David Warner's Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) has won the toss and opted to field first against KL Rahul led Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) in the 43rd match of the ongoing edition of Indian Premier League at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Saturday, October 24. The Sunrisers are in excellent form as they are coming off an eight-wicket victory over Steve Smith’s Rajasthan Royals (RR) on Thursday with Vijay Shankar’s half-century and Jason Holder’s solid show with the ball. Team Punjab on the other hand will take on Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) with full confidence after their three successive wins against Delhi Capitals (DC), Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Mumbai Indians (MI). Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) hold the edge against Kings Eleven Punjab (KXIP) in their previous fourteen IPL meeting with a 10-4 win record. SRH and KXIP shared honours in the last edition of the IPL with one win each to their name. KXIP won the lone encounter against SRH in the 2014 edition of the IPL in the UAE as Australian all-rounder Glen Maxwell scored a whirlwind 95 off 43 balls to help the Punjab franchise clinch a massive 72-run win. In their previous match (Game 22) of the ongoing IPL edition, Warner, Bairstow whirlwind half tons along with Rashid's Stellar Spell powered Hyderabad to a 69-run win against the Punjab Unit, making it succumbed to their fourth straight loss in the season. After winning the toss, SHR's Jonny Bairstow (97) and David Warner (52) put up an opening stand of 160 runs leading to a total score of 201/6 wickets in 20 overs against Kings XI Punjab at the Dubai International Stadium. But since then, Punjab had bucked up their game. As of now, Team Hyderabad is at the same position as Kings XI Punjab. It is yet to be seen who will register another victory in their kitty in today's sensational contest that may go right down to the wire.
