What's the story

In-form Kings XI Punjab will travel to Hyderabad to take on Sunrisers Hyderabad in match number 25 of 2018 IPL. A victory tonight would take the visitors to the top of the IPL table, however, it's not going to be an easy task against Williamson led team. So who holds the edge in this contest? Here are the head-to-head records and probable XI.

Information

Williamson masterminded a brilliant win against MI

Kings XI will be wary of the fact that Sunrisers Hyderabad were impressive against Mumbai Indians. Batting first, Sunrisers posted just 118, a total way below the par score. But brilliant captaincy from Kane Williamson ensured that Sunrisers pulled off a 31-run victory.

Head-to-head

History favors Sunrisers Hyderabad

The two sides have met each other on 11 occasions with the Sunrisers Hyderabad emerging victorious on 8 occasions, whereas, the Kings XI Punjab have won only 3 of the encounters.
