Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) are set to go head-to-head in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 on Friday, April 14. The KKR vs SRH match will take place at Eden Gardens in Kolkata.
The Knights, led by Nitish Rana, currently sit fourth in the table with four points and a net run rate of +1.375. They will come into the game after beating Rashid Khan’s Gujarat Titans by three wickets.
The Sunrisers, on the other hand, started their campaign with two consecutive losses against Rajasthan Royals and Lucknow Super Giants. But a win over Shikhar Dhawan’s Punjab Kings gave them some momentum.
Along those lines, here are three players you can choose to captain or vice-captain for your Dream XI team for KKR vs SRH. Choose your players wisely.
#3 Sunil Narine (KKR) – 9 credits
Sunil Narine has been exceptional for the Knight Riders and should be a must in your squad for the KKR vs SRH match. The secondary spinner is currently the leading wicket-taker for the Men of Gold and Purple, having taken six wickets at a stupendous economic rate of 7.41. Narine can also score useful runs further down the order.
#2 Aiden Markram (SRH) – 8.5 credits
Aiden Markram was unable to play in his first game, but he made amends in a big way against the Kings. He remained unbeaten at 37 and played with a strike rate in excess of 160. Markram has also turned arms which means he too can pick up wickets.
#1 Varun Chakravarthy (GT) – 9 credits
Varun Chakravarthy was exceptional the last time he played at Eden Gardens. The spinner picked up a four-wicket haul and made inroads into the RCB batting line-up. If the pitch continues to be slow, SRH hitters will have their challenges as they face it. You should pick him in your team for the KKR vs SRH match.
