Lying ninth in the 10-team league, Sunrisers Hyderabad still nurture hopes of making it to the playoffs. They believe they can win five games from the next six matches. SRH have recorded three wins and five losses so far.

The hosts clash with Chandrakant Pandit-coached Kolkata Knight Riders in Thursday’s night match at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium. The visitors would be hoping to avenge their Eden Gardens defeat when they were derailed by Harry Brook’s blazing century.
