17.33 IST: KKR must be happy for posing a decent target for SRH after some tight bowling from the likes of Vijay Shankar (20/1), Sandeep Sharma (27/1) and Rashid Khan (28/1) in the middle overs.

However, with Shubman Gill (36), Nitish Rana (29) and Rahul Tripathi (23) not converting their good start into a big knock mean KKR think tank has plenty to worry about. It's now up to the KKR bowlers to redeem themselves after their horror show in 8-wicket loss to Mumbai Indians earlier this week.
