Toss Sunrisers chose to bowl v Knight Riders

Sunrisers Hyderabad captain Kane Williamson decided to field first against Kolkata Knight Riders in the second day game of the season at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Uppal. The home side are unchanged, while the Knight Riders have made three changes.

They have dropped Robin Uthappa, Kuldeep Yadav and Prasidh Krishna, and replaced them with Rinku Singh, KC Cariappa and Prithvi Raj, the 21-year old left-arm pace bowler making his IPL debut.

It is a crucial game for the Knight Riders who have lost their last four games. Sunrisers, on the other hand, are coming off a win against the Super Kings that helped them break a three-match losing streak.
