What Have The Two Teams Done So Far?

Both sides have won played four and won two, and it’s just the net run-rate that has Hyderabad at fifth and Punjab at sixth.
Quick PBKS vs SRH Preview
As mentioned earlier, both these teams are on four points from four matches and enter this encounter with a lot of confidence having won their previous game.
While Punjab Kings were stunning in their victory over Gujarat Titans, Sunrisers Hyderabad shocked the defending champions Chennai Super Kings.
Punjab’s win against the Titans was down to a brazen rearguard action from Ashutosh Sharma and Shashank Sharma. The two added 43 off 22 balls for the eighth wicket with the latter of those two finishing unbeaten on 61 off 29 balls.
This, from a batter who allegedly was mistaken for another namesake (although PBKS have denied this!).
Punjab’s problems, however, continue to revolve around their bowling and their inability to restrict their opposition could prove to be an issue against a side that has piled up the misery on their opposition.
Having hammered 277 against Mumbai Indians, the Sunrisers chased down 166 in a mere 18.1 overs against the Super Kings thanks to a 12-ball 37 from Abhishek Sharma and Aiden Markram’s half-century.
With their bowling more or less firing all cylinders, Sunrisers Hyderabad have shown they are capable of mowing down the best in the business and it might not get any easy for Punjab here.
