Punjab Kings have won one of their three games, and they need to adapt to Chennai’s condition. KL Rahul and Mayank Agarwal have been scoring runs, whereas the middle-order has also played well. The bowling unit is the problem for this side.

IPL Prediction

PBKS vs SRH Team Wicket-Keepers

KL Rahul (Price 10.5) and Jonny Bairstow (Price 9.5) will be the wicket-keepers of our squad. Bairstow scored 345 runs at an average of 31.36 last season, whereas he has scored 110 runs at an average of 36.66 in IPL 2021. KL Rahul has scored 157 runs at an average of 52.33 this season, whereas he won the orange cap of IPL 2020.

David Warner (Price 10.5) and Manish Pandey (Price 9) will be our batsmen from the Sunrisers Hyderabad. Warner scored 548 runs last season at an average of 39.14, whereas Manish scored 425 runs at an average of 32.69. Manish has scored 101 runs in IPL 2021 so far, whereas Warner has scored 93 runs.

Mayank Agarwal (Price 9) will be our batsman from the Punjab Kings. Agarwal scored 424 runs in IPL 2020 at an average of 38.54, whereas he scored a brilliant half-century against Delhi in the last game. He is a technically solid player.

PBKS vs SRH Team All-Rounders

Deepak Hooda (Price 8.5) will be our all-rounder from the Punjab Kings. Hooda scored 101 runs in IPL 2020, whereas he has scored 96 runs at a strike rate of 171.42 this season. He will bat at the number four slot and is looking in decent form.

PBKS vs SRH Team Bowlers

Rashid Khan (Price 9.5) and Mujeeb ur Rahman (Price 8.5) will be our bowlers from the Sunrisers Hyderabad. Khan scalped 20 wickets last season at an economy of 5.37, whereas he has scalped four wickets in IPL 2021. Mujeeb scalped 14 wickets in BBL10, whereas he scalped a couple of wickets in the last game. Both of them are wicket-takers, and this track will support them.

Jhye Richardson (Price 8.5) and Arshdeep Singh (Price 8.5) will be our bowlers from the Punjab Kings. Arshdeep scalped nine wickets in the last IPL, whereas he has scalped five wickets this season. Richardson was the highest wicket-taker of BBL10, whereas he has scalped three wickets in IPL 2021.

Due to Credit Issues, if Punjab bats first, pick Shahrukh Khan as your last player, or else, pick Abdul Samad.

Alternative Changes: Richardson and Samad/Shahrukh Out; Meredith and Shankar In.

Match Prediction: Punjab Kings will be the favourites to win this game.
