In-form Sunrisers eye first away win

Rising Pune Supergiant v Sunrisers Hyderabad
Pune, April 22, 2017
Start time 16000 local (1030 GMT)

This season: The two sides will be meeting for the first time in IPL 2017
Overall: Both sides have won one game apiece

These two teams have been on opposite ends of the scheduling coming into the game. Rising Pune Supergiant have had a five-day break to rejuvenate themselves after a win against Royal Challengers Bangalore in Bengaluru, while Sunrisers Hyderabad will be playing their third game in six days.

Pune will be buoyed by the performances of their Indian players - Rahul Tripathi, Manoj Tiwary, Shardul Thakur and Jaydev Unadkat - in their win over Royal Challengers that broke a three-match losing streak. Meanwhile, Kane Williamson's exceptional knock at No. 3 in his first game of the season could mean more time on the bench for Ben Cutting. While Sunrisers are sitting pretty with four wins, they would do well to note their two losses have come away.

Rising Pune Supergiant: 1 Ajinkya Rahane, 2 Rahul Tripathi, 3 Steven Smith (capt), 4 Manoj Tiwary, 5 MS Dhoni, 6 Ben Stokes, 7 Dan Christian, 8 Shardul Thakur, 9 Jaydev Unadkat, 10 Imran Tahir, 11 Ankit Sharma

Sunrisers Hyderabad: 1 David Warner (capt), 2 Shikhar Dhawan, 3 Kane Williamson, 4 Moises Henriques, 5 Yuvraj Singh, 6 Deepak Hooda, 7 Naman Ojha, 8 Bipul Sharma, 9 Bhuvneshwar Kumar, 10, Rashid Khan, 11 Siddarth Kaul
