Sunrisers Hyderabad

SRH are already qualified for the playoffs but a win against PBKS will increase their chance to finish second in the table. Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma's opening pair has been one of the most lethal duos of the tournament and they are expected to open Hyderabad's inning.

Aiden Markram is unavailable, but Nitish Kumar Reddy hasn't disappointed with his batting. Shahbaz Ahmed and Abdul Samad are playing the role of the finisher and have done the job in some matches.

Heinrich Klaasen has played some match-winning innings this season and would like to replicate that if SRH needs him that way against GT. SRH have been part of many high-scoring games. But, captain Pat Cummins, Bhvneshwar Kumar, and T Natarajan have been very good with the ball in hand.

The pacers have scalped wickets and they are in top form. Bhuvi has got his form back and bowling some extraordinary spells in the last few matches.

Punjab Kings

PBKS are coming into this game after a huge win against Rajasthan. Bairstow and Prabhsimran haven't been good lately for Punjab. The opening pair has been hot and cold for the entire season and Punjab haven't been able to improve. Atharv Taide may replace Bairstow.

Jitesh Sharma's struggle continues. He is a huge flop for PBKS this season. Shashank Singh couldn't contribute with any runs in the last match but he has been brilliant this season.

Rilee Rossouw has played some important knocks and he will be also there for Punjab's last game of the season. Liam Livingstone is the most confusing player for Punjab as he has been in and out of the team the whole season. Ashutosh Sharma is also expected to feature on Sunday and he has gotten his form back.

Sam Curran delivered a match-winning performance against RR. He scalped two wickets and also played a brilliant 63-run inning. He also hasn't been consistent this season but is one of the key players of Punjab Kings.

Harshal Patel picked up two wickets in the previous game. Harshal is improving game by game and has already scalped 22 wickets this season. Arshdeep Singh got one while Rahul Chahar picked up two wickets after delivering a very tight 4-over spell.
