IPL 2020 KKR vs SRH, Match Preview, Pitch report, Weather forecast: The 8th match of IPL 2020 is to be played today between Kolkata Knight Riders and Sunrisers Hyderabad at Sheikh Zayed Stadium, Abu Dhabi.

First matches for both the teams in IPL 13 has not been good. While Kolkata Knight Riders lost their first match against Mumbai Indians by 49 runs, Warner-led Sunrisers Hyderabad lost to Royal Challengers Bangalore by 10 runs in a very exciting match. Now, the team that wins the 8th match of IPL 2020 will be able to open their account in the points table.

Despite the defeat in the first match, there is almost zero possibility of any major changes in the team of Sunrisers Hyderabad and Kolkata Knight Riders. However, Kane Williamson might be seen making a comeback in the Hyderabad team, given their weak middle order.

But it is important for Williamson to be fit before the match, because Warner had revealed about his injury before SRH's first match. Another change in the team can be Sandeep Sharma, who proved to be very expensive in the first match with the ball.

If we talk about Kolkata Knight Riders, there is a high chance that there will be no change in the team. KKR skipper Dinesh Karthik had defended his players despite a crushing defeat against Mumbai Indians.

The senior wicket-keeper batsman had said that players cannot be excluded from the team on the basis of just one match. Karthik also favored Morgan and Cummins, who failed to perform in the first match.
