David Warner-led Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) will be locking horns with KL Rahul hemmed Kings Eleven Punjab (SRH) in Game 22 of the thirteenth edition of Indian Premier League (IPL 2020) at the Dubai International Stadium in Dubai (UAE) in a short while from now.

SRH vs KXIP Toss Update

Sunrisers Hyderabad skipper David Warner won the toss and elected to bat first against Kings Eleven Punjab at the Dubai International Stadium.

Kings Eleven Punjab have made three changes to their team Prabhsimran Singh, Arshdeep Singh and Mujeeb Zadran come in for Chris Jordan, Harpreet Brar and Sarfaraz Khan

Here is what the captains had to say after the toss

KL Rahul: I was hoping I'd lose the toss but I would have wanted to bat first too. We've just not been able to close games with bat or ball. We've started well, but not closed down things. Set batsmen haven't been able to convert into bigger scores. Bowlers haven't executed their plans but we know that can happen.

David Warner: We'll have a bat. Last game while chasing, we lost a lot of wickets in the middle. And in the bowling, there were about two or three overs where they just overpitched. 170-200 has been the range of par scores. Don't know how the track will play until you are out there.

The IPL 2020 match between SRH and KXIP happens to be the twenty third encounter between the 'Kings' and 'Sunrisers' with the 'Orange Army' holding a winning edge, winning 14 out of their previous 22 encounters.
