IPL 2022, KKR vs LSG: Kolkata Knight Riders Eye Big Win To Keep Slim Hope Alive, Lucknow Super Giants Look To Seal Play-Off Berth
Kolkata Knight Riders need a big win in their final round-robin match to keep their slim IPL play-off hopes alive, while Lucknow Super Giants will look to seal their position in the top four when the two teams face off, on Wednesday. With seven losses and six wins, KKR are placed at the sixth spot with 12 points and they will not only have to win but do it with a big margin and then hope that other results go their way to salvage any hope of sneaking into the knockout stage.
IPL 2022, KKR Predicted XI vs SRH: Will Pat Cummins Injury Open Up A Slot For Sam Billings?
Kolkata Knight Riders were dealt a heavy blow in the form of an injury that has ruled all-rounder Pat Cummins out for the rest of IPL 2022. Cummins starred with the ball in their last match, a 52-run win over Mumbai Indians, and his absence would mean that their team balance takes a big hit when they take on SunRisers Hyderabad with an eye on keeping their playoff hopes alive. With Andre Russell, Sunil Narine and Tim Southee having played the last match -- and all of them likely to retain their places -- it would open up a chance for KKR to bring in an extra batter, possibly in the form of Sam Billings. This would see Sheldon Jackson potentially replaced by Shivam Mavi.
IPL 2022, KKR vs SRH: Unsettled Kolkata Knight Riders face stern Sunrisers Hyderabad test
Kolkata Knight Riders’ campaign in this IPL can be summed up in this one sentence. The side fielding the maximum number of players in this tournament is yet to find the perfect combination. Although they are still in with a mathematical chance to make the playoffs, they no longer have their fate in own hands. Even if they win their remaining two games, they will need many other results to go their way in order to travel to their home at the Eden Gardens for the last phase of the IPL. On the contrary, Sunrisers Hyderabad have a lot at stake when the two sides clash at the MCA Stadium in Pune on Saturday. The Kane Williamson-led side has often punched above its weight in this edition to remain in fray for a top-four finish.
