Kolkata Knight Riders will be squaring up against Sunrisers Hyderabad in match 49 of IPL 2021 at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium in Dubai. The match will commence on Sunday, October 03 at 07:30 PM IST. Here are our KKR vs SRH Dream11 predictions, preview, squad, and predicted XI.
KKR vs SRH Dream11 Predictions: Form Preview
Will KKR be able to maintain the fire?
Kolkata Knight Riders started their UAE campaign with a bang winning back-to-back games against RCB and MI. They lost a close game against CSK but went on to defeat DC in the next outing. Their campaign suffered a major bump with their loss to Punjab. The maximum they can contest for now is 14 points. KKR need to win both their games to stay alive in the competition. They will be up against Hyderabad, a side that is already out of the contention for the playoffs.
What do SRH stand to gain?
SRH have just won 2 games this season up until now. They have drafted in new players to change their fortunes but nothing has gone their way. Their bowling has held fort up until now. It will be interesting to see if they can hold that front up despite results not going their way. The majority of the SRH players might already have one eye on the mega auctions scheduled next year. They need something special to stay motivated for the rest of this season.
