SRH has successfully won two of their chases and will now play their first game of the IPL 2022 at Brabourne Stadium. This was one of the best batting spots we’ve seen this season and so the responsibility will be on SRH batting to deliver again. Abhishek Sharma got into form at just the right time and we’ve also seen Kane Williamson, Nicholas Pooran and Rahul Tripathi get runs in the last few games. These bode well for SRH and they will look to build on this momentum. With Aiden Markram and Shashank Singh in the line-up, SRH have a strong lower order but Washington Sundar could miss this match having torn the strap on his right hand. This order looks good when things take a back seat, but a good team can certainly find some weaknesses. Abhishek Sharma had many runs from Edges in the previous match. Kane Williamson had several chances and Nicholas Pooran will always play high-risk cricket. Luck won’t always be on his side and that could be a problem. One reason SRH has started winning is because their bowling offense is coming together. Bhuvaneshwar Kumar and T Natarajan bowl well and the addition of Marco Jansen to the line-up seems to be doing the trick as well. Once again, Sundar’s absence from the starting XI will affect the team’s balance and that could be a problem. There are a number of match winners in the SRH lineup, but we don’t think their individual matchups against KKR are very favorable.
The bronze medalist of the last season could not hold these positions and today they are closer to the equator of the standings. Monaco failed the start of the season when they did not qualify for the Champions League. They had no luck already in the second most important tournament in Europe. In the playoffs, the southerners lost to the Portuguese Braga with a score of 1:3 in the sum of two meetings already at the 1/8 final stage. In the League1 tournament the Red-Whites have 14 victories and eight peaceful outcomes after the 31st round, which brought 50 points and sixth place in the standings. In the last three matches of the French championship, the Monegasques beat PSG (3:0), Metz (2:1) and Troyes (2:1) in turn. The line of attack showed itself well, which differed 47 times. Today Diatta, Maetsky, Maripan and Fabergas, who has a muscle injury, will not be able to take part in the game. More today’s match prediction can be obtained from the link provided.
