Sunrisers Hyderabad and Punjab Kings will take on each other at the Rajiv Gandhi Cricket Stadium on Saturday. The Sunrisers have already qualified for the playoffs, but in order to clinch one of the first two spots and get two chances to make it to the playoffs, they will have to win this game. Punjab Kings, on the other hand, have already been eliminated from the race to the playoffs and this is their last league match.
With 533 runs in 11 matches at a strike rate of 201.89, Travis Head has been the standout performer for SRH this season. Young opener Abhishek Sharma and Heinrich Klaasen have also been among runs. Abhishek has scored 401 runs in 12 matches at a huge strike rate of 205.64, while Klaasen has scored 339 runs from 12 matches at a strike rate of 186.26. SRH boast of the best batting line-up of IPL 2024 and will be looking to post yet another total in excess of 200 against Punjab.
For Punjab, not much went right this season. Some of their big names disappointed, while they faced a big setback when Shikhar Dhawan got injured mid-season. They will, however, be happy with how Shashank Singh performed for them throughout the season.
Shashank has so far scored 352 runs in 13 matches at a strike rate of 166.82, including two fifties. Sam Curran, who has been leading in absence of Dhawan, and Jonny Bairstow, have both left for England and are likely to be replaced by Atharva Taide and Rishi Dhawan.
In the history of the IPL, Sunrisers Hyderabad and Punjab Kings have played a total of 22 matches. Hyderabad have won 15 of those, while seven were won by Punjab. Ahead of the next match of IPL 2024, here is all you need to know.Â
