Topmost Picks for KKR vs SRH Dream11 Prediction:

Top Picks – Sunrisers Hyderabad

• Abhishek Sharma- Abhishek Sharma scored 66 in 28 balls against PBKS to help the team chase 215. This was not a one-off innings as Sharma has played similarly throughout the IPL.
• Pat Cummins- Cummins has been exceptional as a leader in IPL 2024. He has bowled tremendously well, taking 15 wickets in the tournament.

Top Picks – Kolkata Knight Riders

• Rahmanullah Gurbaz – Gurbaz hasn’t played a game for KKR this season as Phil Salt performed admirably well. However, Gurbaz himself is a destructive batter and can be a match winner for KKR.
• Varun Chakravarthy – Varun Chakravarthy is the leading wicket-taker for KKR this season, taking 18 wickets. Chakravarthy can be a big player for KKR in Qualifier 1.

KKR vs SRH Probable Winners:

KKR are our favourites. There is little to choose between teams in terms of quality, but we believe that KKR has a better bowling attack. The presence of Narine and Chakravarthy could mean the difference between KKR winning and losing. The spinners have been in excellent form, and we doubt that SRH will be able to dictate terms against Narine and Chakravarthy on the Narendra Modi Stadium pitch, which has proven to be beneficial to spinners. We predict KKR to win. Considering the team combination, Kolkata Knight Riders are expected to win this match.
