KKR vs SRH IPL 2024 Qualifier 1: In just a few hours, the two batting powerhouse KKR and SRH will lock horns in the IPL 2024 Qualifier 1 with an aim to seal the ticket for the IPL 2024 Finals. Table Topper KKR will be missing their start opener Phil Salt and this is going to create some challenges for the team management. This post reads KKR's Strongest Playing 11 against SRH prediction in IPL 2024 Qualifier 1.

The stage of Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad is all set for the epic clash, and the weather forecast is also favorable for this match. Ahmedabad had a few showers a couple of days back but on the day of IPL 2024 Qualifier 1, the temperature of the city will reach over 45?C making it tougher for the players.

Both teams have already landed in Ahmedabad and had a good practice session last night. Sunrisers Hyderabad didn't have any English players in their starting lineup so they will remain unaffected by the withdrawal of English players. KKR, on the other hand, had one of the main frontline batters Phil Salt in their lineup and now he went back to his country for World Cup Preparations.

Below is the KKR's Strongest Playing 11 against SRH prediction in IPL 2024 Qualifier 1:

When Phil Salt is absent, KKR will walk to another right-handed opening batter who has an equally aggressive approach and almost similar skillset. Rahamanullah Gurbaz is the first player that hits the mind and he might be the perfect replacement for Phil Salt in the upcoming important matches for KKR.

He will join the party with Sunil Narine at the top who has been phenomenal this year with bat and ball. He is the highest run-getter for KKR with 461 runs in 12 games he played and he smashed those runs with an average of around 40 and a strike rate of over 180.

However, they have a choice of Nithis Rana for the number 3 batter but there are strong chances that they might go with Angkrish Raghuvanshi as he is the one playing in most of the matches and put up a good display with the bat.

Skipper Shreyas Iyer and Venkatesh Iyer are the next two in the lineup and this makes them one of the most stable and aggressive cores in batting. Four out of the top five are in good touch and it will be a test for Rahamanullah Gurbaz.

Rinku Singh and Ramandeep Singh are the other two Indian players who have abilities to smash the ball out of the park in the death overs. Then, the nightmare for death bowler, Andre Russell makes his place as an all-rounder. We are yet to see a rampage by this beast in TATA IPL 2024 but he is a good knick.

Harshit Rana and Mitchell Starc will spearhead the bowling department and Vaibhav Arora will join them as an impact player. This trio has achieved massive achievements this year and they also have a mystery spinner Varun Chakaravarthy who is currently 4th in the most wickets tally with 18 wickets.

These are the 11 players that might make their spot in the Knight's playing 11 in the KKR vs SRH IPL 2024 Qualifier 1.
