The 3rd match of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 will see David Warner-led Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) locking horns with two-time champions Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). The two sides will face each other on April 11 (Sunday) at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai.

Let’s look at our fantasy 11 predictions for this clash and here are top picks for SRH vs KKR.
Team Preview – Sunrisers Hyderabad
The ‘Orange Army’ Sunrisers Hyderabad is one of the most consistent teams in the history of the tournament. SRH has qualified for the playoffs in each of the last five seasons while finishing at the third spot in the last edition. They picked Kedar Jadhav during this year’s auctions to add firepower to their middle-order. Afghan spinner Mujeeb Ur Rahman also came to their side to further strengthen their spin attack.
Team Preview – Kolkata Knight Riders
After winning two titles under the captaincy of Gautam Gambhir, Kolkata Knight Riders’ performance witnessed a sharp decline. Last year too, they failed to make it to the top four after finishing at the fifth spot in the Points Table. They won some great matches in 2020 but missed out on a playoffs berth by a whisker. However, KKR added Shakib Al Hasan, Ben Cutting and Harbhajan Singh as their top picks during the IPL 2021 auctions.
