Match Analysis
The pitch in New Chandigarh promises to serve up a run-heavy surface offering reliable bounce and nice pace. The outfield is fast and will reward quality strokes through the gaps, with the powerplays being key to setting or chasing.
There will be some early life for the pacemen, and with the Sunrisers’ top-order struggles the Kings will be looking for early breakthroughs.
The Sunrisers do have some big hitters who can take advantage of the relatively small boundary, although there are wider and longer parts so hitters need to select their hitting areas with care. Scores over 200 are possible with a good batting effort, with an average innings score sitting in the mid-170s.
