Punjab Kings (Playing XI): Jonny Bairstow, Shikhar Dhawan, Liam Livingstone, Mayank Agarwal(c), Shahrukh Khan, Jitesh Sharma(w), Harpreet Brar, Nathan Ellis, Prerak Mankad, Kagiso Rabada, Arshdeep Singh
Sunrisers Hyderabad (Playing XI): Abhishek Sharma, Priyam Garg, Rahul Tripathi, Aiden Markram, Nicholas Pooran(w), Romario Shepherd, Washington Sundar, Jagadeesha Suchith, Bhuvneshwar Kumar(c), Fazalhaq Farooqi, Umran Malik
Bhuvneshwar Kumar wins the toss and elects to bat first.
Here's what Graeme Swann said about the pitch:
This is the same pitch that was used last night. It has been watered, the pitch is quite hard and 160 could be a good score.
Sunrisers Hyderabad: Abhishek Sharma, Rahul Tripathi, Aiden Markram, Nicholas Pooran, Abdul Samad, Priyam Garg, Shashank Singh, Romario Shepherd, Marco Jansen, J Suchith, Shreyas Gopal, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Sean Abbott, Kartik Tyagi, Saurabh Tiwary, Fazalhaq Farooqi, Umran Malik, T Natarajan.
The Sunrisers will be without the services of their skipper Kane Williamson, who has returned to New Zealand for the birth of his second child.
In his absence, either Bhuvneshwar Kumar, who has led the side previously or Nicholas Pooran is likely to captain the Sunrisers in their last game this season.
While Sunrisers managed to snap their five-match losing streak by eking out a narrow three-run win over Mumbai Indians, Punjab succumbed to a 17-run loss to Delhi Capitals.
The fact that Mayank Agarwal and Co. could not win two games in a row sums up their inconsistent run all season.
Sunrisers Hyderabad have already been knocked out of the competition as they have won just 6 out of 13 matches and are placed 8th on the points table. In the absence of Kane Williamson, West Indies' newly appointed white-ball captain, Nicholas Pooran or Indian seamer Bhuvneshwar Kumar are likely to lead the team.
