IPL 2016: Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Kolkata Knight Riders betting preview
Bottom side Sunrisers Hyderabad will look to secure their first win of the season against the Kolkata Knight Riders in the first of two games on 16 April. Hyderabad's bowling attack was taken apart in their opening match, as brutal hitting from Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers took Royal Challengers Bangalore to a mammoth total of 227. The visitors were unable to keep pace with the required run rate during their chase and fell short by 45 runs. The Sunrisers are backed at 11/10 to win their first home game of the season by Betfair.
Kolkata were undone by a brilliant unbeaten 84 from Rohit Sharma, after they had set an imposing target of 188 batting first against the Mumbai Indians. The visitors are 5/6 to get back to winning ways at Hyderabad.
Sunrisers captain David Warner top-scored against RCB with a 25-ball 58 and is 11/5 to repeat that feat against the Knight Riders. Shikhar Dhawan is placed at 16/5 while England T20 captain Eoin Morgan is at 5/1 to top the run charts.
Gautam Gambhir and Robin Uthappa are evenly-priced at 12/5 to lead with the bat for Kolkata.
