At the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) will be hosting their final game of the league stage and are going to face the Punjab Kings (PBKS). This game is going to be the 69th game of the tournament and is the penultimate encounter of the league stage of the competition.
Both teams know their fate regardless of the result of tomorrow's match. Sunrisers Hyderabad have qualified for the playoffs but a win tomorrow can propel them into a position of finishing in the top two. Meanwhile, Punjab Kings have nothing much to lose and would be looking to end a dismal campaign on a winning note.

Here is the Predicted Playing XI for PBKS vs SRH:
Openers: Prabhsimran Singh, Atharva Taide

Even though it has not been an impressive campaign of any sort for Prabhsimran Singh, the franchise would be backing the opener to pile on the runs in the final game of the tournament. This might be the last opportunity for the opener to stand a chance of retention ahead of next year’s mega auction.
With Jonny Bairstow leaving for national duty, it would be the right occasion to test out Atharva Taide once again. The batter started just one game till now and made a decent score in a low-scoring encounter. With no news on the recovery of permanent skipper, Shikhar Dhawan, the Punjab Kings would be tempted to try out Taide once again.

Middle Order: Rilee Rossouw, Shashank Singh, Jitesh Sharma (C, WK), Ashutosh Sharma

The resurgence of Rilee Rossouw over the past two matches has been exhilarating to watch. The South African batter has been piling on the runs for the franchise and his aggressive knocks at number three help the side gain momentum in the innings. He will be looking to continue his good run of form against the Sunrisers Hyderabad tomorrow afternoon.
One of the players who had a remarkable breakthrough campaign in the Indian Premier League has to be Shashank Singh. The middle-order batter has cemented his place in the Punjab Kings playing XI and would be looking to finish off his great season with another stellar knock. The middle-order batter has the patience and temperament to play according to the situation which is a great asset to have for any team.
In the absence of Sam Curran, it is expected that Jitesh Sharma will be leading the side for the final game of the season. Even though it has been a dismal season so far for the wicket-keeper batter, he would be hoping to end a sorry campaign with a great knock and lead his side to a much-needed win at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad.
Along with Shashank Singh, Ashutosh Sharma has also made a spot for himself in the team through his amazing performances throughout the season. The youngster would be hoping to produce a great knock for his side in the absence of some key overseas players as well as seniors of the franchise.

All-Rounder: Harpreet Brar

The bowling all-rounder might be drafted back into the side at the expense of Sam Curran to give the team the right balance for the game against Sunrisers Hyderabad. He can help out the side lower down the order since he has some experience in batting. Along with that, his off-spin bowling can assist the team in crucial situations of the match.

Bowlers: Harshal Patel, Rahul Chahar, Nathan Ellis, Arshdeep Singh

Currently leading the race for the purple cap, Harshal Patel is once again getting the job done with the ball for his side. The pacer has been great during the middle overs and during the death this season and even though his economy can be an issue, he makes up for it with his wicket-taking ability. The speedster has a lot of variations up his sleeve and would look to add more wickets to his tally this season.
Since coming back into the team, Rahul Chahar has become the side's go-to bowler on any occasion. Even though he sometimes leaks a lot of runs, if he has his rhythm, he can surely be a dangerous bowler. The leg-spinner would be looking to end the campaign on a great note for his side.
After impressing in his first game this season during the encounter against Rajasthan Royals, Nathan Ellis would be looking to continue his good run and help his side win once again. He would be facing fellow Australians in the opposition and might be looking to impress his international teammates ahead of the T20 World Cup in less than two weeks' time.

Speaking about the T20 World Cup, Arshdeep Singh will also be on the flight to the West Indies and United States of America as he has been chosen for the Indian team. Although he has been either a hit or a miss this season, he has been able to perform more or less whenever his side is in trouble. The speedster would look to end the campaign with a flurry of wickets for his franchise.
PBKS’s Predicted XI against SRH:
Prabhsimran Singh, Atharva Taide, Rilee Rossouw, Shashank Singh, Jitesh Sharma (C, WK), Ashutosh Sharma, Harpreet Brar, Harshal Patel, Rahul Chahar, Nathan Ellis, Arshdeep Singh.
