The eight match of IPL season 9 will be played between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Kolkata Knight Riders at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad.

Sunrisers Hyderabad are coming into this match with a bashing by Royal Challengers Bangalore’s Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers in their last match. They suffered a humiliating defeat against RCB and would be all set to give a tough fight today.

On the other hand, The Kolkata Knight Riders started their IPL 2016 campaign with a victory against the Delhi Daredevils but lost to Mumbai Indians in the second match. Though the batsmen posted a decent total of 187, they failed to defend it. Bowling department is the one Gautam Gambhir needs to take care of.
