The franchise will be looking to make amends for their mistakes in the previous game played against Chennai Super Kings.

In the batting department, the home side will be depending on in-form opener Lokesh Rahul to score runs at the top of the innings. He played a splendid innings of 55 runs off 47 balls with the help of three fours and one six in the game played against Chennai Super Kings. He put on a 110-run partnership with Sarfaraz Ahmed in the previous game played against Chennai.

Apart from him, middle-order batsman Sarfaraz Khan has shown excellent form for the side so far this season. He is the leading run-scorer for the franchise with 165 runs in 5 matches at an average of 55.00. Sarfaraz was the standout performer for Kings XI in their previous game. He produced a valiant innings of 67 runs off 59 balls to take the game down to the wire. Kings XI will be hoping that he can continue his good form with the bat in the next couple of matches.

Sunrisers Hyderabad Preview

Despite losing their previous game against Mumbai, Sunrisers are still at second place with six points to their name. 2016 IPL Champions will be looking to put in a better performance in the next game.

In the batting department, the team will be banking on the form of pugnacious opener David Warner, who has managed to score 279 runs in five matches at an average of 69.75. His opening partner Jonny Bairstow has been equally good with the bat and scored 262 runs at an average of 52.40. With Warner and Bairstow perishing early in the innings, the middle-order crumbled under pressure against Mumbai Indians.

Deepak Hooda was the only looked comfortable at the crease. He scored 20 off 24 balls with help of one four. Apart him, no one managed to produce a decent score as Sunrisers were bundled out for just 96 runs in 17.4 overs in their previous game. Yusuf Pathan has looked out of sorts with the bat in the games played so far for Sunrisers Hyderabad. Vijay Shankar will need to produce consistent scores for the side in the next couple of matches.

In the bowling department, the team is heavily dependent on the likes of Mohammad Nabi, Rashid Khan and Bhuvneshwar Kumar to produce breakthroughs with ball in hand. Siddharth Kaul was the pick of the bowlers in the previous game played against Mumbai Indians.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar (captain), Manish Pandey, Mohammad Nabi, Yusuf Pathan , Jonny Bairstow (wk), David Warner, Vijay Shankar, Deepak Hooda, Rashid Khan, Sandeep Sharma, Siddarth Kaul
