Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) will look to ride on their winning momentum when they take on an inconsistent Punjab Kings (PBKS) in a must-win match at the Dubai International Stadium on Friday. KKR are ranked fourth with 10 points in the table and will look to retain their position in the top half, while PBKS, with just two points, will be desperate to win its remaining three matches.
Considering the teams, Prasidh Krishna may be the only change with Sandeep Warrier looking the only out-of-line KKR bowler in the current line-up. Venkatesh Iyer, Shubman Gill, skipper Eoin Morgan, Nitish Rana, Dinesh Karthik and Rahul Tripathi will be responsible for posting a good total while the likes Sunil Narine, Varun Chakravarthy, Lockie Ferguson and Krishna will take the mantle of bowling.For PBKS, Chris Gayle won’t be available for PBKS’ remaining IPL 2021 matches and as it looks like Moises Henriques should get his first match in the UAE leg of IPL 2021. Mayank Agarwal, who missed the last match because of a stiff back, should come in for Mandeep Singh. KL Rahul, Nicholas Pooran, Ravi Bishnoi and Nathan Ellis will hold the key to Punjab’s chances in the match.The intensity of the contest is expected to be high at the Ring of Fire in Dubai.KKR vs PBKS Probable XIs:Kolkata Knight Riders: Shubman Gill, Venkatesh Iyer, Rahul Tripathi, Eoin Morgan (c), Nitish Rana, Dinesh Karthik (wk), Sunil Narine, Lockie Ferguson, Tim Southee, Varun Chakravarthy, Prasidh KrishnaPunjab Kings: Lokesh Rahul (c) (wk), Mayank Agarwal, Aiden Markram, Nicholas Pooran, Moises Henriques, Deepak Hooda, Harpreet Brar, Nathan Ellis, Mohammed Shami, Ravi Bishnoi, Arshdeep Singh
