3. Rahul Tripathi vs Harshit Rana

Sunrisers Hyderabad batter Rahul Tripathi has been a huge revelation ever since he has made his way into the team. The 33-year-old has been giving Hyderabad the chance to keep the run-scoring momentum even if their openers fail to fire.

Harshit Rana has been one of the most impressive bowlers this year with his ability to bowl with pace and aggression. This player battle on Sunday will be one to watch out for as both the players are naturally attacking and will want to dominate proceedings.

2. Pat Cummins vs Shreyas Iyer 

It is the battle of the two captains who want to outdo each other and win the IPL title. Shreyas Iyer has historically had issues against the short ball and has fallen to the ploy on many occasions.

Pat Cummins has been an underrated bowler this year in the IPL and has been at the core of many SRH’s wins. The 31-year-old will look forward to this player battle and wants to dismiss the KKR skipper in the finals to put his team in a strong position.
