Saturday’s second match will see struggling Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) take on Punjab Kings (PBKS) at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium. Both teams started the second half of the tournament on a losing note, with Hyderabad suffering a defeat against Delhi Capitals and Rajasthan Royals beaten Punjab in a late thriller.
The manner of their defeats would have hurt both SRH and PBKS. Hyderabad was totally outplayed by Delhi, who beat them by eight wickets. They batted first and made just 134, while Delhi chased down the target in 17.5 overs, losing just two wickets in the process.

Why bet on Sunrisers Hyderabad
Hyderabad is at the bottom of the table, losing seven matches out of eight. Punjab, who were inconsistent even last season, won only three of the nine matches they played in this edition. Sunrisers can only reach 14 if they win the remaining six matches. The teams are occupying the bottom two places in the points table and one wrong step can spell doom, talking about the chances of qualification.
Why bet on Punjab Kings
Against Rajasthan, Punjab was slowly inching towards victory when the last two overs of the match turned the game on its head. Punjab needed eight runs off 12 balls but eventually lost the match by two runs. Kartik Tyagi bowled a brilliant 20 overs to seal the game in Rajasthan’s favor.
Kings can reach a maximum of 16 points if they win all their matches from here onwards
Final betting analysis between Punjab Kings vs. Sunrisers Hyderabad:
The IPL matches early in the 2020 season in Sharjah were heavily weighted in favor of the batsmen, with the short boundaries and flat pitches paving the way for 200-plus totals with regularity, but as the season progressed, the bowling slowed down. Considering that the SRH-PBKS match will only be the second game at this venue in the UAE leg of IPL 2021, the teams can brace themselves for a high-scoring contest.
Sunrisers have a clear advantage over the Punjab team, having won 12 times and lost only 5 games. Sunrisers have also won two of their last three games against the Kings, including earlier this year in Chepauk, where the Hyderabad team restricted the Rahul-led side to 120 before chasing it down in the penultimate over.
