Kolkata Knight Riders have been peaking at the right time; the converse might be true for Sunrisers Hyderabad. There are some murmurs that David Warner’s side peaked a little too early in the tournament. Make no mistake, SRH have been the best team of the tournament so far. They have been getting to victories with some style but the latter stages of the tournament needs X-Factor, patience, and the know-how, which Gautam Gambhir’s side have in oodles. The entire setup is full of experience and there are quite a few names who have stuck around with the team since 2012, where they triumphed for the first time. Also Catch- KKR vs SRH, IPL 2016  Eliminator, Live Score

SRH’s Achilles Heel going into this game is the lack of big game experience. What they have is a strong pace attack. There are question marks overh how much Ashish Nehra’s absence and how much it would affect the side in the overall scheme of things. KKR’s batting depth is better than their opponents. One shudders to think what would happen if Warner is out for a cheap score. Spin is another key weapon of the two-time champions. It is SRH who have their task cut out going in this game. However, this is a knockout fixture and it is a case of turning up for the duration of the game. Also Read: Catch the Live Streaming of the KKR vs SRH match here
