored 533 runs in the tournament.

Pat Cummins 

Cummins has been exceptional as a leader in IPL 2024. He has bowled tremendously well, taking 15 wickets in the tournament. He has used himself wisely and picked crucial wickets in the middle overs.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar 

Wickets with the new ball will be key for SRH thus Bhuvneshwar Kumar could be a big impact player for the SRH. If he can remove a couple of early wickets, SRH could be on top.

SRH Possible Impact Player Substitutes 

Travis Head, Umran Malik, Glenn Phillips, Washinton Sundar, T Natarajan 

If SRH are chasing, Head will be the impact player while if they are batting first, T Natarajan will be the impact player.

Team Forms: 

KKR Team Form:

Info: 

  • Sanju Samson has been top notch for RR and scored over 500 runs for the first time in IPL season. He can be backed as top batter. Yuzvendra Chahal has been the biggest match winner for RR this year with the ball, taking 17 wickets. Back him as top bowler.
  • With No Phil Salt, Rahmanullah Gurbaz will play for KKR. He is a destructive batter and will be keen to make an immediate impact. Back him as KKR top batter. Varun Chakravarthy has taken 18 wickets this season for KKR. Back him as a top KKR bowler.
  • KKR have been given the license to go berserk from ball one. They have the best run rate in the powerplay along with SRH. We feel KKR could score over 90 runs in the powerplay if they don’t lose a wicket early.

Live Streaming

TV channels: In India, RR vs KKR match will be available on Star Network. The match will also be available on Sky Sports (UK), Fox Sports (Australia), Sky Sport NZ (New Zealand), SuperSport (South Africa) and Willow TV (USA)

Toss Predictions

Toss will be key as teams chasing have a big advantage due to small grounds and impact player rule. Captain winning the toss should chase again.

Weather & Pitch Report

Weather: 

There is over 50 per cent chance of rain on the match day. The humidity will be 73 per cent while he temperature will be in high 20s.

Pitch Report:

RR could score only 144-9 in their previous game against PBKS at the Barsapara Stadium. There was turn on offer for the spinners. If the wicket plays the same way, it could be hard going for the batters again. A score of 180 should be par.

Team NEWS: 

RR Team News: 

Rajasthan Royals played Tom Kohler-Cadmore in Jos Buttler’s absence but he struggled a lot. RR could get Shimron Hetmyer back in the playing XI, replacing Cadmore. If Hetmyer is not available due to injury, Donovan Ferreria can be used.

KKR Team News: 

KKR will miss the services of Phil Salt who has left for the UK. He should be replaced by Rahmanullah Gurbaz. KKR won’t be keen on making too many changes in the winning combination even though they have secured a top two finish.

Winning Chances: 

Rajasthan Royals have lost the last four games on the trot and it does come as a surprise because they have a very strong team at disposal. The Royals have already played a game in Guwahati and their familiarity with the conditions should be a big boost for RR ahead of the game against KKR. The match is between two equal teams and there is very little to choose in terms of better team on paper. We are backing RR to win the game.

Rajasthan Royals to beat Kolkata Knight Riders

Rajasthan Royals a 36% chance to win this match 

Kolkata Knight Riders a 64% chance to win this match 

Key Players: 

Rajasthan Royals 

Sanju Samson 

Sanju Samson has been outstanding for RR in IPL 2024 season. He has delivered his best performance in IPL in terms of runs this year, with 504 runs in 13 games. Samson would love to make it a special IPL by winning the title and for that he needs to keep form and continue scoring runs for the team.

Riyan Parag 

Parag has been equally outstanding. He is the leading run scorer for Rajasthan Royals this season, with 531 runs to his name. Coming in at tough situations, Parag has scored crucial runs for the team and bailed them out of trouble and put the team on brink of a win.

Trent Boult 

Boult has not taken many wickets this season but his experience and skills will be vital for RR. Also, he has done well with the new ball and if he can knock out a few top order batters for KKR, RR will be on top in the match.

Yuzvendra Chahal 

Yuzvendra Chahal will be vital for RR. He has enjoyed a great run with the ball this year, taking 17 wickets. Every time Samson has needed a wicket, he has turned to Chahal and he has not disappointed.

RR Possible Impact Player Substitutes 

Nandre Burger, Tanush Kotian, Keshav Maharaj, Kuldeep Sen, Tom Kohler-Cadmore 

RR could use Cadmore as an impact player if they want to give him another shot but that is unlikely. They will mostly use a bowler, probably Keshav Maharaj as impact player in next game.

Kolkata Knight Riders 

Rahmanullah Gurbaz 

Gurbaz was kept out of the playing XI as Phil Salt performed well for the side. However, with Salt gone, Gurbaz has a chance to prove his mettle. He is also an equally destructive batter and can decimate a bowling attack.

Sunil Narine 

Sunil Narine has played a massive role in KKR’s juggernaut this season. He has scored 461 runs in the tournament and took 15 wickets at a remarkable economy of less than seven.

Andre Russell 

Andre Russell has also been significant to KKR’s outstanding run this season. Russell has delivered exceptional show with the bat as well as the ball, scoring 222 runs and taking 15 wickets.

Varun Chakravarthy 

Varun Chakravarthy is the highest wicket-taker for KKR this season. He has spun the web around opposition teams and accounted for 18 wickets at an economy of 8.3.

KKR Possible Impact Player Substitutes 

Angkrish Raghuwanshi, Suyash Sharma, Manish Pandey, Ankul Roy, Vaibhav Arora 

Angkrish Raghuvanshi can be used if KKR need a better else Vaibhav Arora should be a good option as bowling Impact player.

Team Forms: 

RR Team Form: 

RR played excellent cricket throughout the season but lost a few close game recently. The team is winless in last four games.

KKR Team Form: 

KKR were outstanding in the league stage and won nine out of the 13 games. They will end the league stage as table toppers for the first time in history.

SQUAD: 

Rajasthan Royals (RR) Squad: 

Yashasvi Jaiswal, Tom Kohler Cadmore, Sanju Samson(WK)(C), Riyan Parag, Dhruv Jurel, Ravichandran Ashwin, Rovman Powell, Trent Boult, Sandeep Sharma, Avesh Khan, Yuzvendra Chahal, Nandre Burger, Tanush Kotian, Keshav Maharaj, Abid Mushtaq, Shubham Dubey, Donavon Ferreira, Kunal Singh Rathore(WK), Navdeep Saini, Kuldeep Sen, Shimron Hetmyer

Info: 

  • Travis Head has been one of the standout batters in this year’s competition and his attacking approach at the top of the order has caught the eye. He is our pick for Sunrisers Hyderabad’s highest run scorer against Punjab Kings. Pat Cummins has impressed with his variations and ability to bowl the right length at the right time. The skipper is a strong choice for Sunrisers’ top wicket taker in this match.
  • Rilee Rossouw looked in good touch in his last innings with 22 runs from 13 balls against Rajasthan Royals and he will be expected to step up with Jonny Bairstow having left for home. Rossouw is our tip for Punjab Kings’ highest run scorer in this game. Harshal Patel currently has the Purple Cap and we are backing the pace bowler to be Punjab Kings’ top wicket taker against Sunrisers.
  • The opening partnership of Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma has been one of Sunrisers’ strengths in this campaign. We recommend backing them to be the highest opening partnership in this match.

Toss Predictions

Both teams have had success when chasing this season although Sunrisers have also won twice when batting first at this venue. We predict that both sides will want to bat first ahead of the toss in this clash.

Weather & Pitch Report

Weather: 

According to the weather forecast, there will be cloud cover throughout Sunday afternoon in Hyderabad. There will be a slight chance of rain but overall there should be enough dry time to get a match completed.

Pitch Report:

Games at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium have been high-scoring this season and we expect nothing different in this match. Whoever bats first will be looking to post a total of 240+ with the ball expected to fly particularly fast to the boundary during the powerplays.

Team NEWS: 

SRH Team News: 

After not facing or delivering one ball across Thursday’s game, it will be 11 days since Sunrisers last played by the time this match begins on Sunday. With play-off qualification confirmed, there will be a temptation to rest players but we expect Sunrisers to select their best XI as they push for a top two finish.

PBKS Team News: 

There will certainly be two changes for Punjab Kings ahead of this match from their win over Rajasthan Royals with Jonny Bairstow and Sam Curran now back in England ahead of the T20 World Cup. And with Shikhar Dhawan and Kagiso both still injured, the captaincy of the Kings is up for grabs!.

  • Harshal Patel and Arshdeep Singh will lead the pace attack of his team.

Winning Chances: 

After seeing their last game abandoned without a ball being bowled, we expect Sunrisers Hyderabad to come out all guns blazing in this match, particularly as there is a top two place potentially up for grabs. Punjab Kings secured a very good win against Rajasthan Royals in their last clash but we do not think their XI will be competitive enough in this match. Our prediction is for Sunrisers Hyderabad to win.

Sunrisers Hyderabad to beat Punjab Kings

Sunrisers Hyderabad a 69% chance to win this match 

Punjab Kings a 31% chance to win this match 

Key Players: 

Sunrisers Hyderabad 

Travis Head 

the 30 year old left-hander was not in the side for Sunrisers Hyderabad’s opening game of the season but he has since become one of the stars of the tournament.

Abhishek Sharma 

the young all-rounder has eclipsed Heinrich Klaasen in the Sunrisers batting line-up in IPL 2024. He will take the attack to Punjab Kings from the opening delivery of his innings.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar 

the 34 year old right arm fast medium opening bowler has added another 11 wickets to his IPL tally this season and he has taken six of them across the last three matches.

Pat Cummins 

the Australian had shows signs of fatigue after conceding 47+ runs in three of his last five matches but he will certainly have benefited from the rest before this game.

SRH Possible Impact Player Substitutes 

Glenn Phillips, Umran Malik, T Natarajan, Mayank Agarwal, Washington Sundar 

Glenn Phillips could be an option to come into the team in either innings as an impact player all-rounder but we expect T Natarajan to be introduced in the fielding innings in place of Abhishek Sharma.

Punjab Kings 

Rilee Rossouw 

the South African has not been at his best throughout this tournament but once he gets going he is capable of winning a match single-handedly.

Jitesh Sharma 

the wicket-keeper batter has not been able to follow-up his impressive season from last year but he could get an opportunity further up the order in this match.

Harshal Patel 

the right-arm fast medium India international has been written off on many occasions but he keeps coming back and comes into this game with 77 wickets across the last four IPLs.

Arshdeep Singh 

the left-arm swing bowler will be off to the T20 World Cup for India later this month and took 4/29 in the last head to head against Sunrisers.

PBKS Possible Impact Player Substitutes 

Atharva Taide, Vidwath Kaverappa, Tanay Thyagarajan, Harpreet Bhatia, Shashank Singh 

We expect to see Arshdeep Singh used only during the fielding innings with all-rounder Atharva Taide likely to be the player to come in during the batting innings.

Team Forms: 

SRH Team Form: 

After Thursday’s abandonment, Sunrisers Hyderabad have now lost just one of their last four games.

PBKS Team Form: 

Punjab Kings had lost two in a row before their win over Rajasthan but have now won three of their last five.

Info: 

  • Virat Kohli has been top notch with over 660 runs for RCB so far in 13 games. Back him as top batter for RCB. Mohammed Siraj has shown great form in last few games and the conditions will be favourable for him. He is a top choice for RCB best bowler.
  • Ruturaj Gaikwad has also scored nearly 600 runs in the tournament and will be CSK’s best bet for leading run scorer. With 16 wickets, Tushar Deshpande has done well for CSK. In overcast conditions, Deshpande can pose serious challenge thus he is our pick for top wicket-taker for CSK.
  • Virat Kohli and Ruturaj Gaikwad have scored hundreds in the tournament while several other players from both teams have got close. There is a good possibility that a century can be scored in the match.

Toss Predictions

Chinnaswamy Stadium is not an easy ground to defend. Also, with rain around, captains will prefer to bowl.

Weather & Pitch Report

Weather: 

The weather is not very promising as there is over 80 per cent chance of rain on the match day. The IMD has issued an Orange Alert for Bengaluru on May 18.

Pitch Report:

The wicket at the Chinnaswamy Stadium will be good for batting, however, there is some rain around and the overcast conditions can help the fast bowlers get some swing and movement, making it a bit more challenging for the batters.

Team NEWS: 

RCB Team News: 

Will Jacks has returned to the UK along with Reece Topley thus RCB will have to make a forced change to the playing XI. Glenn Maxwell is likely to replace Jacks in the playing XI..

CSK Team News: 

There is a massive doubt about Moeen Ali’s availability as he is part of the England squad for Pakistan series and is expected to leave for England this week. If Ali misses out, CSK could bring Mitchell Santner in the playing XI.

Team Combo: 

RCB Team Info –

  • Glenn Maxwell will bat at the one-down position. He is the backbone of the batting team.
  • Rajat Patidar and Cameron Green will handle the middle-order batting.
  • Faf du Plessis will lead the RCB as a Captain. He is also a good Batsman
  • Dinesh Karthik will do the Wicket Keeping for RCB.

  • Ruturaj Gaikwad is having topmost fantasy points in this series.
  • Daryl Mitchell will bat at the one-down position. He is the backbone of the batting team.
  • Shivam Dube and Ravindra Jadeja will handle the middle-order batting.

  • Ravindra Jadeja and Rachin Ravindra will take care of the spin bowling of his team.
  • Tushar Deshpande and Shardul Thakur will lead the pace attack of his team.

Winning Chances: 

RCB are favourites to win. RCB have a big home advantage by their side. Also, the form of Virat Kohli makes a lot of difference to the strength of team. Kohli single handed has kept the team in hunt for playoffs. More so, RCB have hit a purple patch where they have won five games on the trot. CSK have blown hot and cold throughout the season and we feel they could struggle against RCB. We are backing RCB to win.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru to beat Chennai Super Kings

Royal Challengers Bengaluru a 72% chance to win this match 

Chennai Super Kings a 28% chance to win this match 

Key Players: 

Royal Challengers Bengaluru 

Virat Kohli 

Virat Kohli has been in sublime form. He has single handedly kept RCB in hunt for the playoffs. Kohli is the leading run scorer of the tournament, with 661 runs to his name in 13 matches.

Rajat Patidar 

Rajat Patidar had a slow start to the campaign but he picked up great form at the backend of the tournament. Patidar has scored 320 runs in the tournament, including five fifties at a strike rate of 180. Most of Patidar’s blazing knocks have come in the past few matches for the team..

Glenn Maxwell 

Glenn Maxwell was left out of the team due to inconsistent performances but he is a big game player and has a habit of performing well when the chips are down. Maxwell’s ability and experience to deliver in a do or die situation will be a massive plus for RCB.

Mohammed Siraj 

The conditions will be overcast and fast bowlers can get help from the surface. Siraj can be deadly when the ball is moving around. Siraj has also shown good form of late. Overall, he has taken 12 wickets this season.

Cameron Green 

Cameron Green has scored 190 runs and picked 8 wickets in 11 matches and we back him to perform well in this match as he finished with bowling figures of 2/27 in the last match against CSK. He removed Ajinkya Rahane and Daryl Mitchell.

RCB Possible Impact Player Substitutes 

Swapnil Singh, Anuj Rawat, Suyash Prabhudessai, V Vyshak, Himanshu Sharma 

Suyash Prabhudessai or Anuj Rawat could be used as an impact player if RCB require a batter while the team should go with V Vyshak if they need a fast bowler.

Chennai Super Kings 

Ruturaj Gaikwad 

Ruturaj Gaikwad has carried the team’s batting ably this season. The captain has led from the front, scoring 583 runs in 13 games.

Shivam Dube 

Shivam Dube has ran out of gas in the last few games, however, he is a dangerous player and very capable of changing the complexion of the game within a blink of an eye. Dube has scored 389 runs this season.

Ravindra Jadeja 

Ravindra Jadeja adds a lot of value to the side. He is a handy batter down the order and a potent left arm spinner. With 225 runs and eight wickets, Jadeja hasn’t set the stage on fire in IPL 2024, however, there is no doubt about his match winning skills and CSK would hope that he brings out his A game in a must win match.

Tushar Deshpande 

Tushar Deshpande has been impressive for CSK. The conditions should be helpful for pacers and Deshpande could create a lot of problems for the RCB batters. Overall, he has taken 16 wickets in IPL 2024 season.

Simarjeet Singh 

Simarjeet has been impressive with his pace bowling. In 3 matches he has taken 5 wickets at a good strike rate of 13.2. He was not part of the playing 11 in the previous game against RCB but we expect some wickets from him in this match.

CSK Possible Impact Player Substitutes 

Ajinkya Rahane, Sameer Rizvi, Mukesh Chaudhary, Prashant Solanki, Ajay Manda 

CSK are short on batters thus it is very likely that the team will use either Ajinkya Rahane or Sameer Rizvi as impact player. If they need a bowler, Mukesh Chaudhary can be used.

Team Forms: 

RCB Team Form: 

RCB had a poor start to the IPL 2024 and lost seven out of the eight games, however, they bounced back to win the following five games.

CSK Team Form: 

CSK have been inconsistent throughout the season. They have played 13 games, winning seven and losing six matches.

SQUAD: 

Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) Squad: 

Faf du Plessis(C), Virat Kohli, Glenn Maxwell, Rajat Patidar, Cameron Green, Mahipal Lomror, Dinesh Karthik(WK), Swapnil Singh, Yash Dayal, Karn Sharma, Mohammed Siraj, Lockie Ferguson, Akash Deep, Anuj Rawat(WK), Himanshu Sharma, Rajan Kumar, Manoj Bhandage, Tom Curran, Saurav Chauhan, Alzarri Joseph, Vyshak Vijaykumar, Suyash Prabhudessai, Mayank Dagar

Info: 

  • Tilak Varma is the only player for Mumbai Indians this IPL edition to have hit over 400 runs and the left-hander is our pick for their highest run scorer against Lucknow Super Giants. Jasprit Bumrah took another two wickets in the last game and the right-arm pacer is a strong choice for Mumbai Indians’ top wicket taker in this game.
  • Nicholas Pooran is averaging over 60 in this year’s IPL and the West Indian left-hander is well worth backing as Lucknow Super Giants’ highest run scorer in this match. Naveen-ul-Haq is the leading wicket taker for Lucknow in the 2024 IPL and the Afghan pace bowler is our tip for their top wicket taker in this fixture.
  • With 20 wickets across this tournament and still in the hunt for the Purple Cap in spite of missing out on the play-offs, we recommend selecting Jasprit Bumrah to take over 1.5 wickets in this match.

Toss Predictions

The last eight matches in the IPL at the Wankhede Stadium have seen four won by the team fielding first and four won by the team batting first. With humidity increasing across the game, we predict that both skippers will want to field first in this match.

Weather & Pitch Report

Weather: 

It will be another warm evening in Mumbai on Friday evening with the temperature in the low thirties from start to finish. There will be more cloud cover as the game progresses.

Pitch Report:

There have been 31 wickets across the last two IPL matches at this venue with quick and slow bowlers all having joy. Although the ball will be harder and will fly to the boundary quicker during the opening overs, that is also likely to be the time when we will see the most swing.

Team NEWS: 

MI Team News: 

In spite of already being out of the tournament and playing just for pride in their last game, Mumbai Indians still fielded their strongest possible side and we expect more of the same in this match. No new injury worries have been announced in the squad.

LSG Team News: 

In a final attempt to get a result to keep their hopes alive of qualifying for the play-offs, Lucknow Super Giants did make a couple of changes ahead of their loss against Delhi Capitals on Tuesday. There could be further changes ahead of this game with their chance of progression now so unlikely.

Winning Chances: 

With only three more group stage matches to go in the 2024 Indian Premier League after this match and both sides not finishing in the top four, we can expect an entertaining fixture. Particularly with the pitch likely to keep the bowlers interested throughout the game, we are predicting two totals of under 200. Lucknow Super Giants are finishing the tournament in very poor form and we are backing Mumbai Indians to win.

Mumbai Indians to beat Lucknow Super Giants

Mumbai Indians a 33% chance to win this match 

Lucknow Super Giants a 67% chance to win this match 

Key Players: 

Mumbai Indians 

Tilak Varma 

the 21 year old left-hander hit five fours and one six in the last game and he will be keen to contribute after making just seven runs in the last clash with Lucknow Super Giants.

Suryakumar Yadav 

the right-handed big hitter has made one hundred and three half-centuries across IPL 2024 and is always a real danger when he comes to the crease.

Piyush Chawla 

the spinner picked up the wickets of Venkatesh Iyer and Andre Russell against KKR and he will be a danger on this Wankhede pitch.

Jasprit Bumrah 

the Indian international is a wicket taking threat whenever he has the ball in hand and he will be keen to end this tournament with more dismissals.

MI Possible Impact Player Substitutes 

Nuwan Thushara, Shams Mulani, Shivalik Sharma, Mohammad Nabi, Kumar Kartikey 

The recent approach for Mumbai Indians has been Nuwan Thushara coming in for the fielding innings with the experienced Rohit Sharma only taking part in the batting innings and we expect the same in this match.

Lucknow Super Giants 

KL Rahul 

the captain has improved his strike-rate this year and is Lucknow’s leading run scorer once again with a 41 run lead over his nearest challenger.

Nicholas Pooran 

the left-hander produced another excellent innings against Delhi Capitals when he scored 61 runs from 27 balls including hitting ten boundaries.

Naveen-ul-Haq 

the quick bowler has an excellent slower-ball but he will need to not overuse it against some top batters in this match.

Ravi Bishnoi 

the spinner has had an up and down tournament this year but impressed against Delhi Capitals taking 1/26 in the last game.

LSG Possible Impact Player Substitutes 

Mohsin Khan, M Siddharth, Devdutt Padikkal, Prerad Mankad, Krishnappa Gowtham 

We can expect to see Ayush Badoni drop out of the side for the fielding innings of this game with most pundits expecting to see Mohsin Khan coming into the XI.

Team Forms: 

MI Team Form: 

Mumbai Indians have had a very disappointing tournament and have won just two of their last eight.

LSG Team Form: 

Lucknow Super Giants have lost their last three fixtures and four of their last five games across the tournament.

Info: 

  • Travis Head struck 89 not out from just 30 balls in Sunrisers’ big win over Lucknow Super Giants. The Australian left-hander is well worth backing as Sunrisers’ highest run scorer against Gujarat Titans. Bhuvneshwar Kumar took 2/12 in the last match and he is our tip for Sunrisers’ top wicket taker in this clash.
  • After hitting 527 runs across this year’s IPL, we have Sai Sudharsan as a strong choice to be Gujarat Titans’ highest run scorer against Sunrisers Hyderabad. With the ball, the pace off option of Rashid Khan is likely to be key for Gujarat. Playing against his former franchise, the spinner is our pick for Gujarat’s top wicket taker in this game.
  • With 31 sixes across the tournament already, we recommend selecting Travis Head to hit the most sixes in this fixture.

Toss Predictions

With 42 of 76 IPL games in Hyderabad won by the team batting second, we predict that both sides will want to field first ahead of this match.

Weather & Pitch Report

Weather: 

Across Friday and the weekend, wet weather is forecast in Hyderabad but Thursday currently has a clear forecast with the temperature likely to be in the high twenties throughout.

Pitch Report:

Sunrisers Hyderabad showed that this is still a fantastic batting pitch by hitting 167 from only 9.4 overs to beat Lucknow Super Giants last week. The ball will come onto the bat nicely throughout this game and this will be particularly the case when the ball is hard at the start of the innings. A par total will be around 250.

Team NEWS: 

SRH Team News: 

With only skipper Pat Cummins not at the top of his game during the last match, we are not expecting to see any changes for Sunrisers Hyderabad in this game. Furthermore, the players have had a whole week to recover from any knocks or niggles.

GT Team News: 

Although it has been a disappointing campaign for Gujarat Titans, particularly after their successful showings in 2022 and 2023, they will still be keen to end the season with positive results. There are no new injuries in the Gujarat squad ahead of this clash.

Winning Chances: 

Sunrisers Hyderabad swept Lucknow Super Giants away in their last game at this venue and they will turn up at the ground with a huge amount of confidence on Thursday. So will Gujarat Titans, who although they will be disappointed to be out of the competition, had a big win themselves in their last fixture. However, our prediction is for Sunrisers Hyderabad to play with their usual self-belief and for their batting line-up to be too strong. We are backing Sunrisers Hyderabad to win.

Sunrisers Hyderabad to beat Gujarat Titans

Sunrisers Hyderabad a 83% chance to win this match 

Gujarat Titans a 17% chance to win this match 

Key Players: 

Sunrisers Hyderabad 

Abhishek Sharma 

The 23 year old left-handed all-rounder was on top form once again in his last innings when he finished 75 not out from 28 balls.

Travis Head 

The Australian has been a very consistent presence at the top of the order for Sunrisers and he comes into this game after hitting eight fours and eight sixes in his last innings at this venue.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar 

The right-arm fast medium bowler has swung the ball early in each game so far and he dismissed Quinton de Kock and Marcus Stoinis against Lucknow Super Giants.

Pat Cummins 

The skipper conceded 47 runs from his four overs in Match 57 but he still showed his class by picking up the wicket of KL Rahul.

SRH Possible Impact Player Substitutes 

Glenn Phillips, Umran Malik, T Natarajan, Mayank Agarwal, Washington Sundar 

We saw Abhishek Sharma come into the XI for the batting innings and dominate once again in the last match so it would be a big surprise if he were not to be replaced by T Natarajan again for the fielding innings.

Gujarat Titans 

Shubman Gill 

The skipper was at his best in the win over Chennai Super Kings and we can expect him to lead from the front once again in this match.

Sai Sudharsan 

The left-hander not only made a century against CSK but also did it with a strike-rate of 200+. He will be looking to produce the same on this strong batting pitch.

Rashid Khan 

The Afghan bowling all-rounder has not been at his best across the 2024 IPL but comes into this match after taking 10 wickets in the campaign.

Mohit Sharma 

the right-arm pace bowler had plenty of joy earlier in the tournament with his slower balls but he could find them flying to the fence against this Sunrisers batting line-up.

GT Possible Impact Player Substitutes 

Abhinav Manohar, Sandeep Warrier, BR Sharath, Darshan Nalkande, Jayant Yadav 

Sandeep Warrier was the bowling impact player in Gujarat Titans’ last completed game and we expect him to do the same in this match with Sai Sudharsan coming out of the side.

Team Forms: 

SRH Team Form: 

Sunrisers Hyderabad have found form again recently with two victories from their last three matches of IPL 2024.

Info: 

  • Riyan Parag has set the stage on fire this IPL, with over 380 runs. Back him as RR top batter. Yuzvendra Chahal has taken 15 wickets and is a great pick for RR top bowler.
  • Shikhar Dhawan will be back for PBKS and there is no better player than the captain to be backed as top batter. Dhawan has been one of the most consistent performers in IPL and would eye a strong return. Back him as PBKS top batter. Harshal Patel has taken 20 wickets this season and can be backed as top bowler.
  • Rajasthan Royals are favourites to win while they are also likely to hit more sixes. You can get good odds by backing Royals as winners and the team with most sixes..

Rajasthan Royals to beat Punjab Kings

Rajasthan Royals a 67% chance to win this match 

Punjab Kings a 33% chance to win this match 

Key Players: 

Rajasthan Royals 

Riyan Parag 

Riyan Parag scored 47 on a tough Chepauk surface against CSK. Parag has been on fire in IPL and played a massive role in Royals juggernaut this season, scoring 483 runs.

Sanju Samson 

Sanju Samson has been mighty consistent. He has broken the record of most runs by him in an IPL season, with 486 runs at a strike rate of 158. Every time Royals have found themselves in trouble, Samson has put his hand up and took the team to the position of strength.

Yuzvendra Chahal 

Yuzvendra Chahal lost some form in the previous few games but he still is one of the key members of the bowling unit. Chahal has taken 15 wickets so far in IPL 2024.

Sandeep Sharma 

Sandeep Sharma has got the ball to swing both ways and picked clutch wickets with the new ball, something he would be expected to do against PBKS. Overall, he has taken 10 wickets in seven games so far.

RR Possible Impact Player Substitutes 

Tanush Kotian,  Rovman Powell, Tom Kohler Cadmore, Nandre Burger, Keshav Maharaj 

Rovman Powell could be used as an impact player while Shimron Hetmyer can be picked in playing XI in place of Shubham Dubey. In case RR need a bowler, Nandre Burger can be used.

Punjab Kings 

Shikhar Dhawan 

Shikhar Dhawan would be raring to make an impact after missing most of PBKS’ matches this season due to injury. With PBKS already out of the playoff race, Dhawan could play without any pressure which could get the best out of him.

Jonny Bairstow 

Jonny Bairstow started slow but found form in the latter end of the tournament that also saw him score a match winning hundred against KKR. Overall, he has scored 284 runs in 10 games this season.

Shashank Singh 

Shashank Singh has been a great find for PBKS. Coming at tough situations, Singh did well to bail out PBKS from trouble and put them on the brink of a win. He has scored 352 runs in 12 games in IPL 2024.

Harshal Patel 

Harshal Patel might leak a few runs but almost always gets important wickets for the team. With 20 wickets in 12 games, he is the joint highest wicket-taker in the tournament along with Jasprit Bumrah.

PBKS Possible Impact Player Substitutes 

Harpreet Brar, Rishi Dhawan, Nathan Ellis, T Thyagarajan, Shubham Dubey 

Jitesh Sharma can be used if PBKS need a batter while Harpreet Brar can be a good bowling impact player.

Team Forms: 

RR Team Form: 

RR have been outstanding throughout the season, winning 10 games, however, the team suffered defeats in the last three matches of the IPL 2024.

PBKS Team Form: 

PBKS have been ordinary in IPL 2024, winning just four games. They have been knocked out of the tournament.
