Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) have already secured a playoff spot after their match against Gujarat Titans was washed out. Despite this, Pat Cummins will aim to win the game to secure second place in the table, hoping that KKR can defeat RR in the second match of the day.
The Punjab Kings (PBKS) received a significant boost from Sam Curran, whose performance led to a victory over the Royals. This win ensured that PBKS finished above Mumbai Indians in the standings. With LSG’s win over MI, PBKS are no longer at risk of finishing at the bottom of the table and can play without pressure on Sunday.
