Nitish Rana, Rinku Singh Help KKR Recover
After early blows, KKR skipper Nitish Rana and star Rinku Singh helped the team recover. The pair has added 55 runs in 31 balls, taking KKR to 90/3 in 10 overs at the time of writing. KKR don’t bat deep as the likes of Andre Russell and Sunil Narine can be inconsistent so this pair will be key for KKR.
Earlier, KKR won the toss and opted to bat. KKR made two changes in their playing XI as Jason Roy came in for David Wiese and Vaibhav Arora replaced N Jagadeeshan.
“We’ll bat first. Looks like a good wicket, hopefully, we’ll post a good score and then restrict them. We’re not thinking too much ahead, we just have to take it game-by-game. We have had injuries in many games, but they’re back now. We’re playing an extra batter due to the impact rule, and need to get those 10-15 extra runs. Two changes – Jason Roy is back in place of David Wiese, Vaibhav Arora replaces Jagadeeshan,” KKR skipper Nitish Rana said at the toss.
On the other hand, SRH captain Aiden Markram said that pacer Kartik Tyagi is fit and back.
“We would have batted first as well, we have tended to do well with a score on the board. We need to start playing good consistent cricket and tonight’s an opportunity, looking forward to a positive outcome. Batting needs to improve, bowling has been outstanding, but we’ve underperformed with the bat. A couple of changes in our 16 with Kartik Tyagi back in the group. He was injured for a while and is raring to have a go,” Markram said.
