IPL 2023 Match 19 KKR vs SRH Match Prediction Who will win today

Nitish Rana’s Kolkata Knight Riders will face Aiden Markram’s Sunrisers Hyderabad in Match 19 of Indian Premier League 2023 at Eden Gardens, Kolkata on Friday, 14 April 2023. Keep reading to find out IPL 2023 Match 19 KKR vs SRH Match Prediction Who will win today.

Initially, Kolkata Knight Riders appeared to be one of the weakest teams because of the unavailability of the top players. After their defeat in the first game against Punjab Kings, they roared back to beat Royal Challengers Bangalore by 81 runs. Then, they earned a miraculous victory against Gujarat Titans courtesy of Rinku Singh. All of a sudden, the franchise finds itself in the top half.

On the flip side, Sunrisers Hyderabad were deemed to have one of the strongest squads in the competition. But they lost their first two games without much fight. However, their first victory of the season did come in the last game against Punjab Kings. The Men in Orange would look to build onto this momentum.

Kolkata Knight Riders vs Sunrisers Hyderabad Probable Playing XIs:

Lockie Ferguson finally played his first game of the season as he replaced Tim Southee in the line-up against GT. N Jagadeesan also came in for Mandeep Singh. KKR might not want to change anything in the XI for this game though.

SRH made three changes to their XI against PBKS. Heinrich Klaassen, Marco Jansen and Mayank Markande had come in. But considering the spin-friendly conditions in Kolkata, Adil Rashid could be slotted back.

Here are the predicted playing XI’s of Kolkata Knight Riders vs Sunrisers Hyderabad for the IPL 2023 Match 19

Kolkata Knight Riders Playing XI:

Rahmanullah Gurbaz (wk), N Jagadeesan, Nitish Rana (c), Rinku Singh, Andre Russell, Sunil Narine, Shardul Thakur, Venkatesh Iyer <> Suyash Sharma, Lockie Ferguson, Umesh Yadav, Varun Chakaravarthy

Sunrisers Hyderabad Predicted Playing XI:

Mayank Agarwal, Harry Brook, Rahul Tripathi, Aiden Markram (c), Heinrich Klaasen (wk), Washington Sundar, Marco Jansen/Adil Rashid <> Glenn Phillips, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mayank Markande, Umran Malik, T Natarajan

Toss Prediction

If the surface is similar to what it was in the previous match at this venue, chasing would be difficult as the pitch slows down. So, batting first after winning the toss could be the preferred choice.

Probable Best Batter

Indian batters would be crucial to tackle the spin threat at the Eden Gardens. So, someone like Rahul Tripathi could have a good game. He is coming into this encounter on the back of a match-winning half-century against PBKS.

Probable Best Bowler

Varun Chakravarthy wreaked havoc in the RCB batting line-up in the last match in Kolkata. The ball turned sharply and if that happens again, the mystery spinner would be a major threat.
