Hyderabad: Eyeing their first win of the season, Sunrisers Hyderabad would be looking to put up an improved show in their home ground where they lock horns with Kolkata Knight Riders, who would also be keen to get back to winning ways today.

Sunrisers suffered a 45-run loss to Royal Challengers Bangalore in their opening game with Virat Kohli, AB de Villiers and Shane Watson having a blast with the bat.

A victory against KKR, at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, will go a long way in bringing Sunrisers’ campaign back on track.

Two-time title winners KKR also lost their last match, having started the tournament with a victory. SRH could not make it to the final four last year and the task that awaits them is again easier said than done as KKR are one of the strongest outfits in the tournament.
