KKR vs SRH, IPL 2024 Prediction: Odds tipped in favour of Pat Cummins and co

Kolkata Knight Riders have won six out of nine games played against SRH at Eden Gardens

Kolkata Knight Riders are set to kick off their IPL 2024 campaign against Sunrisers Hyderabad this Saturday. The much anticipated KKR vs SRH clash will be played at the Eden Gardens Stadium at 7.30 PM IST

After a lacklustre performance in the previous year, where they finished seventh in the standings, KKR is looking for a turnaround. With the addition of Australian pacer Mitchell Starc to their squad and the appointment of former captain Gautam Gambhir as their mentor, the team aims for a fresh start in the upcoming season.

On the other hand, Sunrisers Hyderabad, led by Australia skipper Pat Cummins, are eager to bounce back from a disappointing 2023 season, where they finished last with just four wins. Cummins’ return to the Eden Gardens, where he previously played a pivotal role in KKR’s success, adds spice to the tournament opener.

KKR vs SRH Prediction:

According to Parimatch, this game is expected to be a nail-biter, with Sunrisers Hyderabad slight favourites at 1.85 and Kolkata Knight Riders close behind at 2.00.

During the auction, SRH focused on bolstering their overseas players, including Cummins, Head, and Hasaranga, to enhance their squad’s depth. However, they rely on their Indian bowling core and top-order stability for consistency.

If the Eden Gardens pitch favours spin, KKR will have an advantage with their strong spin attack comprising Sunil Narine, CV Varun, and Suyash Sharma. Alongside the power-hitting prowess of Andre Russell and the batting solidity of Nitish Rana and Shreyas Iyer, KKR presents a formidable lineup. Anticipate an intense and closely contested match.
