Punjab Kings vs Sunrisers Hyderabad Prediction & Betting Tips -
by Devesh Jaganath in Indian Premier League Predictions
Match 23 of the 2024 Indian Premier League will see the Punjab Kings taking on the Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium on Tuesday afternoon. The hosts are currently in sixth place in the league standings, while the visitors are fifth. Since the inaugural year of the IPL back in 2014, when they finished atop the group standings, the Punjab Kings have never reached the playoffs and have some work to do if they intend to change that this season. They are currently on four points after four games with a record of two wins and two losses and their net run rate currently sits at -0.220. The Kings come into this match off the back of a nail-biting victory over the Gujarat Titans that came down to the penultimate ball, which followed losses against LSG and RCB. PBKS have yet to find their best with the bat in this competition, but Kagiso Rabada has been their standout player with the ball in hand, currently on six wickets in the competition and sixth in the race for the purple cap.
Meanwhile, SRH have not reached the knockout stages of the IPL since 2020 but have made a more promising start to this campaign compared to last year when they finished bottom of the league. They are also on four points after four games, though they are above their opponents due to their superior net run rate of +0.409. While the results have not gone their way, SRH have been very good with the bat this season, scoring over 200 twice already in the competition while they chased down 165 against the Chennai Super Kings on Friday. Heinrich Klaasen has led the charge with 177 runs in the tournament, while Abhishek Sharma is not far behind with 161. The pair rank fourth and sixth in the race for the orange cap. However, SRH does need improvement with the ball, with none of their players currently in the top ten in wickets taken in the tournament. The visitors have won the last two matches against this opponent and are the marginal favourites in this one.
