Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH)
If Kagiso Rabada does feature, Mayank Agarwal can back himself to make his first impactful contribution to his new franchise. Not many batters have a great record against the South African pacer in the IPL but Agarwal has a strike rate of 150 against Rabada having faced 38 balls.
Probable XI: Abhishek Sharma, Mayank Agarwal, Rahul Tripathi, Aiden Markram (C), Harry Brook, Heinrich Klaasen (WK), Washington Sundar, Adil Rashid/Marco Jansen, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, T Natarajan, Umran Malik

A lot has been made of SRH’s batting lineup being dominated by right-handers and that could haunt them in this game as well given Rahul Chahar’s record. In 53 innings, he has picked 40 wickets at an economy rate of 7.34. Apart from that, one of SRH’s left-handers Abhishek Sharma has already been dismissed by Chahar twice in just 11 deliveries.
Probable XI: Shikhar Dhawan (C), Prabhsimran Singh, Bhanuka Rajapaksa, Jitesh Sharma (WK), Sikandar Raza, Shahrukh Khan, Sam Curran, Harpreet Brar, Rahul Chahar, Nathan Ellis, Arshdeep Singh
Impact Players – Rishi Dhawan, Atharva Taide, Mohit Rathee, Vidhwath Kaverappa, Harpreet Singh
