" I was hoping I'd lose the toss but I would have wanted to bat first too. We've just not been able to close games with bat or ball. We've started well, but not closed down things. Set batsmen haven't been able to convert into bigger scores. Bowlers haven't executed their plans but we know that can happen. Guys know that we've made mistakes and everyone is keen to come back stronger. Three changes - Prabhsimran, Arshdeep and Mujeeb come in for Jordan, Brar and Sarfaraz ".
" We'll have a bat. Last game while chasing, we lost a lot of wickets in the middle. And in the bowling, there were about two or three overs where they just overpitched. 170-200 has been the range of par scores. Don't know how the track will play until you are out there. One change - Khaleel in for Kaul".
Kings XI Punjab (Playing XI): KL Rahul(c), Mayank Agarwal, Mandeep Singh, Nicholas Pooran(w), Simran Singh, Glenn Maxwell, Ravi Bishnoi, Arshdeep Singh, Mujeeb Ur Rahman, Mohammed Shami, Sheldon Cottrell
Sunrisers Hyderabad (Playing XI): David Warner(c), Jonny Bairstow(w), Manish Pandey, Kane Williamson, Priyam Garg, Abhishek Sharma, Abdul Samad, Rashid Khan, Sandeep Sharma, K Khaleel Ahmed, T Natarajan
SunRisers Hyderabad won the toss and decided to bat first
The pitch at Dubai International Stadium is favourable for bowling. Spin bowlers will get a lot of help from Dubai's Pitch.
Toss has been an important factor this season. Teams batting second have failed to chase the target at most number of occasions. Winning the toss is significant in deciding the result of the match.
SunRisers Hyderabad are currently placed at the sixth spot in the Points Table with two wins and three loss. On the other hand, Kings XI Punjab are at the bottom of the Points Table with one win and four loses.
Today's venue is Dubai International Stadium in Dubai. The ground is big in size and the pitch at the stadium is favourable for bowlers. Bowlers will dominate today's match.
It's Match 22 of #Dream11IPL where @SunRisers will take on @lionsdenkxip.

In all the matches KXIP have played this season, they have done excellent in batting. KL Rahul and Mayank Agarwal are in the race of orange cap. This disturbing thing for Kings XI Punjab is their inconsistent bowling line up. Apart from Mohammed Shami, no other bowler has been consistent for KXIP. If KXIP want to return to winning way their bowlers need to perform well today.
SunRisers Hyderabad leading wicket-taker Bhuvneshwar Kumar has been ruled out of the season due to ankle injury. He was the backbone of SRH bowling attack, in his absence, Rashid Khan has all the more responsibility on his shoulder. In front in-form batsmen like- KL Rahul and Mayank Agarwal SRH might miss the disciplined bowling of Bhuvneshwar Kumar.
