The two finalists of this year’s IPL, Kolkata Knight Riders and Sunrisers Hyderabad are set to lock horns in a high-octane clash in Chennai today. As the game is set to kick-off at 7:30 PM today, the anticipation is building on who will be crowned the new champions of IPL.
From the ground-level reports from Chennai, it is understood that the Orange Army(SRH fan base) has taken over Chennai, a venue that has been a den for MS Dhoni’s CSK over the years.
It is understood that SRH fans have gathered in Chennai in big numbers and the support for SRH will far supersede KKR’s supporters. According to the social buzz released by Star Sports, SRH has 57% social buzz as opposed to KKR’s 43%.
The aggressive brand of circle that SRH employed under the leadership of champion Pat Cummins has made the Hyderabadi side a force to reckon with.
Coming to the pitch and conditions, a red-soil pitch is being used for this game. There will be spin and lack of bounce on this surface so run-scoring will be moderate. Chasing is likely to be easier.
The batting unit that handles the spin attack more proactively would win the game. For now, the expectation is that a cracking game of cricket is guaranteed.
