KKR vs SRH Head-To-Head: The past record in numbers
Kolkata Knight Riders and Sunrisers Hyderabad have played 23 matches in the Indian Premier League. With 15 wins, Kolkata has won the majority of the games. Hyderabad, on the other hand, has won only eight of its 23 matches.
The first match between the two teams was played during IPL 2013 in Kolkata in which Hyderabad got defeated by 48 runs featuring a knock of 53 runs off 45 balls from Gautam Gambhir. Since then, Kolkata has been very dominant over Hyderabad.
IPL 2022 saw the last match between KKR and SRH in which KKR defeated SRH by 54 runs. Andre Russell was awarded the man of the match for his all-round performance. He scored 49* runs off 28 balls from bat and picked three wickets for 22 runs with the ball. It will be interesting to see which among these two teams gets off the mark in the season with a win.
Kolkata will be boosted with England opener Jason Roy joining the KKR camp. On the other hand, Sunrisers Hyderabad looks a different unit under Aiden Markram’s captaincy. History favours Kolkata Knight Riders, but Sunrisers Hyderabad too has a point to prove. It surely promises to be a Fantastic Friday for cricket fans in the City of Joy.
