Nitish Rana (441 runs at 37) and Andre Russell (16 wickets) are the leading run-getter and wicket-taker respectively for Kolkata against Hyderabad.
For Hyderabad, Rahul Tripathi (128 runs at 64) and Bhuvneshwar Kumar (24 wickets) are the top run-scorer and wicket-taker respectively versus Kolkata. Moreover, Bhuvneshwar has bagged as many as 41 wickets at the venue.
When these teams met earlier in the competition, Harry Brook (100 off 55) was the top fantasy pick.
Abdul Samad (172 runs and two catches) featured in the Best11 in five of his last six T20s.
Five of Mayank Markande’s nine dismissals in this tournament have been either bowled or LBW, thereby producing 40 bonus points.
Sunil Narine and Umran Malik have collectively managed only three wickets in their last five T20s.
After three outings in Hyderabad this season, Abhishek Sharma’s scores read 0, 1, and 5.
