Indian Premier League: Game 25
Stadium: Brabourne Stadium
15th April 2022.
Two teams who have had contrasting runs in the IPL so far go head to head in the 25th game of the tournament. It will be a good contest as KKR will be looking to forget their current loss against DC and SRH will be looking to extend their winning run.

Sunrisers have been able to get back to form at just the right time. Having lost their opening two games, they have bounced back to win two games on the trot. They have even defeated unbeaten Gujarat in their last game which will be a huge confidence boost for the boys in orange. SRH have the second-worst net run rate in the tournament only next to CSK, so they need to fix that as it can come and haunt them in the later stages of the competition. Washington Sunder will be out for this game due to injury.
Sunrisers Hyderabad Predicted Lineup:
Abhishek Sharma, Kane Williamson (c), Rahul Tripathi, Aiden Markram, Nicholas Pooran (wk), Shashank Singh, Shreyas Gopal, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Marco Jansen, Umran Malik, T Natarajan
Kolkata Knight Riders
Kolkata had given some great fightbacks in this IPL. Having only two defeats in their five games, they are sitting in the second spot behind Rajasthan. They are coming on the back of a defeat in their recent game against the Delhi Capitals. They looked vulnerable against quality spin attacks. KKR will be hoping to get back on track against SRH who are having their main spinner out due to injury. Another good news for the KKR fans is that Aaron Finch is now available for selection, so it will be interesting to see how they incorporate him into this star-studded lineup.
Kolkata Knight Riders Predicted Lineup
Venkatesh Iyer, Ajinkya Rahane, Shreyas Iyer (C), Sam Billings (Wk), Nitish Rana, Andre Russell, Pat Cummins, Sunil Narine, Rasikh Salam, Umesh Yadav, Varun Chakravarthy.
