Kick starting with an unusually slow match on Saturday, IPL 2019 will definitely expect some cracker contests today as Kolkata Knight Riders take on Sunrisers Hyderabad in the afternoon and Mumbai Indians face Delhi Capitals. With David Warner making a comeback after a year and Yuvraj Singh making way to yet another IPL team, the stakes will be really high.
Talking of the first encounter, David Warner might not be the captain for the Sunrisers Hyderabad but will certainly play a crucial role in team's campaign in the forthcoming days. On the other hand KKR captain Dinesh Karthik would be looking forward to perform better and make a place in the Indian line-up.
Probable Eleven (KKR): Chris Lynn, Sunil Narine, Robin Uthappa, Shubman Gill, Nitish Rana, Dinesh Karthik (c/wk), Andre Russell, Piyush Chawla, Kuldeep Yadav, Lockie Ferguson, Prasidh Krishna
Probable Eleven (SRH): David Warner, Jonny Bairstow, Wriddhiman Saha, Manish Pandey, Vijay Shankar, Yusuf Pathan, Deepak Hooda, Rashid Khan, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Billy Stanlake, Siddarth Kaul

The second encounter is between Mumbai Indians and Delhi Capitals, where Yuvraj Singh will play after a long time and the hype is really high as nobody in the Indian line-up has performed well on number four and five slots. Yuvraj has been hitting out the nets real hard and the viral videos show the amount of confidence exuberated in Yuvraj Singh.
Probable Eleven (MI): Rohit Sharma (C), Suryakumar Yadav, Ishan Kishan (WK), Yuvraj Singh, Kieron Pollard, Krunal Pandya, Hardik Pandya, Ben Cutting, Mitchell McClenaghan, Mayank Markande, Jasprit Bumrah
Probable Eleven (DC): Shikhar Dhawan, Prithvi Shaw, Shreyas Iyer (C), Colin Ingram, Rishabh Pant (WK), Sherfane Rutherford, Axar Patel, Rahul Tewatia/Amit Mishra, Sandeep Lamichhane, Ishant Sharma/Avesh Khan, Trent Boult
