Sixth-placed Sunrisers Hyderabad will lock horns with Kings XI Punjab – who are languishing at the bottom – on Thursday in Dubai. While SRH has won two in five matches, KXIP has won merely one match in five attempts. Despite good performances – both sides have failed to go over the line and would look to get back to winning ways when they face each other.
Temperatures would be high in the range of 35-40. It would be uncomfortable for the players as has been the case thus far.

Sunrisers Hyderabad David Warner(c), Jonny Bairstow(w), Manish Pandey, Kane Williamson, Priyam Garg, Abhishek Sharma, Abdul Samad, Rashid Khan, Sandeep Sharma, Siddarth Kaul, T Natarajan
Kings XI Punjab – KL Rahul(w/c), Mayank Agarwal, Mandeep Singh, Nicholas Pooran, Glenn Maxwell, Sarfaraz Khan, Chris Jordan/Chris Gayle, Murugan Ashwin/Jagadeesha Suchith, Ravi Bishnoi, Mohammed Shami, Sheldon Cottrell
It is a tricky toss – both captains would not mind losing it. Yet, one feels both teams will look to chase in all probability. The pitch would favour batsmen as it has been thus far. Pacers are bound to struggle under the immense heat and humidity in Dubai.
