Why is this a good bet?
Pooran hasn’t been quite at his best, like many of his team-mates, but this is a classy player with lots of CPL experience who knows his way around a T20 innings.
We have a lot of respect for the Kings’ opening pair of Agarwal and Rahul but Pooran is a far bigger price so it’s worth being a bit more ambitious with this one.

Sunrisers Hyderabad to win: Why is this a good bet?
The odds are pretty close but we think the Sunrisers are a far better side in just about every department.
Ok, maybe the opening partnerships with the bat are pretty even but the Kings XI certainly don’t have a spinner like Rashid Khan to bowl at an economy rate of 5 an over, which can turn a game on its head, and that could make all the difference here.
A head-to-head that reads 10 wins for Hyderabad to just four for the Kings XI tells its own story, so that’s another reason why we like David Warner’s men here.
Rashid Khan to be man of the match: Why is this a good bet?
Five wickets in five games may not seem like much but just look at his economy rate: 5 an over would be considered pretty good by ODI standards so it’s absolutely fantastic by T20 standards, even more so given that these are the world’s best T20 batsmen he’s up against here.
A few other bowlers have been getting the man of the match awards on the back of economic spells rather than wicket-taking ones so Khan could be a lively runner here.

Sunrisers Hyderabad
What’s gone wrong for the Sunrisers? Normally such a reliable outfit, they just can’t get going.
The first obvious problem is that David Warner hasn’t been at his best. This is a three-time winner of the Orange Cap, so standards are high for him but 175 runs from five innings is far below what we’d expect from a player like him.
And it says plenty about the team as a whole that Warner is their top scorer.
With the ball, only three players have an economy rate below 8.
Rashid Khan who carries on being excellent, Mohammad Nabi who they haven’t been playing because they needed an extra overseas batsman and Bhuvi Kumar who they’ve now lost to injury for the season.
They can think about bringing Nabi back in place of Kane Williamson but then their batting would be a bit weak.
Possible XI: Warner, Bairstow, Pandey, Garg, Nabi, Sharma, Samad, Khan, Sharma, Kaul, Natarajan.
Kings XI Punjab
New season, same problems.
What is it about Kings XI Punjab that they just can’t change their fortunes?
It’s certainly not in the opening spots they have problems because KL Rahul and Mayank Agarwal have both been superb. It’s just about everywhere else that there have been problems.
Big star Glenn Maxwell has been pretty useless for a man of his reputation, Sheldon Cottrell has taken a few wickets but been expensive and Jimmy Neesham didn’t do much with either bat or ball when given the chance.
It remains a mystery why they don’t play Mujeeb Ur Rahman, the world-class spinner, who practically does nothing other than play T20 franchise cricket.
But by the time they realise their mistake, it may be too late. They may already be virtually out of the tournament.
And it’s not as if any of the local players have made too much of an impact. Lots of work to do over the next few months with a view to next season..
Possible XI: Agarwal, Rahul, Pooran, Maxwell, Singh, Khan, Jordan, Brar, Bishnoi, Ur Rahman, Shami.
