Hello and welcome to Deccan Heral'd live coverage of the first of two games on this Super Sunday, where KKR play hosts to SRH.
The home side has endured a major slump of late, and consequentially, have tinkered their line-up to a notalbe extent, with the likes of Robin Uthappa and Kuldeep Yadav missing out.
