The Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) have not included young leg-spinner Suyash Sharma in their starting XI for their 10th game of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2023) against the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) taking place at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad. It has become really important for the Kolkata Knight Riders to return back to winning ways with some consistency in this 16th edition of the IPL because they have conceded a total of 6 defeats so far and now need to win all of their remaining 5 matches to keep their IPL 2023 playoffs hopes alive.
SRH vs KKR: Why is Suyash Sharma Not Playing Today’s Match IPL?
During the toss, it was stated that right-arm leg spinner Suyash Sharma is not part of the starting KKR playing 11 for today’s SRH vs KKR match. Interestingly, he is absolutely fit and part of the five substitute members list out of which one can be used as an Impact Player at any moment in the encounter. While making his IPL debut earlier this season against Royal Challengers Bangalore, Suyash has bowled really well having taken a total of 9 wickets from 7 games at a fine economy rate of less than 9. Therefore, he is very much likely to be used as an Impact Player by KKR in the second innings when they come out to bowl.
“We’ll bat first. Looks like a good wicket, hopefully we’ll post a good score and then restrict them. We’re not thinking too much ahead, just have to take game-by-game. We have had injuries in many games, but they’re back now. We’re playing an extra batter due to the impact rule, need to get those 10-15 extra runs. Two changes – Jason Roy is back in place of David Wiese, Vaibhav Arora replaces Jagadeesan,” said Kolkata Knight Riders captain Nitish Rana during the toss.
