The first match on a double-header weekend is a clash between the Sunrisers Hyderabad and the Kolkata Knight Riders in the Dream11 Indian Premier League 2020. SRH will be looking to put an end to the two game losing streak. The David Warner- led side will be looking to give it right back after their embarrassing defeat to KKR in their last fixture on 26 September.
On the other hand, we have the Kolkata Knight Riders who have to deal with the captaincy swap mid-way into the season. It’s clear that they have missed Sunil Narine big time and will be looking for some consistency in the team selection too. A lot will be at stake for SRH and another loss here could make things all the more difficult for them.

Pitch Report:
The pitch at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium is a touch-two paced with the bowlers enjoying the conditions out in the middle. While the spinners have been successful in getting some turn off the surface, the seamers have relied more on variations and that has done the trick, at least until now.
Both the captains will look to bat first upon winning the toss, considering the heat in Abu Dhabi in the afternoon. A score of anything above 160 could be a fighting total on this surface.
